Yet more snow!

The weather has continued to be somewhat intense this year. e have now experienced thundersnow which is basically a thunderstorm, but instead of heavy rain falling there is snow. When I left for work it was dry & the roads were clear, but by the time I started to make my way home there was 11-inches of snow where we live & some places in & around St Louis had over a foot & a half of snow. The highways were pretty clear though, probably no doubt due to the snowfall starting after the rush hour so MoDOT had less traffic to deal with while ploughing the road. They also have a 20-foot wide snow plough so they can clear the highways quickly. This uses extra ploughs on ballasted trailers that are towed beside the main snow plough.
