ngl, this weather is a little weird, though pretty. It's not unusual to get snow in Toronto in the first half of November, but it's normally flurries or a light dusting that melts in <12 hrs. Where I live, it looks like ~5-6 cm. Apparently this is the earliest we've gotten 5 cm of snow since 1969.

I think we have 2-3 cm of accumulation so far? We don't usually get snow when there are still red leaves on the trees.

We're supposed to get about 5 cm of snow tonight, so this feels like the last day of leaf season.

There's a small bookstore in one of the hospitals on Hospital Row. (Not the one where I'm being treated, but nearby.) I visited it a few weeks ago and took this picture of my books in the romance section.

Saw a very faint rainbow when I was out this afternoon. Took a picture, and if I squint, I think I can see it?

Anyway, here are some leaf pictures instead.
