It should work on everything. My guess it's easier to use an actual computer though.

The sad thing is, this is the best looking snow I've seen all season at my house (I went to SFU on the Solstice), and it's not even close to sticking yet.

Actually seeing some light flurries here now. Was staring at the streetlight for a good five minutes. :lol:

Still getting some fairly decent NE winds so it's blowing around.

IT IS NOW ACTUALLY SNOWING. A little swirly in the wind, but this is the type which WILL settle if given a couple hours.
