12/16/2007 Snowstorm Aftermath

Snow tallies have continued to increase this month. We had about 1.7" overnight Friday and then another 5" or thereabouts on Saturday evening. Snow totals on the ground range from 7-10", with most of the bottom part of that "snow" a hard, crusty ice from last weekend's ice storm. Below are some images from NIU and DeKalb -- shot on Sunday morning the day after the snow blanketed the area.

I love this type of frame in the early morning.

Rural DeKalb -- corn fields are now snow fields.
