Meadow, Jemez Mountains, New Mexico. By Damien Spencer
The storms in New Mexico.
This winter we have had a little snow here or there but this week we are getting some snow. On Monday the first and smallest storm came through. It left about 6 to 8 inches on the ground which, is comparable to the rest of the storms this winter. The next day is snow a little but not enough to really count for anything, about 2 inches. Then we had a little break and Wednesday it decided to drop some more snow on our heads that night. We got about another 6 inches. So we had about 15 to 16 inches of snow in our front yard.

The big one is coming.
This morning we woke up to a little bit more snow, about 2 inches. Now that they day has progress a little more, we have ended up with about 5 to 6 more inches on the ground. As I was trying to remove some of the snow with my snow shovel the handle broke off, luckily I had another. Well I was lucky until that one broke as well. Here is some pictures of the weather so far but the biggest part of the storm is going to hit tomorrow and continue into Saturday. This should be fun. Look forward to more pictures of the snow in the Jemez Mountains.

A friend sent me a link to a weather site that shows how much snow we have. It says we have about 23 inches right now.
