Snow-covered Bona Dea Trails & Sanctuary, Lake Front Drive, Russellville, Arkansas, February 9, 2011 (Pentax K-r)
This snow was from a major winter storm on February 8th and 9th, 2011.
According to the National Weather Service, “While this storm system was not as strong as the one the week before, strong frontogenetic forcing led to a narrow band of intense snowfall that remained nearly stationary for several hours near a Ponca City to Chelsea to Fayetteville line. Snowfall amounts within this band ranged from 12 to 18 inches in the western part of the band to 18 to 25 inches in the eastern part of the band.”
I had been at work for part of the day as a contracted instructor back out at the Nuclear Plant. There was almost no traffic on the roads and the snow away from the roads was untouched, pristine the likes of which we seldom get in Arkansas.
