Yesterday the thermometer read 24ºC at about 4:30 p.m. Soon after that a cold front arrived and the temperature fell rapidly. During the night it rained. It was raining this morning when I got up. Some time this morning rain turned to snow. At times today it snowed heavily. When our friend Jan came for dinner at 2 p.m. she said there were white-out conditions on her drive from town (just a mile and quarter, fortunately). Now the snow is falling lightly but steadily. The greenhouses, sales building, shrubs and trees are all snow covered.
There will probably be some damage to tree limbs as it's a heavy, wet snow and all the leaves are still on the trees and shrubs. I had hoped to pick apples today, but don't really feel like doing that in this weather. Better luck tomorrow!
