Forecast is for a snowstorm. It was due yesterday. Then it was to arrive overnight. By 9 a.m. this morning it still hadn't started snowing. We have a couple of inches of snow on the ground already. Because it hasn't fallen much below zero the snow doesn't have a crust and w/ deer grouping up and packing down trails, walking through the fields hasn't been difficult. Sooner or later though a storm will deliver enough snow to put an end to long walks until spring thaw. So Whip and I took off for the loop through the swamp today. Don't know if I've ever been able to walk it in January. It wasn't til our afternoon jaunt that I started to see the first snowflakes of the impending storm. Since the forecast was so far off on when the storm would hit, I don't know how much credence I should give to the forecast that it will only dump an inch or two.
