Heavy, Wet Snow Dropping Out of Sky

Saturday was weird with heavy wet flakes of snow dropping out of sky while I walked down to the library. Two minutes earlier it was blue skies, followed by heavy snow showers.

Frozen Wetlands

The previous day's freezing rain, left the entire area coated with a thick layer of ice on the snow. The trees were not cold enough to freeze up, but where it hit the deep snow, ice was everywhere.
