Well, as I type this, it's snowing. We got only a dusting for now, and we're in an eye of a storm, but looks to be another wave coming through. We're not going to get any real accumulation from this, and I'm not complaining as it's free moisture, but I had a lot of beautiful buds ready to open and they're now all toast. I took pictures last night of my unfulfilled promises.
