Snow, sort of

The NWS said, "WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 2 PM THIS AFTERNOON TO MIDNIGHT: Snow expected."  Rain was falling in the morning so K left the caps on the dish feeders. The birds were not happy.  One tried to peck through the glass to the food it could see inside.  Then lumber arrived for the dock.  Meanwhile the tide was running high for a waning gibbous moon.  A cold NNE wind was probably the cause.  Around 3pm, clumps of flakes began blowing around, melting on contact with any surface.  Eventually some flakes on vegetation didn't melt.  The snowfall continued into darkness.  Altogether a miserable day.
