Always Take the Weather

One of the things I’ve been loving since moving back to Buffalo has been the weather. I know you’re all “Are you crazy?!” or “It snows!” No I’m not crazy, and yes it snows. But we have seasons. DC has winter and humid. Spring lasts about a week, if you’re lucky, and winter doesn’t have much of a personality.

From what I’ve been told, and reminded of, Buffalo gets a lot of snow in winter; I’ve not lived through a winter since 1997 so my memory of it all is foggy. I know I’ll have to buy boots, relearn how to drive in it, and get emergency supplies for the car, but I’d rather deal with snow over hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, or floods any day.

Plus, we get some of the best cloud formations. The big pond, otherwise known as Lake Erie, that gives us such spectacular snow also gives us some of the most amazing cloud formations one could ask for.

 

About MissMita

After being away since 1998, I moved back to Buffalo in August 2011. I teach English as a Second Language and while challenging, I think it’s the best job in the world. If I weren’t teaching I’d be a Haus Frau and bake bread everyday. I’m a self proclaimed “East Coast Liberal” and nerd with a love of Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, The Decemberists, R.E.M., Bruce Cocburn, tattoos, and knitting.
