I Stand Corrected

I thought that we had received 29" of snow.
Wrong.
I was reading the wrong official total [We are considered Dulles, not another town I thought we were yesterday.]
Official total for Dulles? 32.4 inches.
Okay. THAT is a lot of snow. And, surprise!, it is a record.

ETA: Guess what? SIX more inches on Tuesday.

We're getting the same amount of snow on Tuesday, too. Around 5-6 inches. I'll believe it when I see it.

I see you obviously still have power and more importantly, internet.

Stay warm.

Not to tempt fate Rudee but we live in an area of 2.5 million Virigians - only 75,000 are without power and they have above line power. We aren't really running a risk. Not that it would be a problem, we used to live in one of those areas at one time and had no power for 9 days.

Anyway - if I lost Internet? THAT would be the least of my worries. I have too much entertainment here. Now that they have gotten out of bed LOL

And yet there is no snow in Utah. Sigh.

SkippyMom said...

Um and I can spell, despite the snow blindness - watch!

Virginians

and I meant above ground power lines.

Rudee I hope you don't get snow - you don't seem to enjoy the way I do.
