Ohio Digs Out

After a day and night of snow, sleet, and freezing rain that knock out electricity - or cable and Internet access in my case - for over 300,000 homes, Ohio is starting to dig out before the next wave hits.

Dayton got a hit with over a foot of snow as these pictures show, while here in Columbus we had a heavy snowfall yesterday, which turned into freezing rain during the night and snow again this morning.

After spending 2 1/2 hours trying to clear the snow-slush-snow combo off the driveway, I think I would have opted for the 16 inches of snow.

Maybe this will teach my mother-in-law who came up from Florida to watch what she wishes for when she hopes for a white Christmas.
