We haven’t had more than 3 inches of snow since January 26, 2011. They are predicting 5 to 8 inches of snow in the DC area for today. The temperatures are going to plummet as the day moves into night. It started snowing this morning around 9:30. This picture was taken about an hour later. We have a light dusting but the snowflakes are now getting bigger. Luckily I don’t have to work today but that means I do have to work on President’s Day in February. I like a good snow storm when I’m ready for it. I’m ready. I can handle being in my house for a few days. Plus, it’s pretty to look at and I hope to get some nice photos as the snow piles up.

Here’s what it looked like a few hours late.
