colder...no snow to speak of

the five to eight inches of snow forecast for yesterday fell as rain so there is no snowpack in my yard or in the fields to the south yet which makes me wonder about spring and summer...but that's a different post...the cold had arrived however and, despite the dearth of snow, the clover, vetch, and winter rye are all turning down in self defense...and am i imagining it or is the shade moss a shade lighter today...or, perhaps, a trick of the light.
