Big, heavy, wet flakes of snow are falling. It’s so damp that it looks more like rain coming down rather than the lazy, gentle descent of light snow.
We had almost a foot of snow yesterday morning. It came down quickly, starting around 7:30am and then tapering off around noon. I rode my bike to the gym before work, and had trouble seeing through the thick flakes flying into my eyes. When I headed to work, legions of people were out shoveling snow. Little old ladies hardly taller than the shovels they wielded were clearing snow from in front of their houses.
It’s just after midnight now and the snow started to come down again about 45 minutes ago, covering once again the recently-cleared streets and paths.
