Sideways snow

I am seeing sideways snow out my front window. Not a lot. It probably will not accumulate. It probably will just keep blowing to the eastern side of the state.
We had temperatures in the 80's F. or around 27 or 28 Celsius. for about three days. Right now the temperatures are half that warm, and falling.
There is just a little bit of fluffy white snow, that is blowing past my window sideways.
We will be in the 80's again by Tuesday.
I am staying indoors this weekend.

Indoors is the only place to be here in southern Ontario this weekend. Highly windy right now, and they keep saying we're going to get 5cm (2") of ICE PELLETS! Not nice AT ALL!
"They" also predicted a high of 17°C for Thursday but it didn't get anywhere near that warm here.

@BarBaraPrz I guess we get all the fast ones here.

@GardenGerty Unfortunately, it's a slow-moving weather system.

Well, what I am most concerned about is it looks like my cable is going to blow down. We have no accumulation. The sun even melted the little dusting off the car. Of course anything can happen overnight.

@GardenGerty I'm glad you didn't get much out of the current storm hitting N&S Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, I think Nebraska and of course Wisconsin and Michigan. Looks like it missed Kansas completely.

I would love some nice gentle rain, but plenty of it.

We're not quite in the 80's this weekend, but no snow thank goodness! I had my fill of that stuff when I lived in Montana for 6 years. My ex was in the military and was dumb enough to put in for Montana as his first choice of bases he wanted to go to...because it snowed there. Not the best place for a California gal! I was never so happy to leave the "frosty" streets of Helena for the hot asphalt of San Francisco!!!!

Besides, Montana doesn't have beaches! What was he thinking.

@GardenGerty He wasn't too bright. He was a cook and lost a rank because he gave a general food poisoning...my ex didn't rinse the Jet Dry off the dishes! The general ended up running at both ends. He was in the hospital for two weeks!

@BearArtistLady @GardenGerty I double checked my response and had a great laugh!!! The spell check on my tablet had changed what I had originally written that "he was a cook and lost a rank because he gave a general food poisoning " to: "he was cool and lost a tank because he gave a general food poisoning" ROTFL

This roller coaster weather certainly has been crazy.

It certainly has. I was just getting used to the highs. Even opened a window.

It was 80 the day before it snowed, too. They have changed our latest heat wave until Thursday, though. Only in the upper sixties tomorrow after all.

I know they are. It is always just our nature to complain about the weather.

I hope you do not get any, if you do not want it.
