You wouldn't know it was the same backyard would you? You can still see the flower pot that was sitting on the stone wall yesterday. I don't know the final snow accumulation, but my guess is probably over two feet.
I couldn't believe the size of this snow drift on my car. It doesn't look like I'll be going anywhere for awhile.
The snow on top of my car is as tall as the garage roof. There is a full dormer on the back of the house that is completely covered by the drifts on the garage roof. My husband will use the roof rake after we clear the car off and move it closer to the end of the driveway.
Goodness! That's quit impressive. So glad you came through it without any damages!
ReplyDeletewow! it is so cool that you thought to take the patio pic before and then after the storm. i don't envy the digging out part!
ReplyDeleteOur son in Providence, R.I. posted a photo with a yardstick showing 34 inches!
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
That is so amazing. I think of that picture yesterday and today it is huge. The snow bank on your car is just incredible.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you guys are fine.
That amount of snow is amazing.Keep safe and warm.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! And I thought the bit we had a week ago was bad! Good luck with the clearing. Xxx
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe that all is well after that amount of snow---stay safe!
ReplyDeleteI can remember a few snows like that! We only had 5" here in Philly and it's melting quickly. Glad your electric stayed on and everyone is well! Take your time digging out:@)
ReplyDeleteWe all seemed to have survived the blizzard of 2013...very impressive drifts you have, it took me an hour to dig my car out...and another hour to get to the chickens...Winslow Homer did not venture far from the door stoop this morning. The sun shall shine tomorrow! we hope. Stay safe, Julie.
ReplyDeleteThe before and after photos are shocking. Stay warm !!!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I can't believe that drift! Pass the ibuprofen please! LOL!
ReplyDeleteWow what a difference a day makes. At least you can get to the driver's side door to the car, if you could drive it down the road the snow would probably fall off. Start singing ... Tomorrow, tomorrow, the sun will come out tomorrow and all the snow will melt away. ............ Hunker down stay warm, stay dry, thank goodness for snow blowers.
ReplyDeleteJust goes to show you what the wind did in this storm ... the drifting in our neck of the woods was epic! One whole set of windows on the hillside of the grey cottage is covered with snow ... roof rake time!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you guys came through things okay! We've kept our power, but there's rain projected for early in the week and that will make for heavy trees .... keep the extra water in the buckets and pots and make some extra food just in case!
Big hug!
I know just how you feel! UGH! We are still digging out here down on the Cape and it will definitely run into Sunday. Thank goodness you are all safe and sound. Thinking of you. Think spring. Think baby chicks :)
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a lot of snow on the roof. Did you hear we're expecting rain on Monday? I have to get out on my flat roof tomorrow to shovel it off. It's certainly pretty but what a lot of work!
ReplyDeleteI'd love just a little bit of that snow! :)
ReplyDeleteOh my, glad you are doing okay in it. It is so pretty to look at but.... comes with alot of other worries too.
ReplyDeleteGood news indeed. And it looks like your drifts are even bigger than ours!!....
ReplyDeleteWow, what a storm! I feel guilty here on on west coast because we've had such a mild winter so far! It really puts things in perspective with that picture of your car. You can really understand how one might get lost or confused under these circumstances (with everything covered). Stay warm and enjoy the snow days ahead!

Vey Good News.
ReplyDeleteYour house is SO beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I have never seen so much snow. I had heard on the radio that there was very heavy snow, but that's unbelievable! Stay in and keep warm. :)
ReplyDeleteNunca había visto tanta nieve en una casa realmente luce hermoso el tejado ,ahora quiero un poco para pasar el calor de aquí,hugs,hugs.
ReplyDeleteI had the same strange drift on the back of my car. The front was bare and the back was loaded!
ReplyDeleteWow thats some snow you had, I don't think I have ever seen that much snow.
ReplyDeleteOh my GOSH! You guys got a LOT more snow than we did here in western Mass. Whoa doggie. You guys are buried. Hope you're keeping warm and snug. Susan
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOODNESS! Now that's a LOT of snow!
ReplyDeleteYour time lapse photos were a brilliant idea. But that's serious amounts of white fluff!
It's a good job Bella is black because we would certainly loose our Muffy in that amount of white! ^..^
I feel quite guilty sitting here in our beautiful warm sunny temperature today whilst you are struggling there. Stay safe and cosy.
Just have to add that your house looks devine by the way. ;D

Wow!!! You really did get a lot of snow!! Be careful with the digging out process....just a little at a time...or hire some young kid to do it!!!
ReplyDeleteWow you got slammed! Glad your ok, hope you're dug out by now. We got about a foot and miraculously did not lose power!
ReplyDeleteWOW !! You did get a big dump of snow.... don't let your husband over do...... maybe even wait it out a bit......
ReplyDeleteWe haven't had a snow like that for several years..Your house is beautiful even with the snow..Hope you take your time getting out of that...Be safe
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! It is beautiful, but I know at least a little somethin' about what you're going through. Two years ago we had the snowpocalypse in MO. It hit the day my husband had his first back surgery. Oh my, the memories.. but we made it. Just be safe and take your time.. that is a crazy amount of snow!! -Tammy
ReplyDeleteWOW! Now that's a snowfall! Glad you've come through OK.
ReplyDeleteStay warm.
Good grief, I have never seen snow like it! The amount on your car is incredible.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are all OK, keep warm and safe Susan!

Nemo was such a big snow storm! I have a nephew in eastern Long Island that had 32 inches of snow! He is a PA and was standed at the hospital he works in for three days before he could get home. Hope the melt is happening now and you are able to drive again!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I hope you are all okay,that is SOME snow drift! Karen
ReplyDeleteWow...just gorgeous, i really love this post.
