Early snowstorm

Oh, this is scary! We've been forecast to have a cold winter but I don't remember the last time we got walloped with a big, blizzardy snowstorm so early in the season! Here in Maine things have come virtually to a standstill. The world outside it white and the wind is whipping the snow around. All around me people are grumbling. I see this as a perfect day for sitting at my desk and writing an outline for the new story I've got percolating.

Snow...long winter...yeah, I think I'm going to like this!

How about you? Any snow in your area? Or are you lucky enough to be in one of those warm, sunshiney states?
