A waiting-for-Christmassy weather haiku

Chill day, opaque sky,
That certain smell in the air -
A promise of snow?


Maybe? Probably just wishful thinking on my part. I've only just dragged myself out of bed at noon, and haven't been outside yet. But it looks like it might be one of those skies...... We have in fact had a White Christmas (well, a Grey Christmas!) just about every year I've been in Beijing.
