Heavy Snow, All Day

Now that Spring is almost here, we are getting some of the heaviest snow of the winter. There is a good foot, perhaps more, of new snow over the last 24 hours. It is just hovering around the freezing point, so the snow is more of the wet, sticky, heavy kind.

Stripey was supposed to come home today, but the Juneau ground crew called the Petersburg ground crew and they called me, asking if I wanted Stripey loaded up or not. After considering the poor and variable weather we’ve had all day, I made the call to return him to the vet for another day. It was a good thing, because if he had been loaded up, he would be on his way to Seattle right now – not where any of us want him. We will try again tomorrow, and hope for better weather conditions.
