“I had for my winter
evening walk—
No one at all with whom to talk,
But I had the cottages in a row
Up to their shining eyes in snow.” —American poet Robert Frost (1874-1963), “Good Hours,” in North of Boston (1915)
After a couple of inches
of snow on Tuesday—and more expected closer to the weekend—my area of the
Northeast may see more of the kind of scenes Frost had in mind over a century
ago.
The only problem: The temperatures
(and that pesky wind chill factor!) will be so low that many won’t want to be
out, lest they experience frostbite.

Weirdly, it's not that bad in Minnesota...
