First Snowfall

It fluttered with snow today, the first time this year. Just a few wet flakes, but no doubt the harbinger of more severe and prolonged falls later this month.

One of the Gnome's employees looked out of his window and commented that the larger the snowflake, the less likely it is to snow for long.

Is this true he wonders? His interest now piqued - a throwback to his training as a scientist no doubt - he intends to study this theory as the flakes drift pass the office and let the world know of his findings.
