More Snow

We didn’t expect more snow. We were supposed to get rain mixed with snow. But yesterday afternoon Kathy looked out on the deck and there was a light dusting of snow. Not rain. Not rain mixed with snow. But snow.
That dusting turned into about six inches by the time Kathy went to bed and it was still snowing. I couldn’t see how much there was when I was forced to go to bed by absolute darkness. The power had gone out. (Yes, our trees shed more limbs.)
This morning when it was still there instead of having been washed away by the rain as “KING TV’s resident meteorologist” had promised, Kathy announced that we were on a two hour delay.
“That’s fine,” I muttered. “We’ll just work until 6:00.”
To which Kathy replied, “I’m getting in the shower now.”
The roads were wet with very little slush. We were at work by just before 7:00 to start a hyper-typical Monday.
We are so lucky to have global warming. Can you imagine what the past two and half weeks would have been without it?
