We have well over a foot of snow out there today, and it's still coming down. Apparently this has affected the cable in our area, as our main internet connection is down. There are only a couple of times a year that my backup DSL connection comes in handy, but on occasions like today when it does, it is a godsend.

Here's an HTML artist's depiction of this morning's view from the windows in the BlueTower:
