Snowing Again!

It has been snowing for 3 days and nights here. It is the dandruff snow so it has only accumulated about 4 or 5 inches. We are getting up to an average of 30 degrees above each day but, COME ON ALREADY,. I should have known it was coming because they plowed the driveway to the gravel pit near my house. Murphys law strikes again.

We did have over 3ft on the ground but the last 2 weeks it has been in the 50s or higher and all the snow is gone.

We can have snow any month of the year.

In Southern Alberta the adage it.

Summer comes a different week every year......but winter can be enjoyed anytime of the year.

Here too it can snow anytime. On a 5 mile stretch of road between here and town I have started out with sunshine, turned to rain, then sleet, then snow, then hail, back to snow, back to sleet, rain and finally back to sun by the end of the road. Strange and cool at the same time...

Wow that is really weird in a 5 mile stretch for the weather to do that.

A similar thing happended here a few years ago. I had to give a freind a ride home. It was raining at the highschool, but at his house only 1 mile away the roads were dry and it never rained. Like you said strange and weird at the same time.

I wish we had snow like that here. My snowmobile currently sits in the garage collecting dust.
It was 60 degrees today, perfect weather for tuning and modding the sled.

No sign of snow, yet. Doubt it will come anytime soon.
It is a sub-tropical 62º right now.
Good tennis and beer weather; and at the same time.
