La neige

We met up with two other families yesterday, just as fresh snow transformed the yard into a winter playground. Five kids raced, rolled, and laughed their way through the drifts. Our little one, the youngest of the bunch, kept up with all the excitement, but by the end, exhaustion settled in. A joyful, snow‑filled afternoon.

Brrrr.

My home automation setup includes an outdoor thermometer. Interesting swing this morning, from near freezing to omg freezing.

I think I need to 3d print a Stevenson shield for it though. The temperature didn’t cross 0C yesterday, and I think there are microclimate effects involved. The sensor is wireless, so no biggie to move.

Snow.

From our house, we can often see up to 70 km on a clear day—and for brief moments today, that was actually true. But when the snow started falling, the view vanished. One minute I could see for miles, the next I was lucky to make out anything beyond 100 metres.

Overnight, the snowstorm wrapped every street, rooftop, and horizon in a seamless blanket of silence. Edges blur, colors fade, and the familiar becomes dreamlike. Stepping outside feels like walking through a freshly erased sketch, waiting for new lines to be drawn.

The ❄ is:
  1. Perfect for snowmen
  2. Skiiable.
  3. about 100% water content.
If you're looking for me I'll be napping after my shoveling ordeal.
