[Magdalen] Eastern USA weather

[Susan Hagen]

I measured a full 24 inches in Bridgewater, half hour south of Jay.
Only a very light snow is falling now but there is some wind and it's
very cold.  I got the front walk shoveled as far as the driveway and
took a break to rest and eat a bite.  I'm about to go back out and see
if I can clear a path to the street.  Did I mention that I hate snow?
