It is a bit early.
Last year we had the first snow on November 26, 2010:

Not been able to the see the mountain today but I'm not surprised.

It's felt like the usual summer/ winter changeover for the past 48 hours.

The local farmer delivered my eggs last night and said the snow was a month early and he said we are in for a cold/long winter, In Chio we have the fiesta of San Andres with the new wine (and very mad people on go-carts) but he said it wont be ready in time as the grapes were a month late because of the cool summer.

Frost in Glasgow this morning and snow on the higher up hills,also very early for Teide to have snow so it looks like a long winter all round.

It was 2.5 degrees here in Cumbernauld when I was leaving work at 8pm last night..... Guess it's time for me to look out the socks and shoes/boots and put away the summer sandals!!!!

I hate this inbetweeny stage. Bit nippy up here in the hills first thing, well it is when I walk to the bus stop at 7.15 a.m., then by lunchtime down in Fanabe it is hot. What does a girl wear? does the weather not realise what confusion it causes a girl when she has to dress warmer going to work then strip half of it off coming home because the sun is blaring :)

And I am one of the intelligent ones that just watches with a wine from the tuck shop
