2008 Winter storm of the decade of the week

Clever title, isn't it?
Explanation: Last week alone, we had several snow falls/storms.
I believe we had a good snowfall last Wednesday, if not last Thursday.
Then last Friday evening, Hubby and I we were at Noxi's and the snow started falling harder and harder and harder. We barely made it home that night, the commuter bus getting caught several times at stops it had to make. (Thank god we had taken the bus rather than the car though, the roads were horrible. Obviously.)

Saturday morning I woke up and shovelled over an hour.
That day it snowed even more than on Friday evening. I even saw a LIGHTNING STIKE during the snowstorm!!! (Insanely rare I am certain; Personally I had never experienced it!)

Sunday morning I got up and went shovelling again, for about an hour again.
Here are pics:

About 1/2 hour later.
