The Many Moods Of Snow

Y'know, that old adage about how The Eskimoes Have Like TEN THOUSAND Words For Snow, Man, is as distorted as most of those old adages, but it is true that there are different kinds of snow.

Today we got the rare fuzzy snow.

I mean it. It actually looks like goose down coming out of the sky. My car looked like a tribble with tires till I brushed it off.

I just don't get how people can live in places without four seasons. The seasons are just so INTERESTING!

I wouldn't say no to some fuzzy snow, especially as it would require warming up a bit.

I miss the seasons sometimes.

And then I go to Malibu in the winter and enjoy the weather.

Sweden is experiencing its snowiest, coldest, and therefore prettiest winter in over than a century. And it stays pretty, 'cos no one can be arsed to go outside and mess up the pure, perfect blanket of snow that covers pretty much everything except roads and sidewalks. It's too cold, and/or people are used to only be able to spend a few days playing in the snow, and have run out of ideas now that it's been here for weeks.

Hmmm? Is there non-fuzzy snow? Like, clunky square snow or something?

I love fluffy snow! I once dismissed class early with the requirement students go skip around in the light little feathers scattering the sidewalk.

Tribble snow means good skiing, I think.

I love it when everything gets fuzzy. That is, I love it until I end up getting blinded by how white everything is.
