The sky fell today....well actually it was just the 
very much anticipated snow...
From our office we can see the remnants of the storm this afternoon.
Here in the Treasure Valley we had got no snow
to speak of in a long time.....
since December 2010!!!
Doesn't do much for those that sell snow shovels....
In Nampa we only get an average of 12 inches of precipitation per year....
That is part of why we are referred to as the Treasure Valley...
We have all 4 seasons and other than very hot summers our temperatures are pretty mild.
We got good news that Bogus Basin Ski Resort will be opening tomorrow...
I think that the Louder for Powder fundraiser worked....
(actually it was tonight and the snow started falling this morning!!)
We were predicted to have got between 4-8 inches of snow during this storm...
I know for many of you out there this is small potatoes...
But it is pretty big out here...
They showed folks at the local WinCo foods stocking up on groceries and supplies...
A lot of us didn't believe we would get that much....
But we did...some where between 4-6 inches
Schools closed early and Churches advised their members to stay home tonight.
Right now it is raining but it is supposed to snow
all through the night....
mixed with a bit of rain.
The roads may be icy and slick tomorrow morning...
All I can say is be careful....
Drive Smart...and that means if you are not
comfortable on the roads...
Maybe consider not driving in the snow...
Save your nerves and others around you ...
If you do drive...
Allow plenty of time to get where you are going...
And remember it isn't a race to see who can go the
fastest either!!!
Be safe...
And go and make a Snow Angel if you have time!!!
