Another storm!

 They predicted it... This is the 🎥Texas low that caused high winds, and 🌪tornados (CNN).

I woke up early. In the dark, the snowplough went by, as registered on the Crumbly Acres security camera. A sight for sore eyes!

And the snow fell from just before midnight to the afternoon:

The turkey had a good try to get to the feeder! We've just the one male hanging around after seeing none for months.

Then the deer folk had it in their heads to find some bird seed.

Look at little fuzzy fawn! The snow is so deep for it.

I was easing into the plan of shovelling, maybe thinking I'd wait until the snow stopped. It was going to be above zero, and that makes the snow heavier. 

We had some Amazon deliveries arriving. JB checked his email and it said Sunday or Monday. I put my feet up and played my morning games. JB checked again, after lunch, there was  package on the way. Out I hustled. There was 20 cm on the driveway (7"), with 30 cm (12") at the end of the driveway. Praise be for the snowblower! The highway looked great, though.

It was quite deep at the end of the driveway, 30 cm (12") deep.

Before, after the storm, and after shovelling!

JL used the roof rake to clear the snow off of their metal roof. This is their backyard!

I could have simply shovelled the back deck. Instead, I figured I might as well use the snowball snow for a purpose instead of just firing it overboard. I made a snow elf.

I was weary afterwards. The shower was just lovely!
