My internet connection was out for a day and a half this weekend, and another winter storm advisory takes effect tomorrow morning. So, in case I get cut off again, here are a few images from between snowstorms.
On Saturday morning, I awoke to find that my usual view of downtown Pittsburgh looked like this:
There was about 14 inches of snow on the roof next door, and the tree, which usually does not obscure the window at all, was bent all the way down to the neighbor's roof with snow.
My downstairs neighbors' deck as seen from my kitchen window.

The patio of a local restaurant laden with snow. The palm tree just kills me! By luisma.

The gazebo outside the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh South Side, half buried in snow. By luisma.

The Birmingham Bridge from East Carson Street. By luisma.
