Winter here can be soft, gray, days heavy with slow fog and faint mist that never quite turns to rain. 

Winter can also be quick bundles of dark clouds that spit out rain and hail sideways, followed immediately by blinding rays of sunshine making rainbows and sparkles all over the freshly-washed everything. 

This scene is from one of those stormy/sunny days last winter. 

A bus never seemed so happy to be yellow as when the sun and rain together made it glow.
