I was lucky today to finally experience what I guess is called sleet. As I was getting ready to head out for the day I glanced outside and said "oh its snowing." When I looked 5 mins later I said "oh its raining." After the bike ride to work I have come to the conclusion that when I have to chose between rain, snow, hail or sleet falling on me, I will skip sleet. But over all its been warm here... it snowed a few inches on Sunday but already it has all melted.
As you can guess... not much going on. This was just a weather update as I try to keep this page from going static. Hope all is well and warm!

Hi Brian,
It is sleet if it feels like tiny knives poking you in the face and it hurts!
Oh. I guess it wasn't sleet then. At least not in American English. When I look it up at wikipedia there are two definitions. Then what is the American word that describes the UK type sleet - a mix of snow and ice?
How lucky you are to have a choice of weather - snow, sleet, hail. I did laugh when you said you could skip the sleet!
Glad you keep up the blog - it's fun to check every so often and see if there is anything new.
