Haha! A white Christmas appears inevitable! We're in the middle of a pretty significant storm for our area. The weathermen forecast 6-10 inches, and we've already had about three. At the rate that it's falling, we may end up with a foot. It will be my second white Christmas out of 27, my first out of five in New York, and my second out of six north of the Mason-Dixon line.

Earlier in the week we had another significant icing - so much that it has been dangerous to walk around since Wednesday. We're up to four this year.
