It's snowing in Vermont

— Jay Peak, Okemo, Alpine / downhill skiing

The world is looking pretty white today. Ain't it grand?

Jay Peak ski resort is reporting 24 inches of snow in the last two days. Exaggeration? Not sure. I plan on hitting the snow tomorrow, when it will be downright chilly!

Down at Okemo, they reported that they lost power during the “Great Sleet Storm of 2008.” I hear it's a real mess in parts of New Hampshire. Lots of people without power because of ice.

Here's a timely snow video from a Vermonter who was on Church Street in Burlington today. Yes, there is snow up here in northern Vermont!
