Winter storm walk: number 2

Hours of snow:  8.5
Accumulation: about 5 inches - nearer 10 in the drifts
Conditions:  White out
Walking difficulty: 4 - the drifts keep catching me out
Peeing difficulty: 2 - Under the trees is a good spot but branches are starting to fall off so I'm going to need a hard hat.
Four paw drive: Full on 4 paw required
Number of times the plow has been passed: 5 
Excitability factor: 10 - still loving it.  The plows spoil it though.  
Traffic level: Just the plows.  The county have banned cars unless they have snow tyres.
Number of snowmen: 3
Number of snowmen I've peed on: 0
Observations: I didn't realize you could lightening storms with snow.  It's going to be a long night for Mr Plow and his mates.  You have to wonder if it's worth trying to clear it when it's falling at a rate of 2 inches an hour.  There are even some home owners who are out shoveling their sidewalks.  I'm curling up in front of the fire for the rest of the evening.
