SNOW – February 8th

We woke up this morning to snow………….snow, it was actually snowing.  And, it kept snowing, enough to actually get a measurable amount.  We ended up with at least 3 1/2” but I don’t know how much we actually had.  By the time I got the opportunity to measure and take pictures, it had stopped snowing approximately 4 hours.  The weathermen on the news stations reported that our area probably wouldn’t really get any snow that would amount to much but they didn’t know the power behind it.  Being a Mormon, last Sunday was fast Sunday and our entire valley was fasting and praying for snow/moisture.  Some would say…….it probably would have snowed anyways but for me, I 100% believe in the miracles that come through fasting and praying to our loving Heavenly Father.  Whatever your belief, IT SNOWED……covering our area of drought with some much needed moisture!

You can see by the wood pile how much snow was left after the four hours.  Not much on the wood or vehicles but our driveway is where the measurable amount was.

These next two pictures were taken from inside our home.  It was warm enough for the snow to slide off the roof.

I know that 3 1/2 plus inches isn’t a lot of snow by hey, were thankful for any amount we receive.
