weather report, according to the old english:Hægl byþ hwitust corna; hwyrft hit of heofones lyfte,
wealcaþ hit windes scura; weorþeþ hit to wætere syððan.
(Hail is the whitest of grains, whirled from the loft of heaven, swirling in the gusts of wind, and then into water it melts.)~~
Is byþ ofereald, ungemetum slidor,
glisnaþ glæshluttur gimmum gelicust,
flor forste geworuht, fæger ansyne
(Ice is exceedingly cold, immeasurably slippery.
glistening glassily, it most resembles gems,
a floor wrought by frost, beautiful to look upon.)
well actually they're definitions from the old english rune poem, but that is pretty much what i see out of the window this moment.
