Rain in February?

-It’s turned to snow now. Yesterday was nice weather. Colorado type weather. Warm, not windy, made inside feel stifling and hot, and windows were open all over. The fog moved in, and then the rain clouds. By the time I walked outside this morning, the ground was soaked and the rain continued all day. Sometime this evening, it turned to sleet, and now its snow. White, fluffy snow, coating everything, driving down through the glow of the streetlights and flies up your nose as you breathe in. Underneath all this white fluffy stuff is a layer of slush and water. It makes it fun for sliding around corners in your car, but sliding with the soles of your shoes isn't so easy. The snow is too wet, too heavy, and half the time it's not snow. If it cools down tonight, all the ice that forms will be fun in a bad way. But if it gets more snow and is all nice and fluffy, then snowboarding at Mt. Kato is going to be a grand adventure! We shall see. But it’s still odd to have seen rain in Minnesota in February, especially above all the dead brown grass and dwindling dirty snowdrifts.
