The snow that is currently falling is my favorite sort of snow, large flakes that are slightly wet. Just sticky enough to highlight all the trunks and branches of the trees and shrubs, the boughs of pine branches looking like they're trying to hold onto an armful of snow. There is almost no breeze to speak of, so the flakes are falling heavily, making a bee line to the ground. Everything rapidly getting draped in a heavy silencing white blanket. ...and there is clearly more than the 2-3" that was forecasted...
