MAYBE.....Just maybe

 After lasts weeks big hype about all the snow....blah blah blah, 

 I was pretty disappointed when Rochester got none.

With that being said, 

I'm a little hesitant to get all excited about the snowfall forecasted for Rochester starting tomorrow.

As you can see I have marked up the map on this model that shows 12 inches right over Rochester.

As most of you know I love winter, snow and all the beauty it brings!

I would be thrilled to get a foot of snow, after all it is Minnesota and in Minnesota we get "Winter".

To appreciate the beauty of a snowfall

it is necessary to stand out in the cold.  ~author unknown

Not much can keep me from a winter photo opportunity. 

A few years ago I ventured out during this blizzard. 

The photo shows detail of a country road with drifting and blowing snow in every direction. 

*When I look at this photo, I see beauty and the energy of nature.

 I can hear the roar of the wind

I realize that not everyone is a fan of winter, just like not everyone is a fan of summer, spring or fall. But I try to see the beauty in every season, even summer.... my least favorite season.

We have a winter storm on the way for SE Minnesota, but I'm cautiously optimistic.

 It is predicted that Sunday into Monday will bring 9-12" of snow. 

Windchills expected to be in the -20's and temperatures are expected to be 

as low as -26 on Tuesday & Wednesday. 

It sounds like a good old Minnesota blizzard..... it's been awhile

I've been waiting!

 

Be safe to those who have to travel!
