We got as little dusting of snow overnight, so there's a gradual sense that we're getting a little winter in spite of El Nino. I was able to take care of this with a broom, which is the exact right amount for me, though it's a little light for Gunnar-man, our snow-loving pooch, as he requires it to be deep enough to chomp (why I haven't turned him into a Flintstones-style snow blower is beyond me).
