This is what we have received as of 10 AM today. It is still steadily coming down. Well, it was expected. Usually we have had our first skiff (yes Ontarians, skiff) of snow on October 11, so we are well overdue. Have to have snow for Hallowe'en! Need to put those costumes over snowsuits!
Hard to see how deep it is unless someone walks in the snow, so I did.
Snow: means Winter is coming (or is here) with all the connotations that involves.
Snow: means the nights are brighter with the light (artificial - lamp posts or natural - full moon) reflecting off the snow, the ground is cleaner looking, garbage disappears, no one can sneak around as you always leave a distinct trail and on occasion up north, the snow is wet enough to create a snowman (see Caleb's Friend, February 15, 2013) and always good to create snow angels. And my snow tires are already on my car, so I am ready to go!
