Well, it looks like we dodged the rest of the storm

It's just been normal rain--no sleet or snow so far. Of course, it could change over this morning or in the afternoon, but for now, things are slushy but workable. Still, we're not out of the woods yet. The trees are overladen, so there's plenty of chance to lose limbs or power. And the water! It's running in channels between the slush and collecting on roads. Here are some pictures from this morning:

Pine with fallen branches
(This pine has lost several branches.)

Icy trees
(It is pretty, though, the ice on the trees.)

Water on the snow
(This isn't a small creek--it's water sitting on the snow in front of my apartment.)



Also, it's supposed to get down to 18 degrees tonight, so naturally all this water is going to freeze. Tomorrow should be really fun. :)
