October 23... and we had a winter storm last night that dumped a bunch of snow on us. Enough snow that it couldn't all be melted today. Not even half of it. And we have more snow in the forecast for the rest of the week. Our normal high is in the low 50s F. Today we made it to the mid 30s F. Lately the first real snowfall has been later in November and some years not till December. People haven't even mounted snowplows on their pickups yet. This year the Sun Road wasn't opened until mid June, not all the mountain snow melted this year, and now we are already adding to the snow pack again.
This is annoying. I have plenty of "must-do" things left to do outside before Winter should really start.
Global
warming? I don't get the 'warming' part. Or the 'global' part. I'm clinging to the long term weather forecast of a "La Nina" Winter with warmer and drier conditions. One can only hope.
