Pink Marshmallow Peeps
The clouds were really moving to the North earlier. They looked so beautiful, you know the ones, they were like fluffy white marshmallows. We decided to grill chicken on the barbecue, it started out to be such a beautiful day. We figured we had until 2:00 p.m. before the rain came down, boy were we wrong.
It started raining about noon and it wasn’t long before we were looking at snow. Apparently, it only snows on the weekend. My husband tells me it’s because of the traffic patterns. I still think it’s very strange. Whatever it is, it’s not natural.
I can’t believe how hard it’s coming down. It’s really snowing out there and it’s not that light fluffy stuff either; it’s Sierra Cement. If you leave this stuff until tomorrow - if it doesn’t melt first – it will be like a rock but heavier. 
I thought last weekend was it, but it’s looking like we might actually get several inches – maybe even enough for a snowman. Have a fun weekend. Remember to carry the chains.

We been promised snow but I have to tell you it’s not looking good. Currently, it’s 37° but it feels like 25° it’s really cold out there probably because the wind is blowing. The humidity is 61 so, it could go either way. The air feels kind of heavy I can’t see (because it’s dark) the sky above so it’s anyone’s guess right now.
According to Ryan Campbell at the Union Democrat:
Forecasters say snow level could drop to 1,600 feet Wednesday
National Weather Service forecasters issued a Winter Storm Warning for the region this morning, saying rain and snow as low as 2,600 feet are all but certain late tonight.
More of the same is forecast for Wednesday — with a 100 percent chance of precipitation and snow down to 1,600 feet. While flakes may fall, little or no snow accumulation is forecast in the foothills.
I’ve got a fire burning in the wood burner and I’m going to hope and pray for snow. It will probably start around 4:00 a.m. I’ll let you know. Drive safely, slow down the roads maybe icy in the morning.
