Winter is Finally Here! First Snow….

The long awaited snow is finally here! This morning it started snowing and it has been snowing and and off all day today. This evening it started to really pick up. There must be at least 8 inches of snow on the ground. Yippee! We went out after dinner to romp around in the snow for a bit of fun. It’s still snowing now (9PM) so I’m looking forward to a big pile of snow in the morning. There nothing like waking up to snow all over. We’ll probably get our snow gear on and roll around and have fun! I’ll have to get out the sleds. Maybe this weekend we’ll drive up to the mountains and go for some good sledding. Fun fun!

Any other snow lovers out there? I feel ripped off if we get a winter without much snow. Without the snow winter is just cold and boring. Snow brings everyone out to play and makes everything bright and beautiful!

Earlier this afternoon Charanjeet in her bear clothes. It’s so cute with the litte bear ears. She is just playing with her toys as we eat lunch.

    It is not fair! You have snow in Espanola, but we near Phildelphia have not had a good snow fall for several years!

    It is not winter without lots of snow. But at least I can look at your pictures as much as I want, and pretend that I am there and not here!

    Pass the hot, spicy tea!

    Heh. Do you get fall at all out there? Is it only summer and winter?

    I guess I thought it didn’t get that cold there, since my students from Mexico said it never does there, and you are close to Mexico, and as far as I know N.M. doesn’t have any mountains.

    How do the seasons go weather-wise there?

    Here (Maryland) it’s been rather uncharacteristically balmy the past 2 weeks.

    You are so right.
    Winter without snow is sooo boring.

    Hmmmm… I guess the snow was waiting for my departure. It has been warm here (50’s) in Wisconsin till last night when it dropped to 20’s. It is amazing how the snow makes everything look black and white. Like nature painting the canvas of earth in white to color it again in spring.

    Leah, New Mexico is full of mountains!
    Check my blog (archives) if you want to see the huge diversity of foliage and fall, winter, summer, and spring weather in New Mexico. Where we live is at least an 8 hour drive to Mexico. New Mexico is the 5th largest state in the United States and bigger than many European countries.

    The snow looks gorgous i wish i was there. I wanted ask, what do u guys mean when you say “fall” in the weather context?

    Lots of pyar

    Kiran

    p.s its cold in London tonight and dark too at the moment, its currently 8* outside.

  9. Kiran…. Fall is one of the seasons….(when the leaves fall). Spring, Summer, Winter, Fall

    Hi Kiran

    Fall is American for Autumn!

  11. Kiran says:

    Morning people,

    Thanks for the clarification…makes sense. We have already had fall in London then, Winter’s began already…lots of rain and just plain cold this morning.

    Take Care

    Lots of pyar

    Kiran

    P.s its 10* this morning.

    It’s a white out here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin today. It started snowing sometime midnight last night. And yes it was all white; I could not see anything when I peaked outside my window this morning. The winds is attributing to this blizzard condition. We have already had 8 inches of show and it is still going. All schools have been cancelled and most of the people are home since the road conditions are so bad. I just finished drinking my hot chocolate, hope every one, affected by the snow storms, and are keeping warm and safe.

    Satnam.
