I know shoveling is not our favorite activity, and driving or walking in the snow isn’t always fun. But we are in a record long dry spell, in the middle of a drought.
Human impacts upon mother nature have changed our climate drastically already. And now the chickens are coming home to roost. If we don’t get a very wet, snowy winter, there will be some hard times ahead for all of the western half of our country. There won’t be enough water for crops. We may have to have water rationing. And the fire season may be incredibly dangerous.
So I think perhaps you will forgive me, and even join in with me in praying for snow. The weather forecast today says some rain, and tonight a little snow, but it’s less than an inch of accumulation. We need some heavy prolonged snow this winter. So that’s what I am praying for: several heavy snow falls all winter long.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
