    It seems the Kangaroo State is going to get its first real snow. We may see 5 cm of the white stuff; or maybe more, I remember one year they said 5 cm and we got 46 cm. However, I don't think it will be much. It is going to start as rain and then turn to snow in the afternoon. I will post photos if we get anything. I am leaving the canopy up and will go out and knock snow off at regular intervals.

    It is actually snowing a lot but melting on the ground. Depends on how the temps go as to how much snow will accumulate.

    Bushes are getting white, porch is getting white, ground is getting white; we might be back at the 5 cm+ again.

    When you get so little snow, cm's sounds more impressive

    Hahaha...you both have a good point! However, I'd rather be able to measure like that than feet or yardsticks worth! And for the record, it's started sticking and we've got a strong dusting now

    I sure hope ya'll down south don't get hammered with the snow fall. But it will be funny on the news for us that are used to it.
