What started with a horrible rainstorm Saturday night turned into freezing rain Sunday night and then into snow by this morning. School was cancelled once again. The skies cleared this afternoon and I went out back and took some pictures. The wind kicked up too and all the trees sound like giant gentle windchimes, with hundreds of tiny icicles clanging together and breaking.

Some trees can't take it anymore and are shedding branches. I hear chainsaws in the neighborhood above the snoblowers clearing sidewalks and driveways.
