When one and a half feet of snow fell last week, I kept seeing this blue tint in the mounds.
I enhanced this photo a bit in picasa to bring out the blue better so it actually wasn’t quite this bright.
I am not a scientific type person, so I’ve added a link underneath the photo to explain why snow (and ice) sometimes looks blue. I just thought it was unusual and pretty.
"blue" snow

I noticed this blue coloration in our snowfall last month. I don’t remember seeing it as a kid (Montana, where we had quite a lot of snow).
Are you dug out yet? That was quite a dump of snow you had.

Hi Kathryn,
Well you know about lots of snow don’t you! I’m sick of digging…waiting for the thaw. 🙂
