Small update
According to Meteo France, the Orange Alert is set to last till about 7 p.m. tonight. They’re expecting up to a METER of snow in the mountains, but for us that probably means between 60 and 80 centimeters, since we’re only about 1200 feet high. We’re also getting high winds and will have big drifts.
Yikes!

Hope your Mom is all set, and you have “safe” passage to get to her to check. Actually, my boy would be SO jealous — he loves the snow and we traditionally get hardly any here in the Willamette Valley, OR.
1Mom pretty much stays in side during any type of “weather!” I shoveled a path to her place so I can get over there to help out.
Yes, the dogs do love the snow. Strange, because they’re not crazy about rain.
