The weather is beyond bizarre here, it's been fluctuating mostly in the 40s' for months now. We're getting some flurries this evening but it's heavy and wet, and won't stick. No white Christmas here this year. |
Where is here? The Midwest is a big place!

Be careful what you ask for.

I know! They keep saying our winter this year will be colder and more snow, but I've yet to see it. Another week of 40's coming up.
The grass IS greener here right now.

Still in Duluth...
I am jinxing myself as i type this buuuut, the hell with it: Duluth has not dropped below zero once this season and there is hardly a dusting on the ground. We even had a 43 degree day last Sunday. On the plus side the Lester river outlet is still wide open for bait casting spoons out for Northerns and Lake trout. Its all about perspective.

I'm jealous too
The springs is only slated to get 3-6" from the weather report at noon, although they've been saying "blizzard-like conditions" a lot. I suppose we shall see what the night brings... Hopefully more snow. Drive carefully up there.

This thread is not fun for me this time. I am not even sure what day it is but I was in Perth, Western Australia yesterday and flew out at 11 PM Perth time, arrived 6 AM this AM and had/have a 9 hour lay-over. I am currently in the Sydney Airport. In 3-1/2 hours I leave to LAX for a short 14 hour flight and then I try to get home from LAX to DEN. I think I may be spending a lot of time in LAX.

C'mon out to Peyton! Hwy 24 was closed this AM and I rescheduled my flight for drill because I had 2 feet in my driveway!
Shoveling is good PT though!

Sounds like the weather reporters here in Southern California. A forecast of possible light showers and we get "Storm Watch"!

I've shovelled 5 times since this morning - at least 24" without the drifts! 
Still waiting for a plow to clear out the street - last storm this size, it took 4 days to get off our block

Did you shovel in your usual uniform of shorts, sandals, and an aloha shirt (with vest, if it was cold enough)?
Take care, amigo, and pace yourself.
