Snow Melt

We had a beautiful, albeit windy day on Thursday.  All of the snow you see in these photos I took on Wednesday melted.  You may also notice the water standing with the snow.  The melting snow has contributed to those puddles.  They are beginning to look like creeks.   

Believe it or not, there has been standing water here for months (although not quite this bad)….possibly since our monster nor’easter on November 12th of last year.  We have had incredible amounts of rain this fall and winter, with a splash of snow here and there.  The water levels in the reservoirs and lakes are higher than I have seen in a very long time.  These images were taken on my mother’s property.  You can see standing water like this all over the region.  Sometimes I wonder if we are sinking.  😕
