Snow Birds




After writing that the English school was closed two days for snow that never showed up, I went outside Sunday morning at 2 AM and discovered the street was wet, but the sky was absolutely clear. A few feet away, the cars were covered in about half an inch of snow. I walked around the neighborhood, and it was the same thing - the streets were wet, but any vehicles parked outside were covered in snow. Then, I got to this one stretch of road in front of a nearby coin laundry, and almost slipped and fell on my back. About 20 feet of the street had glazed ice. That was a surprise.

By 11 AM, all of it was gone, except for a small handful of snow in some grass lining a parking lot across the street from the coin laundry.

It was fun while it lasted.
