Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

No Mike,it is a very light and airy feature just a little more dense than snow,
it was gone less than a few hours after the sun came out.

Check out how it formed on the tiny fibers on this Yucca-

Very cool...I just dug the yucca out from under the snow. I wanted to get it some sun.

I would have liked to catch the Yucca in the sun but it would have lost it's hanging goodies-
