Local Trivia: See under Freezing over, Hell

I looked out the window of the Goodwill on Sunday and saw what looked like a serious snowstorm.

"Is that snow?" I asked incredulously, my voice betraying apprehension.

The cashier glanced out the window and paused a second, then went back to wrapping my "bric-a-brac" (as the cash register categorized it).

"No," she said. "That's pollen."

She was right, but still -- it was eeries to walk out into the hot sun with white stuff swirling around me.
