What is the concept of this sentense:"Ew." Snow. There went my good day."
It is a sentence from a story called "Twilight" and the paragraph is:
I looked at the little cotton fluffs that were building up along the sidewalk and swirling erratically past my face.
"Ew." Snow. There went my good day.
He looked surprised. "Don't you like snow?"
"No. That means it's too cold for rain." Obviously. "Besides, I thought it was supposed to come down in flakes — you know, each one unique and all that. These just look like the ends of Q-tips."

Question

Answer

"Ew." is an expression of disgust. "Ew, I just stepped on a worm." 
"There went my good day" means she was expecting to have a good day. She thought she was entitled to a good day. She is thinking of the good day as "hers." She sees the snow. She had a picture of a good day in her mind. Now, because of the snow, she will not have a good day. The good day that "was hers" is now "gone" because of the snow. "There went" figuratively means you are watching something go away.
"Ew. Snow."
