It's Snowing in Shanghai

I was taking out the trash and happened to peek out the windows in our apt hallway when I saw the small flakes falling from the sky. I quickly ran back to my bedroom to grab my camera. Keep in mind that I’m a SoCal girl through and through and while I have seen snow before, I have never seen it falling from the sky. It wasn’t cold enough for it to stick so the ground was a cold, wet mess. But seeing falling snow was just so cooooool!! It lasted about 4 hours. Here are some pictures.


The temperature that caused this little bit of snow. Not quite "freezing" yet, but almost there. In both C and F temperature scales for those too lazy to convert (aka: me and probably you).

The first picture I took out of my bedroom widow. Excuse my poor camera skills, but if you squint you can see SNOW!

I caught some snow with my mittens. My hands were getting really cold as I stuck them out the window to take pictures.


Then it started to come down heavier, but still not sticking. A few minutes later, it all stopped. And that was the story of my first snowfall in my life. :)
