Snow Already?!

[crazycanuck]

Actually, i'm whinging about the heat today & it's not that hot! I went for a ride this afternoon & I remembered there's no shade really along any of the paths in Perth

I'll just send visions of warm sunshiny days to you

Woke up this AM to 2 inches of snow on the ground - I just place another order for MORE winter cycling clothes (since this is the first year I didn't hang up the bike on Labor Day - new bike - can't do that) - What ever happened to global warming??? We had a very early, very cold winter last year, no spring, a summer that practically never got over 80 and now another early winter - NO - It can't be true!!!

Snow is forecast for Virginia tonight...and I bet in Zen's neck of the woods, too. Not down here where I live, mind you, but further up and out. Pretty rare down in these parts this time of year.

Yeah I just read they're forecasting "a few flakes" north and west of DC.

Worse, I read 2 long-range forecasts that said this winter will be colder than average in the mid-Atlantic.

I just bought down-filled gloves from LL Bean. Part of my quest for my personal holy grail, a pair of gloves that actually keep my hands warm during low-level activities like walking around outside or driving the car. I would have bought the down mittens but they didn't have my size (I was at their store, not buying online). I will probably try to get the mittens, too, just for fun.
