A light rain falls all day today. Later tonight or early Sunday it is suppose to turn into snow. Not sure how much we will get. Fed the birds earlier. They have plenty of water from the rain. So they are all set. Laundry is almost done. Cats are sleeping as usual. Photo is mine. Snowball Lantana blooms on my deck from the summer.

That’s a pretty lantana. I hope we don’t get snow but it’s probably wishful thinking. Hope yours won’t get too bad.

@CarolDM I don’t know. Watching the weather it looks like you will have snow and ice. We shouldn’t have it quite as bad since we are south of you.

These are such beautiful blooms, we had a snowball bush in our yard at the first house. Its blossoms were solid white though and they lasted about two days.

@CarolDM I wonder why our snowball bush only bloomed once, then it was finished.

So Snowball Lantana is the name of this flower! So today you might be later sharing a snow picture. The pets are hopefully feeling warm and cosy.

Beautiful flower. I've been watching that storm all day. Now it's in the south. Is it going to sweep back up north and catch us?

@CarolDM The Weather Channel says 5-8" and windy. The Carolinas could get up to 1/2" of ice. They will be calling Morton Salt in a panic.

@CarolDM Sure thing! Really fun little birds who arrive from up north and leave by spring.

I am going to get some snow too, but I am not sure if it is going to stick to the ground. While it is snowing; it is going to stay above 32 degrees.

I love Lantanas and the way they bloom pretty much all summer long, into the fall. And there are so many beautiful combinations of colors of them. One of my favorites.

I am going to try to grow some here, many people have it in their yards in the city so maybe it'll grow out here too, that one in the photo is really pretty.

Beautiful picture. It's been cloudy and colder all day. Ours is supposed to begin after midnight as well and go through Monday morning. Unfortunately, they are also saying freezing rain will be in the mix for us which I don't want. I got our laundry caught up just in case we lose power. Got extra blankets out and ready too. I've been wanting to make some more chili. Perhaps one day next week. Right now we have homemade soup and some beef roast and sides in the fridge. Have to finish them before making anything else. Stay warm and safe. Have a blessed evening.
