Well this last for about 4" on top of 3" -- but not snow much is relative to years past (2, 3, 2 1/2 feet and the like). Tis a good reason to snuggle however -- won't deny *that* . . . .
Water gathering
most days I wait
through blue and sun
till dusk
or even later
and the rose has faded
to lavender, to gray
some days, the sleet
has started
and the leaves underfoot
are slick with ice
somehow I'm never sorry
and never learn
one night I waited
till the stars were out
dropped the bucket into
sound, only felt the weight
of it filling
and the night full of stars
and the river full of stars
and the bucket full of stars
come morning, the coffee
is also full of stars

A beautiful winter wonderland!
Thought you said it didn't snow too much there??
Where I'm from it sure looks like snow and more than "a little"
But then, as we all know, men are from Mars and see things through opposite ends of the telescope!
On one thing we can agree. . .perfect snuggling weather (as if any excuse is needed!!)
