It's a blizzard!!!

For the first time in 11 years, we have a blizzard in our little county of western New York State.   The winds are howling, it's snowing hard at times and it's COLD.  This is my clematis vine right outside the front door,   We NEVER get snow, or rain, this close to our entryway!!!!

This map shows how it is a direct hit for us.....very selective....in the lake effect path off Lake Erie!

Then there is the wind chill,   It has not been above zero degrees in over 24 hours now and the wind chill fluctuates between 20 and 30 below.   

The happiest person in this house??.?   My husband who just retired last month from his outside insurance adjuster job!!!
