We are way overdue for a snow. It’s been three or four years since we’ve had enough snow to make a snowman. In the past, we’ve always been able to count on at least one good snow per winter. Not lately.
Anyway, the weatherman is now calling for the chance of rain changing to snow tomorrow afternoon, with the possibility of four or more inches accumulating. Now, it has been my experience that when the weather forecasts call for snow, they always miss it. The more certain they are about snow accumulating, the less likely it is to happen. The best snows always seem to catch everyone by surprise.
We have had dustings a couple of times this season, and even these caught the weather experts by surprise. But now I’m ready for a snow. I’m ready to have a big bonfire and a snowball fight. I want to build a snowman. I want to take pictures in the snow. It just doesn’t feel like we’ve had a winter until we’ve had a good snow.
I get all excited when I hear snow in the forecast. Then I get disappointed when it never happens. But even if no one predicted it, we are still due for a good snow.
Now, I hope I haven’t jinxed it by talking about it.
