Where is the spring weather?

Last year at this time all the snow was gone and we had unseasonably warm weather. This year we just seem to get more and more snow. We just got another big dumping on Monday and more expected tonight and tomorrow. The snow bank along my driveway is 7 feet tall. How's it going in your area?

I don't know what you're talking about - it's supposed to be 80° here today.

Were expecting a storm to hit anytime now, a mix of rain and snow. I have about four feet piled up at the curb, and perhaps 8" on the lawn. Im hoping it goes soon, they are calling for it to warm up the next couple days.

The snow banks are so high, you don't need a ladder to tie a rope to the hanging branch. The big problem is you wouldn't fall far enough to have it work. :)

Snow is gone

Temps this weekend will be in the high 50s - - with a sunny day that is good enough for me to ride.

Alabama had its share of snow this year. Now we are getting too much rain. Temps are fine as it is 52 now and should reach 68 today.

Frost in the morning, rain during the day and it's quite unpredictable. I was riding around this time last year, this year it'll be -maybe- end of March...

Lucky except for the fact he is in Dartmouth! (used to live in Halifax so have to bash Dartmouth).

It has been snowing since the afternoon here, but we are supposed to get rain later tonight and go to + temps tomorrow for a few days.

Still snowing/ blowing and generally just plain NASTY outside here since 3 pm or so. And to think a week ago last Saturday it snowed and put us back in the white stuff after a melt. Did the same this past Saturday too. And was almost GONE...now again!!! What is this a cruel JOKE!!!!

Big Dump of snow...shovel it...melts next few days...get dumped on again..same thing happens and then now this...What is it Ground HOG Day repeating and now one knows!!! Where the F is Bill Murrey, I'm gonna kick him in the gonads if I see him around here in the next few days....LOL...

Boy are we all getting sick of this white sh!t!!!!

Someone needs to roast a few ground hogs too!!!! Little Bastards didn't get this one right!!!! Might as well be politicians they're wrong more then right!!!!

Scott
