I stumbled out the door this morning with the dogs to find an inch or so of wet snow on the ground. Then we lost power from 6 to 7:15 a.m. Fortunately it got light enough to shoot some pix before we got lights, water and heat back.
The usual scenes for the time-lapse stack…
The grasses went down in some crazy patterns. (They bounced back by the time I got home from work.)
The 12-foot Miscanthus floridulus came down to around 5 feet.
A normally completely upright willow weighted down.
Your snow looks wetter and heavier than ours did.
P.S. Do you know where you can buy seed potatoes of the Cornell bred potatoes mentioned on Garden Rant and the NYT? Keuka Gold etc.
Brrr! I thought it was supposed to be frost on the pumpkin, not snow on the pumpkin?
How!
Déjà la neige!!!
Chez moi en Suisse, on ne l’attend pas encore pour ces jours, mais souvent à la fin octobre, elle arrive…Grrrrr!
L’hiver a démarré chez toi…bon courage!
Ole Man Winter is sending a message here.
hmmm. but still the garlic must go in! I’ll need handwarmers inside my garden gloves today! Nice grass patterns–they look octupi-ish to me.
Beautiful pics, but I’m glad I’m a little farther south.
Wow, good thing nothing got really hurt. Those trees could have really suffered with more snow and more duration.
