I woke up Friday morning to snow on the roof. There were patches of snow on the ground. The wind was roaring around the house and through the old windows. This is a very old house and there never has been heat in my bedroom so it was brutally cold — about 44°F. The fiercer the wind blows the more you feel the cold.
Buddy the Cat had slept under the covers with me all night and needed to be persuaded to leave his warm nest. We dragged ourselves out of bed and went downstairs where it was warm. I turned on the computer to see what the National Weather Service (NWS) predicted for the day. It said there was a 20% chance of flurries. Well, already it had flurried until it had accumulated. But at least there was no storm coming. Because I usually blog about the first snow every autumn, I grabbed the 20% snowy icon from the NWS for this post.
And guess what the URL for this icon is?

Yes, they keep the snowy icons in their WTF folder. I think it’s an appropriate place for them.

No snow here but people been talking about it. Rain most of the day here.

Brrr! And I have been griping about the rain making things cool off here. We will probably get snow pretty soon and I am not looking forward to it.
