It's here, it's gone

About 24 hours ago, I was on the phone with a friend of mine talking about how pretty the snow was and whether he should leave work early. He did, and that's a good thing, given how quickly it piled up.

Now, 24 hours later, it's nearly all gone. The only snow left in my yard are the piles that I shoveled. The roads are clear and dry, and people are out picking up their abandoned cars. Amazing what a difference a day makes sometimes.
