Snow in Seattle


I do love snow and snowstorms, but I am truly thankful for our mild, somewhat gray climate right now.  Seeing the satellite images of the massive storm which blew through 30 states last week, was somewhat shocking!



We have no snow to speak of in Seattle at the moment.  Just some rain.  Lots of clouds.  Occasional glimpses of the sun and temperatures in our usual 40's.  But we do have snowdrops!




Snowdrop bulbs take just a few minutes to pop into the ground in October and are well worth the effort. When they are massed, which happens naturally after many years, they do look like a snowdrift.  But even in little clusters, they are a cheery addition to the winter garden.
