First snowstorm of the season

After receiving several visits from the snow gods, we finally saw a decent snowstorm today.  A noreaster ladled about seven inches of wet, white stuff through the afternoon.

I (Bryan) had the superbly bad timing of choosing this day to drive our daughter to New Hampshire and back for a medical appointment.  The roads were sometimes thick with snow, sometimes crunchy, and usually slippery.

Looking out at central Vermont, somewhere between Randolph and Hancock.

Back home, chunks of snow keep sliding off the roof to land on the ground with loud WHOMPFs.
