We have snow in the Bay Area. Not down to the valley floor.. yet. But they're calling for more showers and the predicted snow level keeps dropping. This morning it was 2500 feet. By the time I was heading home, it was down to 1000 feet, and the hills to the east of Fremont were white.

For the record: the last time it snowed down to sea level here in the San Francisco Bay Area was February 1977. I was in 4th grade, and as I recall they gave up trying to teach us half-way through the day and let us loose to hurl ice balls at each other.

That was the most amazing day! My clock-radio alarm turned on KGO right in the middle of someone babbling "Snow in the City, snow in Oakland, snow in Marin, and probably snow in your backyard!" I muttered "nah" and went to look out the window...and there was more than an inch of snow on the fence rail, and the ground was white. The I woke the rest of you up.

Remember building a row of micro-snowmen? :)

Yep! I also remember mom teaching us how to make proper snowballs.
