For our town.

Quote:SNOW - by C.K. Williams

All night, snow, then, near dawn, freezing rain, so that by morn-
ing the whole city glistens

in a glaze of high-pitched, meticulously polished brilliance, every-
thing rounded off,

the cars submerged nearly to their windows in the unbroken drifts
lining the narrow alleys,

the buildings rising from the trunklike integuments the wind has
molded against them.

Underlit clouds, blurred, violet bars, the rearguard of the storm,
still hang in the east,

immobile over the flat river basin of the Delaware; beyond them,
nothing, the washed sky,

one vivid wisp of pale smoke rising waveringly but emphatically
into the brilliant ether.

No one is out yet but Catherine, who closes the door behind her
and starts up the street.
It's a comin.....
Night snow. Quiet and beautiful. :)
still waiting for it.
the anticipation.....
On one hand, i want it to snow. On the other hand, i'm gonna have to work anyway and getting there will be a complete pain. Hmm...

GARRISON KEILLOR. He wrote about this today in his Daily Almanac and this was the daily poem.
In honor of our lovely city's wonderful driving habits in winter weather...

Ok, it's 1 in the morning. According to radar it looks like it's in the city. I live just north of the UofM campus. I'm getting very light mix of ice pellet/flurries.

We have snow here in Cordova!!!! It's not a White Christmas, but this will do.
Snowing in Collierville now. Not hard, not sticking, but it's a start.
It's still nothing here in the middle of memphis but barely some flurries/ice pellets.
