First Snow

This afternoon as I dashed out to run a few errands, I happened to grab my coat at the last minute thinking it might be good in case the grey skies outside meant rain.

Little did I know those clouds meant more than that.

See those grasses bent over? That was because of an incredibly strong wind that suddenly blew in a storm...that turned out to be snow!

I sat inside a Starbucks literally watching a blizzard for twenty minutes! First it rained, then hailed, and then turned to snow...all the while with unbelievable gusts of wind.

They don't call this the Windy City for nothing!

Now I can say I've seen my first snow of the season. Wonder how much more I'll see this year??!!
