The weather is changing this early afternoon; the morning saw sun and shining white snow—always pleasant, I guess, but we're looking forward more to some snow in the days ahead. There's a chance from tonight, iy seems, although maybe not as heavy as early forecasts on the news programs predicted. The wind is picking up on the coast, while the barometer is starting to turn down. Maybe a little fresh white stuff in time for Christmas?
