Summer seems a distant memory

[Hosakawa Tito]

I'd love to send some snow your way, Ser. Some for Sjakihata too.

Actually Red, after I retire Texas is on my list of places to move to. Maybe the Houston area.

If we have a quick and prolonged warm spell, this much snow will end up in a lot of basements, mine included. However, it hasn't gotton above 20F for two weeks, mostly single digits and with windchills near -20 on many of them, the damn winds have been howling at 20 to 40 mph with few calm spells. The weather pattern doesn't look to change much. The beginning of winter the cold Canadian air had stayed far north of where I live, it was up to 50F on some days in January, with lots of rain. Now that cold air has dropped southward and all that rain has turned to snow. Thankfully, Lake Erie has frozen over so the lake-effect snow has stopped. Lake Ontario never freezes over so those to the south south-east are going to get hammered.

Greg, we push the piles back as far as possible, the lawn's going to be a mess. Some municipalities have to truck the stuff to the boonies out of town.
