It finally snowed!
Started this afternoon, kept up this evening, a quiet, gentle falling of white stuff, now over two inches thick. I never thought I'd be so happy to see the stuff, but I am. Squeeked under my feet as I walked home today, which means it's fairly dry snow.
(Streaks in picture are close-ups of snowflakes bungee-jumping. No, really. OK, fine, they're parachuting. Details, details.)

Love the first snow!
Earlier they were predicting that we'd have ice again :P but now that has disappeared from the forecast. We've been socked in for days, though... Sunday was a gorgeous sunny day with not a cloud in the sky, but Monday (BLUE Monday!) we were socked in again, and today, likely the rest of the week.
But snow would make being socked in worth while!
(I notice that it's snowing in Rochester...)
Mark, I love the muting, too. And I've noticed, more so right now, because storms and rain are noisy.
Alice, doesn't Chattanooga sometimes get some?
Sravana, your last couple of days sounds like ours.
Jeff, I thought that's what we just did. ;-)
Tim, 1994 is so last century. ;-)
Pookie, that's the way of our western winter: Snow, melt, freeze, snow or melt or freeze after that, rain like hell after that, then start all over. Keep going till April. But we may get a repeat of last year: 6 continuous weeks of sunshine and -2C (at least here in Bergen).
