First, the picture.  What is is?

Well, depending on where you are in the country, you may have had a very snowy winter like we have here in the Philadelphia region.

The picture above is my back yard.  Lots of snow, with a thick crust of ice from the rains, freezing rain and ice we had a few days ago.  Under the street lights at night, it almost looks magical!

Taken out of context, it certainly morphs into something it isn't!  What does it look like to you?

In the Pacific Northwest, I have seen a number of days with similar icy sheens.  Best to stay inside and relax.

Richard, I feel your pain, I just spent a month in Hungry snow, freezing rain....I can not believe how much you guys are being hammered by the weather. I can only guess no or limited showings and lots of marketing... now to my guess I thought it was the sun setting in the Middle East somewhere in the Desert.

Endre - I'd take the middle east desert right about now!  Surprisingly, I'm still getting lots of showings.  As it turns out, good pricing beats bad weather!
