227: Snow at Home!!!

I have lived here in Palmerston North since 1984, and have never seen snow here ever before. But this afternoon it snowed steadily for at least an hour and it settled!

PS: Some more snow photos and video are on my Nomad Blog.

  3. I have to admit that the first snowfall in Autumn is exciting but never the excitement that has been generated in Palmerston North! Enjoy!!

  6. Michèle, Karin, this is pretty much likely to be the only time I ever see my backyard like this so if is a huge buzz! I have lived here for 25+ years and never ever have I seen snow- apart from once or twice looking hard for a few drops of it amongst what was probably sleet. Andrew, I don't know how the birds fare- something they are not used to, that is for real...
