First snow

Well, it was yesterday – December 28 – that we got our first measurable snowfall (must be at least 0.1 inches).

We had a couple of snow flurries earlier in the fall/winter, but not even enough to collect on cold cars.

Yesterday, we got about an inch of wet, heavy snow.

Forecasters said the snow wouldn’t stick to roads or sidewalks (it did – it’s how I know the snow was heavy: I shoveled).

Forecasters said rain overnight would get rid if the snow. No rain; still snowy.

Today we had temps just above freezing and a little sun (very little), so pavement is clear, but the grass is half clear, half snow.

Weird to get our first snow this late – a few years ago, we had snow on Halloween!
