Last week’s storm brought a significant snowfall to the area, with reports of 3 to 4 feet on the ground and over 5 feet of drifting in some locations, according to Walt. Another snowstorm is expected in the coming days, though no National Weather Service warnings have been issued at this time. We’ll post updates as conditions develop.

Thanks to Walt for sharing photos of the recent snowfall and Virginia Lakes resident, the American Pika.
