The weather this fall has been weird. Record high temperatures followed by record low temperatures. I always look forward to the crisp fall days but this year we haven't had them yet.

A late fall flower wondering what this white stuff is falling from the sky. |
Today we had our first snow of the season. It was supposed to be a light dusting but it turned out to be a bit more substantial triggering a Winter Weather Advisory.

Our oak tree's leaves haven't changed color yet but they are covered in heavy snow. |
It's a bit early for snow here. I do remember a snowfall this early sometime in the last ten years but I don't remember which year. Usually the first snow is in November or December. Like the last time it snowed this early, it won't last long. This week - a month late in my opinion - the crisp fall air will finally arrive bringing the temperatures back to normal and melting all the snow.

Visibility is a bit limited by the falling snow. |
I wonder if this is a preview of the winter to come.
