Pretty - but not much fun if you have to get someplace. I don't think I would want to be in an apartment below street level. Wet snow and ice build up can be a problem on flat roofs too. Most houses here have steep pitched roofs and no gutters. Ours is metal so we get the sound of snow sliding off. People have roof rakes to pull excess snow off and on the flat roofed buildings you'll see folks either shoveling them or haul a snow blower up and use that to clean. Falling ice is always a concern in town. Hope you get a warm spell melt this quickly. Have a safe trip home.

Wow - so much snow! - I hope you're not snowed in. It's been crazy in England too this winter. The most since 1964.

C, Thanks for the good wishes, so far we have 10 inches of slushy, ice piled up and stinging your face. I had to use a spatula to slide it off my balcony (11th floo,r the top) because the stuff was piled against my glass door and leaking in. Good luck to my downstairs neighbors. Metro tunnels are cold and windy but dry. The trains are heated. Everything is coated with this wet disgusting no fun ice, good snowballs though.

Katerina you are very thoughtful. I must explain there was 300 pounds of snow 3401 inches! and the city sank into a bewildering Epic poem that only Kazantakis and Homer could write! hahahah I ZOI!

It is going to freeze and make a nasty base for the coming snow. I have to go to work tomorrow, I work as an administrator in a luxury apartment building in Arlington, VA and I have to do rent checks and rent to whomever is nuts enough to come out. I am on the subway all underground with only 3 blocks to walk, easy.

Sometimes the slop is worse than heavy snow - and if it freezes......

Here it hasn't snowed much for a couple of weeks. But we still have around two to three feet in the yard. You have a good weekend to get projects done. Be safe.
