March Wind

We had a nasty weekend. Wind. Snow. Hail. Sleet. Rain. But not enough of any of it to amount oanything. Even a bit of thunder. Don't know where the lightning was - I didn't see any. Not my kind of weather. But I guess every little drop of mositure helps when you are in a drought.
It came in like waves. First a bit of huge snowflakes that were really pretty. Then smaller ones. Then it slacked of and sun came out. An hour later it was dark again and had sleet and small bits of hail, with lots of wind. Then it was gone. Later we had rain, which changed to frozen rain. Not any fun at all.
I understand there may have been several inches of the white stuff in the mountains and higher elevations. That is good. As the snow there has been less than 50 percent of average. We can use all we can get. Even if it does make for cold, wet, and nasty weather.
