I woke up this morning, looked out my window, and I saw about half an inch of snow!:) It's still coming down at a steady rate, so we might actually get something worthwhile at the end of the day.

Waiting for the second snow here, the first one came and gone 2 weeks ago.
That's the last month of weather: http://orbides.1gb.ru/orbf/2000000x_s.avi (2Mb)

The kind of midnight illumination a snow, cloud cover and urban lightwaste gives when put together is unforgettable:

We had our first snow of the year about a week before Thanksgiving...it was rather pleasant being out jogging in it.

We, here in England, had an unusually early snow-fall on the 28th/29th October; the first October snow-fall in the UK since 1934.

And, in some parts, there was a lot of snow this week just gone. But not here, sadly. :(

A couple of years ago, we got a light snow one day. :p It was probably the first time in like 20 years. :lol:
We can only hope for some snow this year. We've had a few cold fronts bring the temperature around freezing at night and 50-70 degress F during day, :)P) but without those the temperature is even higher. ;)

First snow reminds me of a young woman from Georgia (USA) who started working at our office in the mountains of western North Carolina some years ago. We got a wet, sticky November snow and she was so excited we went out in the parking lot to build snowmen. She strated pulling snow together into little 6 inch balls and stacking them up. I packed a little snowball and began rolling it. The ball was up to about 12 inches and growing when she looked over and said, "What the hell are you doing!?"

"Um..." I said, "Making a snowman. This is how it's done."

With an incredulous expression she said, "That really works? I thought that was just in cartoons!"

I pity people who grow up in warm climates.

We got a decent flurry at my college on December 1, but just cold rain where I live so go figure! Still, I think it's really really early for the Atlanta area!
