The dead of winter

[morrow]

We’ve had several systems stall here , about 80cm of snow so far this weekend , another 20 tonight through the morning. My favourite dive even had to cancel most gigs this weekend , and up in Cape Breton it’s worse.
I’m stiff from shovelling and running the snowblower. Heavy winds so it blows right back in after you clear it.
The roads are a mess.
Feeling like I’ve had enough.

My son lives in Topanga and says snow is currently the least of their concerns there!

Having a mild one here in Chicago. Got some good snow recently, and some brutal low temps, but it's mostly melted and we're having 40 degree days more often than not.

Mild winter at present in Fort Collins CO.  We just got back from a week in Cozumel...I got in four dives in 80 degree water.

Nice.  We were just in Costa Rica and I was able to get six dives in.

We've gone from the second snowiest winter on record to almost no snow so far this season.

You Yanks are sooo spoiled, even weather-wise you have it all!

We've gone from the second snowiest winter on record to almost no snow so far this season.

We had about two weeks of cold in Nov/Dec., but since then it's been 30s to 50s daytimes.  Not much snow (so far) other than in the mountains, but March usually evens it out.

It had been wonderful and mild right up until last weekend.

and then we got clobbered

[Dave W]

It's only early February, we could still get clobbered all the way until the end of April. At least the later it is, the less chance it will stay on the ground for long.

I'm breathing a sigh of relief with this last storm which is staying to the south of New Hampshire. My snowblower is sitting in the shed with two flat tires I never bothered to get fixed before the season. So far I've managed to clear my driveway with just a shovel. I figure I could use the exercise although it can get a little taxing on the back. Looks like you won't have to worry about any accumulation either morrow. My condolences to any of you dealing with it in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and parts of New Jersey or  Pennsylvania.

[morrow]

5 to 10 inches is what they’re saying at the moment. Most of it will be over night.

[Dave W]

We're finally getting a little Wednesday night, but they're not expecting more than an inch here in the northern burbs and it will be gone in a day anyway.

Ugh, yeah, I've done similar. The only two snows we've had so far were too wet to use the blower for anyway. I've got close to 100' of driveway from the garage to the street.

Our projected one inch turned out to be seven.

I hadn't touched my snowblower since prepping it for the season in late October. Started right up!
