2026 的第一场雪 The First Snow of 2026 【中文/English】

今天这座城终于等来了 2026 年的第一场雪，从午后飘到入夜。

我特意骑上单车去超市，不为采购，就为接住这难得的冬意。北方的雪天不必撑伞，温度不算太低，雪粒落在地上便化了。去时路面只有点点湿润，回来时车顶、路边已积起薄雪，风把枝桠上的雪吹得四散，我迎着风骑行，一只手扶把、一只手去接落雪，指尖冷丝丝的，心里却满是尽兴。

路上撞见孩子们在河面上滑冰，明知这温度下冰面未必结实，却忍不住羡慕他们嬉闹的模样。这几年北方的雪越来越少见，哪怕是小雪也让人珍惜，傍晚的公园里仍有人流连，不为散步，只为用相机定格这半湖流水半湖雪的景致 —— 年年看，却也年年盼。

湖面上喷泉还在涌着，中式亭台的飞檐裹在暖黄灯光里，像暗夜里发光的小宫殿。灯光落在湖面，一半是晃荡的金波，一半是凝住的冰面，点缀着没来得及化的残雪。假山上积着薄雪，古塔藏在枝桠间，覆雪的塔身泛着温润白光，在冷夜里稳稳立着。

雪把城市衬得更静，而灯光又让这静多了几分温度。

The city finally got its first snow of 2026, falling from afternoon till night.
I grabbed a shared bike to the supermarket—not to buy anything, just to soak up this rare winter feeling. Up north, you don’t need an umbrella in light snow. It wasn’t too cold, so snowflakes melted right when they hit the ground. The road was just damp on my way there, but by the time I came back, a thin layer of snow covered car roofs and the sidewalk. The wind blew snow off the branches, and as I rode against it, one hand on the handlebar and the other catching flakes, my fingers were cold but I felt totally happy.
I passed kids skating on the river. I knew the ice probably wasn’t safe in this weather, but I envied their fun. Snow doesn’t come often here these days, even a light dusting feels special. By evening, people still hung around the park—not to walk, but to snap photos of the lake: half water, half snow. We see it every year, but we still wait for it every year.
The fountain was still running, and the Chinese-style pavilion glowed warm yellow in the dark, like a tiny lit-up palace. The light hit the lake: half golden ripples, half ice dotted with leftover snow. Snow dusted the rockery, and the old tower peeked through the bare branches, its snow-covered stones glowing soft white, standing steady in the cold night.
The snow made the city quieter, and the lights gave that quiet a warm touch.
