Snnooowwwwww...!!!!!!
Is it worth to wait an entire night, awake, to see a snowfall?
I bet you think it is insane. I bet in fact every one thinks it is insane. Well...not me...!
No one can understand...I know...but this is something that really gives me emotions...big emotions...
You can give snow a few hours of your sleep, cos what you get back is priceless...
The days before...the beauty of the wait...checking weather charts,
checking every possible update, looking for confirmation from different
models... until the hours before the events come, when it is time to
look at satellite images and rainfall radar...and eventually out of the
window...in silence...concentrated...ready to spot the fist flakes
falling from the sky...and then another one and one more...and a smile
appears...and you feel happy...I just love all of that...
It started to snow at around 5.20...and stopped at 7.15...Minutes
before 6 the snowfall was impressive...really really heavy...Roofs and
cars turned white in few minutes...not the streets and pavements
unfortunately.As soon as it started I took
my camera...and in few seconds I was walking around Clifton...smelling
the snow in the air...feeling flakes brushing my face...

Leon, you are really funny !!!! But it's great that you can feel such joy from the little things in life that make you smile.
But you stayed up all night. Crazy. Surely if you were GOOD, you could have predicted roughly that the snow would start around 5 - 6 am. Ha Ha.
Though I'm glad Spring has finally arrived here.
