Another Snow Day

Above, eastbound Interstate 40 at MM 35 tonight.

" Heavy snow is expected across the Intermountain West and Rockies today." - National Weather Service.

When I got up and went for my first cup of coffee, I looked outside and we were having snow showers. It looks like we have an inch and a half of snow on the ground. Much of yesterday's snow melted. 

Overnight, there was an accident on eastbound Interstate 40 near Mile Marker 35, which is near Iyanbito. I am at Mile Marker 39. I don't know the details of the accident. 

It looks like I'll be spending part of the day indoors.
