Sure, I’ve had a few Christmases with snow around her, although they are rare. But, this year, the first snow is a Christmas Snow. I feel like Abed on Community: there must be something special about this Christmas.
Yeah, it’s pointless, but I had to share. I’m sure there’s a discussion topic in there somewhere.

I’m tickled to death to see snow, especially for Christmas! As a transplanted Yankee, that’s one of the things I like least about living here (S.E. TN) - we never get much snow, if any. It’s now warming up and will probably tun to goo soon, but we’ve gotten a good 3 inches or so.
Yay for snow!! 😃

We might (MIGHT) see a few flakes tonight. If we do, it will be the first time in my life it has snowed on Christmas.

Evidently, if it does snow it will be the first time since they’ve been keeping records (which is evidently 1877, which is… odd. This is one of the original 13 colonies, y’all. I suspect we’ve got a few more records than that. Maybe Sherman burned them.)

Of course, it is snowing when I have to be at work early in the morning. It is not the first snow this season, but it is the first one that has stuck. And it keeps snowing.
Snow is overrated…
