This is my district and it's going to be really interesting to see who wins the primary. Early voting starts February 12.

Good morning! ❄️ Looks like I got a couple of inches. It’s beautiful and there are some interesting tracks in the driveway.
It’s light dry fluffy snow. I just cleared it all off the porch with the leaf blower. Fast and easy!

They just lowered the snow totals in my forecast from 3-6 inches to 1-3. Something called a dry slot will be over the Triangle. ❄️
I love snow but not in combo with this extreme cold, so the less we get, the sooner it will melt, I hope. 🤞
