Let it snow - part 2

With temperatures in the mid-40s the snow is sinking quickly
Posted by Fred Steiner on Wednesday, February 24, 2021

Lots of photos in today's story -
Today temperatures reached the mid-40s and the past snowfall is a melting minor glacier.

Despite that here are more snowfall memories from Ada Icon viewers. You'd find animals, snow plows, rural scenes, at least one dog attempting to navigate the snow plus a polar bear. Ada can't have snow without polar bears.

In addition, Jenn Hiester provides four scenes as today's featured photos. Thank you to all the viewers who participated in this photo project.

When icicles hang by the wall

Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, February 23, 2021

Howard Fenton may have had in mind Willliam Shakespeare's "when icicles hang by the wall... when all aloud the wind doth blow." Or, maybe he simply saw these icicles hanging from his window and decided to take this photo. The icicles photo is among 20-plus snow photos sent to the Icon from viewers this week showing Ada's 9.5-inch snow fall.

Let it snow

Here's how Ada Icon viewers will remember February's 9.5 inches of snow
Posted by Fred Steiner on Tuesday, February 23, 2021

More photos tomorrow -
The past few weeks haven’t been much fun as temperatures stayed below freezing for two weeks in tandem with the  heavy snowfall.

Despite that, Icon viewers answered the call for snow photos last week. We received nearly 20 photos and every one of them has a story to tell.

When 9.5 inches of snow covers the ground what else is there to do expect go outside and play – if you are a dog.

Or, you can take photos of the snow from inside your house or outside, especially after you’ve successfully cleared your drive way.
