    It’s snowing here right now, good 1/2” on the ground already. Were supposed to be in the outer bands of it here though.

    Our first day of March was a mixed bag but mostly sunny with little wind.

    I was in Boston today, and flew to Miami tonight. At the airport they were preparing for flights after 10 AM to be severely delayed/canceled due to the winds. Glad I flew out tonight!

    Ah yes, March indeed. Yesterday there wasn’t a trace of snow on the ground.

    Only a ground cover of snow this morning. Looks like we'll have a sunny day.

    You win. if you can call that "winning" :whistle:

    Yeah, I got stuck in the driveway with the 4 wheeler, had to shovel out the end of the driveway and make half passes at what the snowplow left for me.

    Then plowed neighbors driveway as she is 4 months pregnant and was gonna shovel it all by hand.
    I guess I'm just an old fashioned sexist that should be punished in today's society, but I don't think a 4mo pregnant woman should be shoveling all that crap by hand.

    Her husband would normally take care of it, but he's taking care of his elderly grandmother for a few days.

    We got between 12-15" in general, but the snowbanks and drifts are easily 2'.:doh:

    Regarding the temp on the deck thermometer, all that snow will compact underneath tires once you try driving in it....but you know that already!

    That thermometer doesn’t work, but’s it’s spot on in that picture for some reason!

    On the road
    Just got back from a nice 22 mile bike ride.
    After 3 wks of flu, snow/ice, great to be back on the road.
    Had a bite to eat in the back yard.....in shorts....in the 68F sun.

    We are headed into drought conditions for this spring.
    I would welcome your 30".
