Oh, give it a rest, Alix. Meteorologists get hate-mail all the time. Not to mention, they aren’t the ones who (as you called it) “materialize” the weather. They just predict if that’s how it’s going to be.

Both sound great to me! Playing outside in the snow AND relaxing in front of the fire. :-)

I remember several years ago our “local” weathercaster (I’ve always called them Weather Guessers) said we would just get “flurries”. Woke up the next morning with about 6" of “Flurries”!!

Snow is really a mixed blessing when you’re visiting your daughter and she has a 200’ driveway and your son-in-law forgot it was Wednesday (trash day) and he’s sick in bed anyway, and the kids are at school and your daughter doesn’t do garbage, so you have to roll the cans to the highway, dodging the ice, or have full cans till next Wednesday, and there are 6" of snow-ice mixture on the van, and, and, and . . .

This reminds me of a legendary TV blooper; but as this is supposed to be a family strip, you’ll have to figure out (and look up) the reference on your own.
