I thought it appropriate to post my pictures of the Christmas snow storm, right as we are gearing up for another snow storm tonight. As I mentioned in my Christmas post we woke up Christmas morning to find that the power went out in the middle of the night. There was a substation to the west of us that was having problems. I am not sure if it was because of the snow or not. However, they also closed 7800s to the west of us due to the drifting snowing and so many cars sliding off the road. Christmas morning before we left the house on our journey to visit with family I took this picture.

It's hard to see in the picture unless you zoom in, but the snow is coming down sideways. This was because it was so windy. To go clean off the car so we could leave Jon got all bundled up.

When we were coming home on Christmas night we encountered another storm. The next morning/afternoon this is what it looked like.

We didn't drive my car over the holidays and so she got covered in snow and had to be
dug out.

Hopefully the storm coming tonight won't be as bad, but as I am typing this the news just reporting sideways snow falling in Cache Valley.
