It took me by surprise. I must admit, I did not expect to see snow on October 22nd. Yet there it was!! For about 3 to 4 hours, it was falling nicely, heavily enough to start accumulating on the dryer parts of the deck.
Of course it didn't stick, and by the time I went to bed a fine rain was coming down. But still it got me really excited.
If you think it's early to get snow, picture this: the first time I was aware of a snowfall this year was on September 9th. We went to the local bar to get a bite to eat and they were showing a Canadian football game in Calgary, and it was snowing over there!!! Now Calgary is about 1 1/2 hours driving frpom the rockies, but it's not high up in altitude or anything, it's actually in the middle of the immense flat plains of Alberta.
Anyway, if the weather 'holds', it will keep snowing sporadically for the next few weeks, and we could have the first lasting snows by mid-November. Oooooh the excitement!
