But snow - in October - isn't that rather unusual even for these interesting times?
Of course that all depends on where you live. Been here since '95 and I can remember going Trick or Treating with the then munchkin-sized daughter, in shirt sleeves one year, and snow on the ground the next.

I am very surprised that we didn't get any snow here. Hard driving rain, major wind gusting up to 60kph, but no snow.
