It's here

The first icy, bonechilling raw day of winter has arrived in the northeast. .

You know how in the one Christmas cartoon for kids, the cold wind blasts down from the north pole, with big curlique swirls?

It's doing that. Here. Today.

I went out for a quick errand. The sleet/rain was pelting against me and the cold was creeping down my jacket sleeves. The wind was trying to push me back, away from the door I so desperately wanted to reach.

Horrid.
