The Snow is Softly Falling

The snow is really coming down now.  I thought it would never start.  I put a video up on the weather blog of it.  Most people don't realize how exceedingly rare this is for us.  It may not snow again for another five years.  

I am worried about Ferret.  He is sitting down in that tent by the river most likely getting drunk and oblivious to the weather.  It is supposed to get down to 17 degrees tonight.  His sleeping bag is rated at 20 degrees.  He was mumbling something about staying with his mother if the weather got bad.  I hope he does.

THANK GOD! I was so hoping for snow for you and Rosa! Enjoy it! What does Maggie think of the white stuff?

:) You need to go out and make a snow angel to celebrate your 60 days!

Oh cool! You guys are having snow at last, wonder how much will fall? It feels too warm here in NJ to do anything but rain, what weird weather we've been having.

Wander said...

Yeah I'm so happy for you. I could feel your disappointment from your earlier post about not getting any snow. Enjoy it while it lasts!

YEAH! It's been snowing since about 11:00 a.m. this morning over here in GA. Everything is white. The temperature is right at 32 degrees, but tonight the weather people are talking about bitter cold temps for us, so we will have ice on the road. :-(

Congratulations on getting snow! (Is congratulations the correct word here?!?)
Anyway, I am worried about the homeless in this area as well. The wind chill will be 10 to 20 below zero tonight.

Yeah!! I am so excited for you! We had some snow mixed with rain for about 10 minutes, but nothing to get excited about.

By the way...

Annabel said...

Woo hoo! I'm so excited for you. Have you gone out and made snow angels yet? I'm proud of you for your 60 days as well. Keep up the good work!!

Barb said...

Awesome! I wish I could be as excited about snow when it falls but we get it so frequently, I hardly care much about it! That is a refreshing perspective!

Thanks for sharing yours...

I found your blog by clicking next blog and I have been reading you for a while.
Then I noticed that you were on Annonymous Boxer's Sidebar!

Anyhow, I really like your blog!
