Well, it's here.

First snow that I've noticed.
Went to the shed this a.m. to get a few pieces of Pine for the morning fire at about 8:45, came in to start the fire and when I looked out the window......the snow was falling.
Only lasted 10 minutes.
It won't stick.........yet.

 

We just got our first snow this morning too. Tapering off now, but it was there!

 

Sure, no prob.
Saves me the trouble of plowing.
I'll bring some down in the Jeep.

 

I'll take some pleeeeze!!

 

I'm in the mood for it...

then I will gripe and complain when it lasts 6 months.

 

6 Months?
Try 7-8.

 

A long way to go here, our 10 day forecast still has daytime highs in the 50s though Nov-1.

 

I saw some snowflakes and sleet pellets after lunch. It lasted for maybe 5 minutes. Just enough to let you know that winter is just around the corner.

 

Took Casper for a walk in the woods a little while ago, and it snowed the whole time.
Some of it stuck....for a few minutes.
Mid-October isn't really extremely early for us, eh?

 

What fell here looked and felt more like snow-drops. Kinda halfway between rain and true snowflakes. Sure hope to get at least two days without precipitation soon. It has rained everyday for a week and a half. Still need to bring in at least 3 pickup truck loads of dry splits for winter.
