First snowfall

I came back from a very pleasant 10-day trip to Spain for the Hari Raya Haji break on Sunday to a dry, grey winter day. It was unlike last year when I returned from Lebanon after a week of similar break to a whole country covered with snow. But I woke up to snow yesterday morning and it persisted all day long interspersed with rain which melted most of the snow. I was up early this morning and lo, everything was white and snow-covered, and huge branches of two trees in my garden had fallen to the grown! Winter's definitely here.....
