Harry Potter Fans With No Life

I hear ya on that...no driving on crappy roads good. The temps over the past few weeks did the same here. Allowed my driveway to di-ice and the mounds of snow to shrink nicely, of course, just in time for the next 2 snow storms (30" total blah). lol. Now we're just cold and dealing with wind chills. Not supposed to last too long but we'll see. Two potential storms this week; Tuesday is still supposed to miss us but Thursday have to keep an eye on. Fingers crossed.

yuck Moo!
and we got more of the white crap ... ugh ... started yesterday afternoon and carried on through the night.

tired of this crap! Is it too much to ask for dry pavement??? Or moisture in the form of rain instead???

We got around 4-5 inches of snow yesterday evening/night, but its sunny right now and melting off like crazy. It was just dumping at times, and we really need the water... but I still like warmer and pretty over freezing and sliding ....

Looks like 3 to 6 inches Wednesday night into Thursday so that's doable. Just hoping it doesn't get any worse. And I'm with both of you. I love snow but this time of year, I'm so sick and tired of it. Time for the snow to migrate to Figgy's neck of the woods to help ease their drought conditions. So ready for warmer temps so I can open my windows and get some fresh air in here.

yes - it is time for Mother Nature to bring on a real SPRING.

Happy 1st Day of SPRING

Happy Spring to all you Northern-ers, and Happy Autumn to Tonks, Sixxy, and Doc Susie!



Our one Denver TV station just showed their "stats" for this year... They are a few thousand feet lower in altitude, so are more of a banana belt than where I live, but its still close enough to make me worry about the fire season that's coming....

Denver snowiest to least snowy months and the average snowfall in each :
March 11.4", April 8.9", Dec. 8.1", Feb. 7.7", Nov. 7.5", Jan. 6.6".

This month they only have had 0.7", this season 19.4", Average for a season there is 46.5".

So, Denver has had under half the snow they usually get over a winter. While we have had more snow than they have, its still below half what it should be up here, too.

You guys have been hogging all our snow!

.

Happy Spring!

Not by choice, trust me. We're not supposed to get much but maybe what we don't get will find Figgy's neck of the woods...late season blizzard. March isn't done yet...fingers crossed...

I agree ... certainly not by choice. mind you, we have been in drought conditions for a couple years now, so we also need the moisture. I just simply prefer moisture in a form I don't have to shovel.

more nasty snow and storms on their way.... Feb and March have been brutal this year. Our Feb went down in history as one of the coldest months since weather has been recorded. Is it too much to ask for warm weather and rain showers?????

ew! Stay safe, Howler.

Looks like we'll be in a bit of a lull for a the next week. Snow showers Sunday and that's pretty much it. Rumors of low 50s sometime next week. Yea! Maybe you can get some of that snow to go Figgy's way to help their drought conditions. We've had our share here, too, tho it's been a couple of years.
