Please Define “A Dusting”
Posted on January 8, 2010 in Topaz
Last night Mr. Weatherman told me that we would see “a dusting” to maybe an inch of snow overnight, then a few snow showers in the morning with maybe another inch tops. It was snowing when I left for work this morning…and still snowing on the way home at 6:00 PM. I scraped “a dusting” off of my car and windshield in the parking lot while the snow plows worked around me. I drove over a very slippery “dusting” on the way home, then proceeded to shovel the “dusting” from my entire driveway. My fingers became numb in the 22 degree temperatures, so I decided to wait until tomorrow morning to shovel the “dusting” off of the porch and sidewalk around the house. “The dusting” was up to about 4″-5″ last time I looked out the window! I hope I wake up tomorrow and “the dusting” has disappeared, but I don’t think that will happen! Phooey on Mr. Weatherman!
