A stylistic suggestion: whenever you feel like adding {'e' vIHar}, 
consider using a Type 6 suffix on the verb instead.

QIbDaj leghbe'qu'law' wutlh Ha'DIbaHwI'
my underground animal apparently did NOT see his shadow

Or substitute {-ba'} for "obviously" or {-bej} for "certainly."

Err... I forget, did TalkNow! turn {peD} into a noun? If it did, it has 
to go at the end in the subject position. If not, you should just drop 
the reference to falling:

naDev peDbe'taH
it isn't snowing here

This is difficult to parse, although I know what you mean. I might say

bIrHa'choHtaH jajmey
the days are getting warmer
