When we were in the 80s this time last year all we heard about was global warming. This year....crickets.

I believe yesterday was the 23rd day in a row that we had at least a little bit of snow. Haven't noticed any today yet. It's been okay, though. Only a few of the days resulted in more than five or six inches in a day, so it's been a rather kind winter in that regard.
Today it's sunny and 41 F last time I checked, and a lot of the snow is melting. It's still below average temperature for this time of the year, though. Should be a few degrees higher. It's been averaging about 10 F below average for the past month or so.
The picture attached is from a few days ago. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic: I took it to send to a friend of mine downstate who wanted to know what the snow was like before he made the trip up here.

Yeah... I kinda was wondering about that, too. But I'll leave it at that lest a thread composed of pretty pictures of snow wind up in SZ.

My backyard is snow-free. Migaldi is seeing a bunch of snow coming down out the window of his Amtrak train, though!

That doesn't look like 9 inches. Anyhow, if it's enough to get school cancelled here, so be it.

I'm in Ohio. So far we've had an inch of snow (which is already gone), and some freezing rain (right now). Looks like this is on it's way to me. Nothing like inches of snow on top of a layer of ice to make for a fun drive to work.

You guys are making me jealous. I'm already spraying the yard for weeds here in southern OK. The ryegrass is already green, and the bermudagrass is starting to turn. Just moments ago, I was contemplating going out to the garage to de-winterize the lawnmower.

All I see is lots of moisture to make a good corn crop with.

Yeah, I can cut the first 8 inches off of a ruler too. Most women catch on pretty quickly though

It made it to 84 here, before the rain cooled things to 75. I doubt we'll see much, if any snow, tonight.

We got about 10 inches yesterday and on the drive to the airport early this morning my car thermometer said 1F. Glad I wasn't trying to fly out yesterday. The flight was only an hour delayed (this was an airline flight).
Here in my new location it's probably high 60s and sunny.

Cold front went through Fri night, cooler on Sat with north winds. High pressure moving in today, temps up to high 70s and some weak spring thermals for soaring to about 8K MSL.
Over night temps in the low 50s, so the grass is starting to green up.

Haha! Funny how we want what we can't have. I wish we got more snow here. Winter is my favorite time of year to fly in OK. In the spring, the smooth, stable, cool air of winter gives way to spur of the moment storms and choppy southwesterly winds.
P.S. I don't have a pool, but the lake is warming up. Just about time to de-winterize the boat

We are definitely coming out to visit one summer in the next few years. Need to check out the bikini baristas.

A dusting to maybe a half inch here. Obviously we dodged a bullet. As the jet stream starts to migrate northward, I bet we'll be in the bullseye next time.
