Ho hum...a little bit of snow but the ground is wet...too wet for anything to stick.  It keeps fading away, then coming back.  It's not fair!!  On Tuesday night we had 2 heavy showers of soft hail and they covered everything, causing chaos on the roads!!  I would love to see soft, fluffy flakes, the size of saucers from a doll's tea set!  Oh well, there's always February!  And it would be lovely to see snow in February as my cousin is visiting from Australia!  I'd love to take him sledging!

[Deep Snow please]

Getting a bit heavier now, need to hope it keeps turning to snow as it comes inland and that warm air delays itself.
