Backyard
I realize the saying is usually attributed to the month of March but I am hoping that by using it for the first snow of winter it will apply to the whole season. Listening to the weather forecast for Sunday and Monday as I walked around on Saturday in 66 degree weather made me wonder what the heck is going on. Surely someone was trying to pull a HUGE practical joke. I guess Mother Nature managed a doozy…
As much as I was enjoying being snuggled under the blanket reading a good book I didn’t want to let the first snow go un-photographed. As soon as the wind died down and the light managed to find its way through the clouds I grabbed the camera and headed out into the backyard. The temperatures were warm enough for the snow to be the heavy, clingy snow that manages to hang on every surface. I wanted to capture that look. This series of images are from around the yard (I wanted some pics but was not brave enough to venture farther).
WOW!
Yep! We got hit with some snow. Thanks Dawn!
Beautiful, but. . . As far as I’m concerned, it should go away after we do our beauty appreciation dance.
Thanks Carol. I agree, I have a picture it can melt now.
UGH! Way too early for all that! Has is melted now?
I know! Nope. Maybe by Friday depending on how much rain. Some areas around Syracuse have 24+ inches of snow.
I had no idea! Damn! We had flurries blowing through the air and cold temps but that’s it.
The was an area north of Syracuse that had over 55 inches of snow!
