Our
first good snowfall of the year! We had a dusting earlier,
which was the earliest recorded snowflakes on record, but
this was the first significant snowfall.








Our
second significant snowfall this season began Christmas
night. Last time in memory this happened was in 1986?
This one brought an inch of ice and then 10+ inches
of snow on top of that. This same system crippled parts
of Oklahoma and Arkansas under ice and brought over
20 inches of snow to Amarillo, TX. The ice wasn't as
bad here, but you can tell the trees were complaining.
The tree in the second picture shed its ice on the west
side when the sun came out, but lost a couple of branches.
The ice also took down the old cable tv line, thank
goodness for satellite tv!
