Blizzard 2010

Starting Saturday the news reports were saying nothing about the enormous blizzard that was going to hit with a vengeance Tuesday. As Tuesday drew closer the weather men started warning everyone to stay inside and cancel any travel plans.

Finally Tuesday came and businesses and Schools made plans. BYU, UVU, and USU all closed their doors at 3:00 pm. giving people time to get inside before the snow and wind was supposed to hit at 4:00 pm.

I hunkered down got some hot chocolate and waited by the window to see the fireworks( so to speak).

As you can see from the pictures below, the Blizzard was everything they said it would be :)


Just look at the amount of snow that we were hit with. I don't know about you but i'm glad i stayed inside. piles of snow this high should be left alone while we are safe inside.


I mean look. the Grass is almost half way covered. BYU was smart to cancel all the night classes.

And look. the water on the pool cover has ice floating in it. That is too cold to go outside. If there is ice in that water than imagine what would be on the roads. It is a good thing that some restaurants closed early so we wouldn't be tempted to go outside and drive on them :)

All i know is i won't forget this storm for a long long time.

LOL for like five minutes - We got that blizzard you were warned about. It was bad - wind so hard it snowed sideways. And it got down to minus 5 last night - today's high was 10 - thanks for the laugh!!!
