"Snain"

This is my new word for the Tehachapi snow/rain combo we've been getting. I know, many people might believe it would be called 'sleet', but I felt creative. "Snain", I've decided is much less heavy then ordinary sleet and perhaps a bit more whimsical as it wafts on the breeze/wind....(plus,it helps ease my guilt when we have to go to work and leave the pups outside in it).
