09DEC2013 Accumulation: 8.5 Days Since Last Precip: 1

SNOW!  After OVER A YEAR, we finally were recipients of measurable snow!  The season started with a sudden and unexpected fall of 8.5" of snow (followed by a night of rain to wash it away).  In a pre-Christmas Miracle of sorts, crap immediately sprouted in the streets to save spots.

The First Sighting.  Quiet, slight in stature, the slightly folded folding chair defends its territory.

A teeny tiny pylon forced into labor  before winter even starts.
