Pre-Hallowe'en Snowfall Warning


It has been snowing for several hours today and at noon the temperature is hovering at zero degrees.  Big, wet, sticky flakes, perfect for making snowballs.  I just checked the weather forecast and was surprised to see there is a snowfall warning in effect for this area today.  Here, a snowfall warning typically means 10-15cm are forecast.  Nothing like the 30cm+ dumps of snow (usually followed by freezing rain) we got in Nova Scotia when I was growing up.



The leeks are still doing well!
