It is now extremely foggy here -- and was even foggier earlier before the wind picked up. Warm, humid air is sitting on top of cold snow with this predictable result.

We went to take the trash cans out for our Saturday pickup, delayed a day by Christmas. And I heard a wonderful sound -- water running rapidly down the gutter and into our yard.

The (ice) dam has busted!

We'll probably still need a new roof in the spring -- our neighbors got theirs done a few months ago -- but this should stop things from getting worse for now.

The really heavy rain missed us to the north last night so we still have deep icy snow. Not sure how much of the forecast will hit us today and tonight. They're still talking flood warnings before it's back to snow on Sunday.

We had ice dams 2 weeks after moving into our place in Cleveland - you have my sympathy.

We had fog here last night, too. It was very surreal.
