| Snow outside of my house. |
Yesterday was certainly interesting. I was clearing some brush and leaves when it started
to snow-SNOW! Keep in mind that it rarely
snows in southwest Virginia in April. Even
more surprising, as I was raking leaves, I came upon a small garter snake. I was amazed to see a snake slithering around
in near freezing temperatures; they usually stay in their burrows in this type
of weather (heck, most of the snakes are probably still hibernating). So, imagine me (or anyone really) raking
leaves and moving brush during a snowstorm (in a month that does not usually
see any snowstorms) and finding a snake.
Truly ironic!
Another one of my fellow bloggers is a Virginian and she said that she got snow yesterday as well. Must have hit the whole state!
ReplyDeleteI wish they had called it "global weather change" rather than "global warming" then we would understand it better and be more willing to accept the fact: Yes, for sure, the weather is changing! We are 8" short of our "normal" rainfall here in Oregon, and that is a lot.
