When It Snows, It Flurries ... or Squalls

I took today off from work, so, of course, any chance of me sleeping in past 7 a.m. was buried in the new snowfall I am about to go outside and shovel.
I don't want Val to have any additional problems getting to her car to go to work, and Walker Evans needs to go to The Puppy Playpen for his weekly dog day care/romping with the pups, so of to shovel I go.
