Anyone else sick of this winter? Another 6" of snow coming! I'm almost ready to join the south and listen to the tweety birds in the window sill, even if I have to learn to drink sweet tea.

It's springtime here - 30mph winds all day!

Wind, your talking Dakota territory here. 30 mph?? that ain't wind. The wind blew so hard today it blew up my furnace vent pipe and shut down my furnace because it went negative pressure on the high effiecency chininy/vent. Came home and it was 50 degrees in the house, lucky it is spring and not cold anymore, just 30F.
Bruce, you ever ride a Triumph bike? Used to be a Bruce Page on the Trophy forum.

Up to 12 inches predicted overnight here in Mid Michigan. Think maybe it may be part of the storm that hit the Dakotas in the past several hours.

I've ridden a few but never owned one. I googled my name once, there's a lot of us.

VA weather has been real nice. 70's today, 70's Wednesday.... then cools off to 50's and 40's for a few days. I'd rather the 70's stick around though.

We barely had a winter. 85 or so yesterday, same today. Tons of sunshine. Dogwoods and azaleas in full bloom. Birds singing. Oh, and stupid high pollen count. Lived in the south all my life and I don't drink sweet tea. Come on down!

41" snow in the last 3 days, more coming through Sunday. I have had 162" total for the year. Welcome to sunny California.

I could brag about the low 80s we are having right now but then you guys wouldn't let me complain in July and August when the temp and humidity are both in the 90s (or higher).

Took me an hour and a half to clear my 300 foot drive way with my John Deere and my 60" back blade of close to 8" of heavy wet snow. Another inch fell while I was plowing. The regular plow guys put up their plows but had to haul them out again and if they are smart they will leave the plows on their trucks cause it ain't over until the fat lady wears her bikini.

HA!

In normally wet Seattle, today was the most beautiful we have had since last September. It was sunny all day long, 62, and clear
views of the snow-covered Olympic and Cascade Mountains, and Mt. Rainier sticking up over the water.

It was in the mid-50's here today. It's supposed to rain tomorrow so I mowed my lawn for the first time this year. I will fertilize to try to prevent crab grass tomorrow.

The high winds have picked up and we have grass fires everywhere. It was in the upper 80's early in the week with 40-50 mph winds. Today it is going to be in the upper 60s with light winds 10-15 mph. With Easter so late this year we have to have one more "Easter squall" that will freeze everything before summer weather is here for good.

I have 12" new snow with much more to come. I am fast approaching 200" for the year with more than 600" just up the hill. Next week is forecast to be in the 70's, My thoughts are with any of you folks in the central valley. All of our lakes are near full and releasing and we have a record snowfall about to start melting.
Jeff, the few years I lived back that way I seem to remember traditional Mothers day blizzards

You're making me fell better. I hate mowing! I hate it a little better than snow blowing.

You know, you have a real mean streak, Belinda.

Brian, who had to snow blow yesterday and this morning and just wants it to be freaking spring already!
