Is it a super heavy frost? A light snow? All I know is that we woke up to a thin white powdery layer on everything this morning. The weather station we have installed DID record a few hundredths of precipitation between midnight last night and this morning, so it either fell as rain and froze or fell as light snow and stuck.
Either way, it was a lovely Christmas surprise to peek out the windows and find. Last year we were all in shorts, but this year....it feels quite seasonal.
Happy Christmas, everyone!
Unbelievable! So beautiful! Merry Christmas! We wee out on my patio in shorts until early this morning! I ended up making peace with the weather and having a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you had a great day. We were the ones in shorts last year, so you got all the warmth this time around. Not complaining though!
DeleteWhat a lovely snowy/frosty scene! We woke up to a temperature of 67 degrees, with light rain. It rained on and off all day, as it had done for the past three days at least. Shirt sleeves for Christmas is unheard of here in VA. El Nino is certainly stirring things up around the country.
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's fascinating to see how it plays out around the country. I am loving the chilly temps, but realize they are probably stolen from you all on the east coast. You've had it much warmer than we have -- unusual, for sure.
DeleteOh it's been so cold. I know I'm over feeding the donkeys, but I can't help but feel they need their hay burning bellies to keep them warm through the nights. I'm hoping the days get a little warmer soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope so too, we are supposed to do the Polar Bear Plunge later this week! At this rate the ocean will be warmer than the air!
