Proper flurries

We had proper snow flurries today. With the temperature hovering around 30 snow flakes hovered in the sky for most of the afternoon. It is still flurries, though, not yet a snow fall. Of course gravity continues in force and many of the flying snow flakes settled to the ground. Today for the first time there were enough flakes and the ground was cold enough that collections of flakes started to gather on exposed grassy areas (and on the windshield of my car parked at work). But still only flurries.

From the FC Nantes website, Nantes season ticket holders are reminded that the Coupe de France game on Saturday is a Vertou home game and that season ticket holders do not hold priority on their regular seats. Also the game has attracted the interest of not only the local media but France 2, one of the national networks. The big network has sent a crew from what I assume is a regular show, Foot, to cover the preparations for the game.
