Did I Say 7 Inches?

Okay, if anybody is reading this has lots of snow experience, ya gotta understand that I was raised largely in Southeast Asia and Hawaii. Except for a stint in Germany and Indiana, I didn’t get much snow as a kid. Monsoons, yes. This is the most snow I’ve experienced at my own home since I’ve been an adult. Certainly the most we’ve gotten in Albuquerque since I’ve lived here. And yesterday, for the day of the year, it was a record. Period.
(My inlaws used to live at 8,000 feet in southern Colorado so I do know what “real” snow is like.)
By early this morning, the Sunport had 13 inches of snow, and was expecting another 3-4 inches today, said meteorologist Tim Shy.

Well, Laura and Dr. Gwen and Tasha the wonder dog are out walking in it right now. Earlier it was the rest of us out to one of the local hills for sledding. A rarity here and you could tell it. The hill was crowded and despite really deep snow, they were wearing it away.
Looks like it may finally have stopped.

Wowie!
Here in Austin we just got the tantalizing “possibility” of snow flurries on Xmas eve and the reality of a gloomy, rainy day instead. Xmas day was very nice, though.
Thanks for the pics.
