I don't want to be a Whiner but...
this is pretty early for this much snow, even here in the Lakes States. Typically we don't get big System Snows until January or February. But here is the scene as of two days ago And we got more snow last night and are to get another 6" tonight into tomorrow. I've gone through three tanks of gas in the snow blower so far. Typically I might use 4-5 tanks all winter long. I believe Tindo once told us this was symptomatic of global warming. Still don't get it, but come on, this just isn't right! And moving to Florida doesn't get it either. You are getting your share of cold weather as well. I'm going to have to get my roof shovelled for the first time this year. Normally I do it in February for one time.
How are all the other Northerners doing with snow? How about making this a "snow post" thread? I'm thinking of Kiki and all the Ohio folks. Oh and not to leave out the Canadians - you get snow, right?

I've always said that noone should live in the northern states. Too long a winter.

We have been below normal temps for three months now. I mean 20 degrees below normal. Welcome to Global Cooling - I much preferred the Warming.

You can have the whole darned bunch! I tried giving my snow to my neighbor (a misguided replant from down Susanne's way) who is trying to build a snow fort. I told him, it would be fun for a while, but after 30 years it gets real old! I have also threatened to pour kerosene on the snow and burn it! But...... would that work
