While I visited La Selva Biological Station last Sunday (see photo of me in yesterday’s blog), it was snowing heavily back home in Pittsburgh for an official single day total of 11.2″. The snow was even deeper in other parts of the county: 14.2″ in Ross Twp and 13.8″ in Bridgeville.
Since it was impossible to go anywhere by vehicle on Monday, the young at heart decided to have fun in Oakland by sledding down the Mellon Institute steps.
People were not the only ones to slid on their bellies. Check out the penguins at the Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium!
The winter storm hitting the Carolinas today will not affect Pittsburgh. We have sunshine and very cold temperatures: High 15°F, Low 0°F (-17.8°C).
