We have had snow on the ground in some measure since the snow/ice storm hit on Dec. 18 here in SW VA. We were without power for several days before Christmas, with some folks being out for over two weeks. The temperature has set a new record for the most consecutive days at or below freezing. Since returning to school on Jan. 6, we have missed three of the five days back. It has snowed again almost all day. We have around 4 inch of snow tonight and the current temp is 18, feels like 11....So, "Baby it's cold outside." But my furbabies have stayed nice and warm in their comfy, cozy sweaters.....
