A Foot of snow melted in 24 hours.

We had a foot of snow and in the last 24 hours it has melted.  We have had a constant rain which has been a deluge at times.  The snow is melting fast.  My plan was to cross country ski this weekend but this rain ruined that idea.  North of Juneau they have freezing rain so we are fortunate to just be dealing with rain and not super slick ice.

Our fluffy and light snow turned into wet and heavy snow as soon as the temp warmed and the rain began.  My car just wanted to slide sideways yesterday.  I had to dig out all the wheels to get down go gravel before I would get it to move forward to the parking area I had cleared of snow.  The wet snow sucks.
