It's a snowy, snowy day here in Cincinnati.  Snow, sleet, freezing rain, and then snow again with falling temperatures.  It's going to make cracking the magic shell around my car a challenging prospect when I decide to venture out again.

It's not the amount snow that's unusual, but the 8 hours of sleet and freezing rain that fell between snowstorms.

I'm a little worried about the tree that's in the top left hand corner of the picture.  This tree was split in half during the windstorm that we had earlier this year.  The half that's still standing is making some creaking noises as the wind blows it around.  I'm not sure if it's the tree creaking or the ice that's on it.

But the sun has just peeked through the clouds, so hopefully it'll melt a little ice off of the tree.
