Winter solstice
Dec. 21st, 2008 08:40 pmIt is still snowing.
It has snowed all day, sometimes heavily, sometimes lightly. It snowed all day yesterday and much of Thursday. Friday, the snow took time off from falling, but the already-fallen snow did not melt and drain away.
Every surface that approaches horizontal outside, every surface that can hold snow, does. At least eight inches of snow are stacked up all over.
I had forgotten how light it is at night when there is that much clear crystalline structure reflecting and refracting every bit of available light.
