The breath of God produces ice, and the broad waters become frozen. He loads the clouds with moisture; he scatters his lightning through them. At his direction they swirl around over the face of the whole earth. Job 37:10 (NIV)
What a progression in the weather today. I saw snow flurries around 4 am. Sometime later, I heard the pelting of sleet. Around 10 am, I noticed freezing rain had replaced the snow and sleet.
The pine trees are bowing down under the cover of ice. The old cherry tree is striking in its crystal glazed silhouette. The bird feeders are crowded and the usual chatter is hushed in the stillness of the morning. Under a dreary gray sky, the landscape is a dazzling crystal kingdom.
