Lake Effect

Good day everyone. This is The Daily Bone and I'm your doggie reporter Chester L. W. Spaniel. 

In case you're wondering, ghostwriter has a day off today. So everything's OK here.

Other than that, it's been a boring day!

Yawn!

It's been very cold and windy. There were a lot of sticks on the frozen ground.

As you can see, we don't even have any snow! 

We checked the weather map, and found this gigantic purple vortex. Yipes!

 This was supposed to be posted on Thursday. But then ghostwriter got a call that her Oma had fallen down in her house, and bumped her head, and had to go to the hospital. Ghostwriter had to go to Niagara Falls NY to be with Oma for a couple days. Don't worry. She's all right now, and ghostwriter is home again.

So here's all the snow we ended up getting at my house while ghostwriter was gone:

Wow! A whole couple inches!

Sometimes the Lake Effect snow clouds from Lakes Erie and Ontario get pooped out by the time they get to us here in the Rochester NY area. Or sometimes the wind makes all the snow clouds move east, instead of south. To illustrate this, here's a picture that looks towards Lake Ontario. (This was the view from Oma's hospital room window! Wow!)

Do you see that line of puffy clouds on the horizon? They're directly above Lake Ontario. They chugged east all that day and never made it to my house.

Ghostwriter was glad about that because it meant she didn't have to drive in a blizzard!
We'll keep you posted on our dear Oma's health. 

Oh, and ghostwriter said that if she squinted real hard out that hospital room window, she could see Toronto on the horizon. Hi Momo and Pinot!
