Psst. Down there. Hey! It's me! Nature! I live in the sky and throw water down on you whenever I feel like it. Guess what? I super feel like it this year. Guess what again? It's going to snow tonight for the 35th time this season. I know--it usually only snows 30 times all season. But I like to think of myself as a wild bird who can't be caged.

Sadly but truly, an Alberta Clipper is on its way here. (We still prefer to call it a "Saskatchewan Screamer", but we don't want anyone to get confused.) Expect some snow after 9pm tonight. [National Weather Service, Trib]

After the jump, what the inside of our heart looks like right now.
