Snow Snow and More Snow

When I came home from work on Friday there patchy snow with mostly brown grass showing. All week had felt like spring with temps between 40-50 degrees. It started snowing late Friday night. It hasn't stopped. Well, it stopped briefly twice, and the started up agian. I know La Crosse hasn't won the snowfall totals, Winona has, but it's still a lot of snow. The national weather service said La Crosse got 17 inches as of 1pm this afternoon. I think it's a little more than that. When you move it, it makes for some big piles of wet snow. If I was a kid with a lot of energy - I'd be making the bomb of a snow fort with these big snow piles. This is my home. The snow is still coming down, but more lightly now.
