emerging winter
The weather wizard didn't wait for the winter solstice before decorating the landscape with snow and ice.
I headed a short way up the coast of Maine yesterday for a visit with a friend. Swirling snow squalls were with me for most of the drive followed by a quieter afternoon made for December-cold air walking. Ice started to form.
The snow returned in the evening, continuing through this morning. I woke to a few inches of white.
