Snow!


Real Myoko-style snowfall.


It's getting a bit brighter about now, but the snow is still coming down at a pretty good rate. The wind is kind of coming from all directions, making me think we might be coming to the end of this cycle. But a good snow depth, and just at the right time.


Nice and cold, too, and much lighter snow today than yesterday.
