My relatives have often used the word "skift" to refer to a trace of snow that just barely covers the ground. "Looks like we got a "skift" of snow." I have no idea where it came from. Perhaps from some German or Scandinavian tongue?
skift - (a) A share, portion; lot, fate; (b) an effort, attempt, a try
skift (v) - (a) To divide or share out something; distribute, divide up; also, be divided; ~ in sonder, disperse (a group of people), scatter; ~ me even, give me my fair share; even skifted, evenly matched in number, in equal strength; (b) to arrange, ordain; arrange, ordain, cause to occur; also, rule (a country), manage (a horse); also, protect (sb.), save; be skifted of, evade, be rid of.
From OE sciftan.
