We have 5 inches of snow in the backyard. Trees are leaning over our house and we hear a new one fall in the woods about every 20 minutes (not counting enormous branches). It's still snowing and it's getting colder. We're lucky that our house doesn't depend on electricity for heat, because the power lines have branches on them and will likely not stay upright till the morning - our neighbor's lines are sparking. Crazy! It's the earliest snowfall in State College since they started keeping records, and since our leaves had not yet reached peak, the trees are falling down. It's supposed to snow until Saturday morning.
Some pics, for proof:
First, the ridge, with snow...
I wonder how long we'll have electricity...
That's a branch that fell, upright, with the base about 2 inches deep in the ground
The trees looming ominously over our house (from our backyard)
Bonfire pit doesn't exactly resemble fall anymore...
More downed trees in the backyard
Fall colors with snow is oddly pretty
Downed tree in our driveway
