Would you like to guess when it will snow in North Central Minnesota? Would you like to guess when it will snow in the Okanagan area of British Columbia? Do you like notecards? ( Mostly with flowers on them?)
If so leave me a guess.. the date ..and then morning, afternoon, evening or overnight. The person with the closest correct guess without going over will win!!
Then head on over to Jen’s Muddy Boot Dreams. Jen moved to the Okanagan last December. She is anxiously awaiting that first snowfall…so enter a guess at her place too! Take it from me a trip by her place is a treat for your eyes..she takes beautiful photographs!
Here in Minnesota we are not so anxiously waiting. I wonder who will have the first snowfall? I hope it is Jen…I wish her lots and lots of snow:)

ReplyDeleteOctober 19th overnight into October 20th :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photo's!
I would guess October 30th for a sprinkle of snow ! In BC could be anytime as I live in Canada and our snow can fly any time ! All though parts of BC right now are still having a hot summer ! Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteI will guess am Nov. 17th.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Well, I guess it might be November 2, waking up to a nice dusting of snow that fell during the night of November 1.
ReplyDeleteI pick November 3
ReplyDeleteI am hoping the snow holds off for a while. But with the way the weather has been lately I'll say October 31.
ReplyDeleteOver nighton the 14 to 15th of Oct. Geri W.
ReplyDeleteNovember 6th afternoon.
ReplyDeleteWell, thank you Far Side, lol, and hey I wish you lots, and lots of snow too. Giggle.
ReplyDeleteLove that photo of Chance, he's so handsome.
And I am wishing you many opportunities to get those photos of Chance in the snow this winter, maybe starting oh around October 30th.
Jen @ Muddy Boot Dreams
Now I'm not sure if you are talking about the first snow to stick, or just fall out of the sky. I'm predicting Oct 25th, afternoon.
ReplyDeleteEven here we've had snow come down before Halloween, but not for a lot of years now.
I think Jen at MBD lives in a wetter part of the Okanagan than where we are possibly retiring to.
Just the first snow to fall out of the sky..long enough to get a photo! :)
DeleteNovember 15th
ReplyDeleteI am praying for snow to douse the forest fires in the area. I am so over the smoke that hangs in the air and making everything smell like a campfire.
I say overnight on October the 28th, just in time for the full moon! Don't you love how clean border collies look in the winter (sighs and looks at muddy Tess!)
ReplyDeleteNovember 8th, early afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI guess Nov. 17. And I can't believe Georgia was not included in this game!!!!!!! ha
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous photo of Chance at the end of your post.
You guys have a nice weekend.
October 13, morning. I can practically feel it now!
ReplyDeleteI think I'll beat you with the snow. That's all I'll predict!
ReplyDeleteOh my, I just put out my pumpkins, and you want me to guess the first snowfall. Well, I'm in!!! October 25th in the evening,. P.S. I missed your birthday yesterday. Happy Birthday a day late, hope it was a good one!!!
ReplyDeleteI am with you on that "not so anxiously" waiting for snow! I'm so out of touch with what it is like to have a first snowfall that I'll defer to all the experts above. :D
ReplyDeleteOct 21st at about 5 pm..wow whee, Okanagon about Oct 15, 4 pm..wow whee from mary s. at momanddad00@clear.net - we are to get a lot I can feel it with summer hanging on we will be buried and no power for a while, it always happens that way, people are forced to be inside with no power, I am already ready, lots of food ready to eat, some water, drinks and cat food, lots of warm blankets, warm layers for heat, gloves, hats and scarves..I don't mind I have nice lamps that will cast a light, we are gearing up, snow we don't get that much when it does drop, the ice follows, power goes out and we live like many did coming to the pacific northwest hundreds of years ago and they never complained, their fireplaces sustained them with whatever fuel they used they were not unhappy...just saying mary s. from momanddad00@clear.net!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking we'll have visible flakes on October 11th. Nothing will stay on the ground, though...I hope. ;)
ReplyDeleteChance looks so handsome against the snowbanks! :)
I'm guessing Oct. 22nd.
ReplyDeleteNice blog you have!
Happy Week, G

P.S. Keep it out there whenever it arrives!!
Nov. 7 Ann
ReplyDeleteNovember 21 Susan R. believes measurable snow of at least a inch. in the evening.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm taking this serious. So knowing that in the PNW we are going to be effected by El Nino and it will be dry and warm, I wondered what if any the effect in Minnesota is from El Nino. You are supposed to also be warmer and dryer than normal, except in past El Nino events you run fairly normal. But I personally am hoping to really be effected by El Nino and last year not during an El Nino event you had less snow than normal at least at the beginning right? But then you are just asking for first snow, not necessarily the snow that stays or dumps a lot.
ReplyDeleteWell here goes, oh and I see I am weighing in very late on this, not many spots left and of course none of the dates I was aiming for soooo...... November 7-8 overnight.
