WTF Weather, Part 9,427
Utah’s weather has not been as unpredictable as Ohio, and yet this winter/spring/whatever has had more late-season snow than I’ve seen since moving here.
It was snowing on April 15, and I was all “ack!” Then it warmed up and was beautiful and reached 80 degrees last week. And now, today, the morning rain turned into “OMG is it SNOWING?!?”
So, like the sane person I am, I rushed out with my camera to take some photos. The tulips were all scrunched up tightly and I think I heard them saying “WTF is this shit all about?” I came back inside for an umbrella because the flakes were big and wet—and Ben offered to come out with me to hold the umbrella. How sweet!
Naturally, our neighbor drove by and stopped in front of our driveway to roll down his window. “Hi kids! How’s it going?” he asked. I’m sure we were a sight, with me in a winter coat and elephant pajama pants and Ben in a t-shirt holding the umbrella over me and the camera but not himself.
I took these photos around 3pm, and it did finally stop snowing after an hour or so. There’s a dusting of accumulation on the ground now. I guess we won’t be going to the local tulip festival after all today.
