It fell so silently that no one knew about it until the early morning hours (except perhaps for those who were suffering from insomnia last night).
This morning, we awoke to a white blanket of snow. The temperature had fallen below freezing, and the ground around us had been painted white in the darkness of night. This winter reality, which has been absent until now, and which has caused more than just a bit of conversation and speculation, has provided many with extra opportunities for enjoying autumn much past the time that we would normally do so, but it seems to finally have come to an end.
Reports from the weather experts say that this winter is going to be particularly cold, so it's great that we've had an extended period of time to enjoy some warmer weather until now. Finally we seem to be catching up with the way things should be, and perhaps it will be a white Christmas after all.
