NY made the news yet again this year. Now for records in snowfall in October and power outages. Yeah and Happy Halloween to you too! LOL! Thank god we at our place were just north of the storm path and didn't get this lovely sight to wake up to. It snowed but never stuck or built any accumulation. But the plows did go out and sand/salt the roads because it was wet and brrrr cold (in the 20s).

This photo is from my niece's place about 15 miles south of us. My sister and brothers all got the same beautiful sight.......snow, snow and more snow! They are all south of us and are in the upper elevations (1200-1500 ft), while we are more north (near the Adirondacks) and are at 900-950 ft above sea level depending on what part of the property you stand on. It sure doesn't feel that high! I think of snow warning at blah blah elevations in CA and you look at the mountain and say ok it will be covered in snow to there. I don't feel like we're in the mountains here in NY, just lots of hilly farm land!
