drifts to the valley
swirl in breeze

It’s the ice beneath the snow that’s so treacherous–yikes!!!! In the Seattle area, that’s usually the situation–since it mostly rains, ices over, and then maybe thinks about snowing a bit… 🙂

That’s an idea…I’ve detected a snow feel in the air–probably moisture and more…smells are probably enhanced in a snowy way…I can think of not so pleasant ones at dog parks…. 🙂
