Today marked the first day I woke up to snow on the ground. It was only a dusting in some places and it drifted in others with the winds.
I had not checked yet, but the actual temperatures were closer to freezing but the wind chill had the real feel at -12 degrees.. I stepped out in blue jeans and a long sleeve t-shirt just for a moment to take a few pictures and intended to hop back inside. It only took around fifteen to twenty seconds before the familiar sting of negative temperatures registered.
Still, it was pleasant to wake up to the beautiful scene now around the house as a confirmed change of season.
Welcome back, winter.
