First Snow

[minxybaby]

We had snow last week, but it was so light and the weather was too warm that it melted as soon as it hit the ground. Today we got our first *real* snow fall. The weather is calling for freezing rain and more snow.









My husband is out in that shit right now getting gas for me and picking up my lunch for tonight. I'm leaving for work real soon, and I'll be taking the long way, avoiding all highways. I can't wait until Ottawa cools down to a normal winter temperature and only snow falls from the sky. I broke my pelvis in a car accident 2 years ago because we got caught in freezing rain. Ugh I hate this weather.

I can't believe I'm going from 35 degree weather to a Canadian winter! My body won't know what the hell is going on! Hee ;)

Snow!!!!!! I would LOVE a white Christmas. Here it snows maybe about 100 flakes every 5 years or so, and it never sticks, it just melts when it hits the ground :(

Freezing rain is the worst. I'd much rather have mounds of snow than freezing rain. Thankfully though, I have not had any of either so far this year. Only a matter of time though.

I hate winter.

We've had plenty of snow here today too, Robin, (but then, you and I are pretty close). ;)

And now that it is dark outside, it's so beautiful to look at!

And yes, tomorrow will be much warmer, (they broadcast 17 degrees at Joliette).

So the snow will melt! (but soon, Robin, very soon, it will stay! :D )

I agree with you on the freezing rain. I went to the convenient store,(which is very close to my house), and I could feel the harsh little blows on my face).

I wish the weather was better for you. Although I can't say I share your dislike of snow. I love snow, when I don't have to travel in it. But here in South Carolina we don't get a lot of it. Our winter tends to consist of a lot of rain and ice. I'm sure that if I lived somewhere that it snowed a lot I would have a dislike for it too, well that and I have never been in an accident with the injuries you sustained. Drive safe sweetie.

Freezing rain is horrible. I once had to drive in it for 4 hours (a drive that was normally 30 minutes). I was so scared!

That's the best kind of snow - the kind that melts before it hits the ground! Let me tell you, the dusting you got on the ground in the pics is about as much as I want to get at all this winter after last year, lol.
