Pink snow in Vancouver
Here’s the view in my neighbourhood this morning:
It is surreal and beautiful too.
A tweet: Love watching the falling petals of cherry blossoms; snow that doesn’t melt. The wind blows them down the street like confetti. Slippery too.
Real snow on April 19 - No one I know remembers it snowing so late in the year
But snow at the end of March is normal - it did that last year too.
