All night the house shook from the snow and the wind. Every few minutes, booms of thunder echoed in the distance and our frosted windows were illuminated by thunder lightning. The power flickered off a few times and I wondered how quickly the temperature would drop if we lost heat in the night.
Luckily the power held, and we woke up to a quiet world of snow, close to two feet of snow. Definitely enough snow to make a cozy couch.
Definitely too much snow to use the swingset.
Definitely enough snow for sledding and snowball thrills. Just don't tell him that this is the first Chicago schools snow day in 12 years.
