Yesterday was one crazy day of weather. It started out as a heavy rain. I had bundled all up for the walk to work and was thinking this is one day when I wish I had a car but then my neighbors pulled up and I decided to op for the ride. Once at work in my cubicle, I don't have a window so the weather isn't much of a thought but at 10 am I went to the kitchen to fill my water bottle and was surprised that it was still dark outside. A little while later one of my coworkers yelled it snowing. I jumped right up to see the sight. There were very large flakes of snow swirling around in circles. It was beautiful. I could have watched all day but I had work to do. Every so often I would think of some reason to find a window. I love the snow and was beginning to worry that my husband in North Dakota was going to get measurable snow before we did.
By the afternoon the weather was right on the border of rain and snow. I was hoping for a snow shower to walk home in but I got rain. And wind. The wind was howling through the trees and my cheeks got very cold. We had gotten a lot of rain as there were large puddles everywhere. A couple hours after arriving back to my warm house the rain again turned to snow. I sat on the couch and watched for awhile. Then it stopped. In the western part of the sky, the sky was lit bright orange. It was amazing. It just glowed. Then as time went by it turned pink and then faded into night. It was so totally different than a normal sunset. It gave everything a golden glow. It was an amazing day of weather.
