Precipitation. . .most likely rain.

Seven-year-old Eliza Grace carried a hand-made paper wind sock as she walked home from school yesterday. She, Magdalena and I stopped at my apartment, adapted our attire, and met up with Butch. As we walked to the track for a one-mile run, she talked about the wind sock and how it measured the wind.
I pointed at the clouds and asked, "What do you think those clouds tell us?"
"Precipitation," she answered. "Most likely, rain."
And here in Virginia, that IS true. But yesterday, the clouds apparently warned of our first snow.
