Is it snowing where you live?

It is here - it's really coming down heavily. Thankfully it's not windy, though - would not want a blizzard. Several inches have accumulated. It looks pretty but is wreaking havoc on the roads. And I didn't get all the leaves raked yet!!

Good grief no. It's nice and sunny here on the west coast. Last evening there was a huge full moon sitting low over the poplar trees and pumpkin fields in a beautiful pastel pink & blue sky. Someone said there was frost this morning, but I missed it.

I am in Northern Alberta. It was hard going clearing the driveway - so wet and sticky and heavy but I got that sucker done! My husband usually does the snowblower thing but I can't start it and he is at work...

Our poor dog is disgusted and I don't blame her! Her toys and such are all buried.

I am in South Alberta and it is absolutely beautiful here, I went for a two hour walk yesterday, early, with a light sweater for warmth, today, not even a sweater.

No snow in Edmonton. Beautiful huge full moon tonight, and it's chilly, but still autumn.
Apparently there was a sprinkle of snow in the countryside around the city last night - but none of it here where I live.
Hope there is snow for Halloween though

No, there's no snow in Victoria but here in Sooke we have certainly had frost. I've had to scrape it off my windshield for the past couple of days. I leave for work around 6AM; probably if I waited a couple of hours the sun would melt the frost, but unfortunately I don't have that luxury these days! It's been a beautiful week, though - nice and sunny for the most part. Any of you fellow Victorians see that gorgeous sunrise this morning?

We have hope - it is sunny today but only 0 degrees. It got down to -10 last night so did not melt. However, I believe we are to get up to 5 tomorrow. It is probably about one or two inches above the lawn deep. Blech!

We had a snow last Wednesday night that accumulated enough to coat the grass but the streets and sidewalks were bare. It's all gone now except for small patches in the shade on the north side of buildings/bushes.

I can't believe it. I was just about to go out and run errands, but ice pellets are now falling from the sky.

And for an update, after the ice pellets, it turned out to be a lovely, warm sunny afternoon. Go figure.
