This takes the shine off my garden |
Big slushy snowflakes |
It rained off and on in the night. when I looked out this morning it was snowing. It snowed until about 3:00 PM. The snow melted on the ground but did accumulate on the house roofs.
Now Far Side has her snow stick. Far Side also has a contest as to when the snow is gone. But I'm sure I beat her this year for the first snow.
Our weather man says we get one or two early September snows every ten years.
That is a contest we will all be happy to let you win!
ReplyDeleteYes you win for earliest snow! Yucky looking stuff:( You should have a snow stick this year too! :)
ReplyDeleteI will think about the snow stick. It's fun to watch yours. We get chinooks and so sometimes much of the snow melts.
DeleteWell that's just WRONG! I was sure you were going to say that it was some sort of tree fluff.. sheesh! We're only a few days out of August. It's still officially summer. I'd lodge a complaint. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm and optimist so I know we will get all kinds of nice fall weather.
DeleteIt is too early. I hope we have a good winter here.
ReplyDeleteI can handle the early as long as it doesn't stay.
DeleteHave fun !!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank God for Brisbane in December/January - hot, yep!
Humid - come February - Yep!
But no freezing - I'll take the sub-tropics any day.
Just sit back and enjoy that "white stuff" !!!
Cheers
Colin
Hmmm! Maybe that snowfall got in the way.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your white stuff.
I'll enjoy until February the heat of our summer - Dec. and
Jan. hot.
February - humidity and sauna. But as we had NO winter this year - who knows??
Cheers
Colin
It won't last long and we will get much more nice fall weather.
DeleteThat is very early! Does your weatherman also predicts a cold winter now.
ReplyDeleteWe get early snow a couple of times every ten years. It won't stay. the weatherman will not predict a harsh winter.
DeleteI LOVE SNOW!! Send some of that here!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'll do my snow dance!
DeleteKeep it your direction, I am going paddle boarding today
ReplyDeleteWell, I can keep it away from you for a while, but after that all bets are off.
DeleteI am just watching the weather report on my TV and it is covering both your snow and the floods in Pheonix. Weather here is finally just perfect...wonder how long that will last.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't noticed Phoenix floods. we'll get lots more nice weather.
DeleteNow that sure does seem early to me, but then again, you're even farther north than me! :-)
ReplyDeleteWe are at a higher elevation so that brings some cold and with moisture we get snow.
Deleteseriously! wow, i really thought you were pulling our leg!
ReplyDeleteWe get this a couple of times every ten years.
DeleteOh heck no! Sheesh! You all just got rid of that stuff!
ReplyDeleteCheri
Yes, it seems that way. this won't stay so don't worry. We will get lots more nice weather.
DeleteNoooooooo! Not ready for snow quite yet.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your sentiments are shared by many.
DeleteThat wasn't much of a summer for you.
ReplyDeletethat comes with the territory. We do have much longer summer days than at your latitude.
DeleteNot what I really wanted to think about but it reality. Some snow predicted tonight for the Minnesota/Manitoba border....:(
ReplyDeleteIt will be spreading east from us.
DeleteGood luck! Perhaps the next snow will only be in December!
ReplyDeleteI like your kind of optimism.
DeleteOh noooooo! Not yet. I hope we don't get snow until December!
ReplyDeleteDecember would be about right!
DeleteSnowing already.Its sounds like a long winter for you.
ReplyDeleteThis will melt and we will have nice fall weather again. don't worry
DeleteThat is so unbelievable!! Snow on your corn, and the flowers in bloom!
ReplyDeleteIt happens here! The snow isn't the problem. It's the frost.
DeleteI was wondering about you over there!
ReplyDeleteI usually work out watching CBCNN and they were showing your temps from the past while. And the snow... such is Mother Nature!
Calgary got the worst of it.
DeleteMy hubby is just reading the news for us. We are in for stormy night, basements flooded.
ReplyDeleteYou have snow already.
Red how bad is this.
Where has our weeks gone with summer.
Looks bad for Fall again. The leaves will fall off from rain.
They are just peeking a branch or so.
You poor man.
Summer passes quickly but there will be another summer. At least we don't have flooded basements. That's awful.
DeleteEarly snowfall.
ReplyDeleteAUGH! Not ready for that!! They sure got a lot of snow in Calgary the other day.
ReplyDeleteI can hardly believe that.
ReplyDeleteWhat? You get snow in September? Good gosh! Then again, I could use some snow right now. Hawaii is sweltering.
