Looks like we will be shoveling more Global Warming this year than ever.

El Niño  means a warm spring-ish winter here in the PacNW... Might not snow much at all... Which is too damn bad for my Canuck friends in BC and Alberta... They need the snow pack badly.

Maybe we could box some up and send it to them...UPS doesn't heat the trucks.

I just watched the local weather. If the predictions are accurate, we won't have much snow.

I made a killing in the late 60's shoveling snow. We had 3 years of massive snows.   It was great. Sadly Kids today could never do what we did.

Don't eat the yellow snow Nanoock  It was a hundred degrees below zero...

If it is 100 degrees below zero, the snow won't get yellow. It freezes before it gets there. (Go ahead, ask me how I know! ---and it was only -60 out)

I think we are due for a few years of cold winters.  I remember 1977 vividly.  We had over 30 days in the northeast where the temps did not rise up to 32 F for the high.  I froze my *ss off doing consulting work in New Jersey in a chemical plant.

I haven't seen snow for awhile here in Georgia.  We just bought a home in the mountains of North Carolina, and I can see a snow fall that keeps us house bound for a week or so.  I can see it happening easily.

I have only seen one big snow in my life, 1993.... two feet of snow, in Alabama... yes Alabama. Yes 24" of snow, threw this area in total ciaos.

Shoot. Two feet, all at once, is nothing to sneeze at. It wouldn't shut us down... but it'd be a bother...

I’d throw on a coat. Maybe some gloves.

HAHA!

Two feet all at once, my plow truck has a problem getting started... Gotta throw it around a bit just to clear enough to operate from... once you get enough cleared out to get a line going, well then it ain't so bad... but getting a hole big enough to push from is a chore, for sure. But doable. Three feet all at once, well then you get out the tractor and figure to spend a whole day at it.

It was never cold in Winter before.  Oh, the horror!

[Elderberry]

Here in South-East Texas El-Nino means wet. Years back during an El-Nino, my property on the banks of the Trinity River was flooded from Thanksgiving to March. I boated in once and my lot had 3 feet of water on it.

[Sighlass]

It has been as dry as I can remember it in a long time here in my part of the South (Bama).... I have took to my taking my nightly leaks outside near the shrubbery just cause it needs the water. Ok, I have always done that, but seriously, I think this year the bush is actually thanking me if I listen real hard.

Silly migrants.  Hope you don't freeze to death.

So far, here in Hochulstan... a dusting. The snow band is tracking further north than originally forecast. Looks like the Southtowns are going to be right in the crosshairs for a while... but it may, and probably will, drift back down to where I'm at.

Nothing really out of the ordinary in North Dakota, except it warmed up enough for the last snow to melt before we got the current coating.
