snow forecast - for real

pretty snow from Ski Party

Could these be the hills of San Francisco this weekend?

It's a good thing I had a leftover picture from Ski Party (1965). I never thought I would ever get to do a post like this but snowfall has been predicted for San Francisco this Friday. If so, it would be the first time snow has landed here since 1976.

Originally forecasted to hit Saturday, it's moving in much faster now. It has already left its mark in Oregon. Fingers crossed it will grant my wish for snow too!

My husband remembers the 1976 snow. He still talks about it regularly. It was apparently a Very Big Deal. The tornadoes he's been through since then don't rate, at least not like the snow did.

It's the same thing here! People still talk about it. Check out the San Francisco Chronicle on-line. They posted a few photos of snow, including from 1976. I'll try to e-mail you the link.
