Desert climates are quite capricious at times. When I lived in the So. Calif. "high desert", one night we got 18" of snow! (The "usual" for the area was maybe a few inches at most, & not every year- it was considered an uncommon treat by most.) I thought I was hallucinating when I looked outside, with everything buried in white! But it melted pretty fast at least- it was cold enough to snow, but not cold enough to keep it for long. This current situation across so much of the country is really dangerous, between the travel difficulties & the power outages- lots of snow plus bitter wind chills. It can't leave soon enough.![]()
