When I checked the forecast midday on Thursday, it said that we should expect a 20% chance of showers during the day and a 10% chance of showers overnight. I didn't think much about it.
I got up Friday morning and looked out the kitchen window. At first, it looked normal. For no particular reason, a few minutes later, I looked out the window again. Flipped the curtain back into place. Then stopped and looked again. I thought, the bushes don't look normal, so I took a closer look and discovered they didn't look normal because they were covered in snow.
I looked out the front door and sure enough, we'd gotten about half an inch of snow overnight.
Fortunately, although it wasn't a light, dry snow, it wasn't wet and heavy either. Fairly easy to clear off my sidewalk, car and driveway. The roads out of the subdivision were slushy but not icy. Hooray!
It was actually rather picturesque. I do like picturesque, especially when it doesn't interfere with my getting to work in a timely fashion.
It was warm enough that the snow was 99.9% melted when I got home. So, other than the brief cleanup in the morning, I didn't have to do any really hard work to get rid of it. I love when a plan comes together.
