I think that this year we’re going to be hit with a lot more snow sooner than we did last year. I remember that last year we didn’t have much snow at all until the new year, and I even remember writing about how odd it was, that it was almost disturbing even though I personally dislike Winter a great deal.

However, it’s not even the end of November yet and we’ve already had some light snowfall. It didn’t dump a whole lot on us but it did stick somewhat. It’s supposed to start snowing at some point overnight; right now it’s just foggy. Overnight we’re slated to get anywhere from 5-10 cm of snow, and the overall accumulation by tomorrow night could be between 20-25 cm. (That’s almost 8-10 inches for you Americans, and by the way, I thumb my nose at all of you people South of the border gearing up to celebrate Thanksgiving with delicious turkeys and stuffing and potatoes, and I know we already had our Thanksgiving, but this turkey envy that I have, it is not rational.)

I’m totally thrilled about having to get Hayley to school and back in the snow. Especially since snow tends to make me just want to curl up in bed with a book, a laptop, and a television remote. Perhaps a cup of coffee. Then again, rain does the same thing. So does cold, windy weather. I’m thinking I’m just not a fan of weather in general.

Let’s put it this way, as far as our weather has been going lately with all the rain, snow, freezing ice pellets, and whatnot. One of our local weather guys, Frank Cavallaro, had this to say on the weather forecast this morning: “We call it precipitation because we just don’t know whats going to fall from the sky, but something will!” Yeah. Great!

What are the odds of humans deciding to hibernate like bears?
