What I was calling “Lightdusting Leon” turned into a little more than an inch ? of snow in the Five Points neighborhood of Raleigh. I don’t know about the rest of Raleigh, because a) I don’t check the weather much and b) I haven’t left my house. The neighborhood kids are out though — sledding the street in front of my house and in Fallon Park.
Don’t you think it’s hilarious and odd that the media calls these weather events “storms?” I don’t generally think of gently falling, teeny tiny flakes as a “storm.” And, what’s with naming a “snow storm?” Leon is a great name and all, but seriously? This wasn’t the blizzard of (what year was that? I think I was out of school for a couple of weeks!) Although, I did get a kick out of my renaming: Lightdusting Leon. Hehehe.
Here are some snaps from just inside the door…
