Four inches of snow!

So I head out this morning to get the paper and what do I find? Four inches of snow!

Sure, I know this is Canada, and I also know that snow can happen this time of year, especially in Edmonton (where I am today). But it’s also April, when the massive snow dumps typical of January and February should be finished. Any snowfalls now should consist of wimpy little flakes that melt when they hit the ground, not cover it to such a depth!

It’s already warming up a bit outside, and the forecast calls for above-freezing temps in the next while, but still. Not a pleasant thing to find this morning.

This is the hardest time of year for this kind of crappy weather - we’re just dying for spring, and instead of lovely weather, we get cold and snowy. Bleah. At least the snow doesn’t stay this time of year (I keep telling myself, as I brush and scrape my car every morning).

I went out in it early too (7:30ish) so I could get in line for the clothing sale, was driving a bit in it last night too.

I just want spring to be here… can we get a little green? Please?
