Man what I`d do for some 50deg rainy weather.
Ive now got 10 foot high snow banks along my drive way. Had to get the neighbor to come with his big tractor loader to clean things up.
At the point now if we get  any more snow, there just isn`t any where to put it. 
Last time we had a real winter like this was 2015.

I was talking to my Dad yesterday, he said they got a good dump of snow on Wednesday and again over the weekend. It’s been fairly cold too, so at least the snow is light. He’s 94 and still out shoveling snow, he has to get to the wood piles to keep the wood stove going.  He’s got a tractor with a blower so he can open up the yard and laneway to get out. He used to keep the 4.5 mile section of private road open, but hopefully someone else can do that.

This morning was horrible here. -25F with -40F wind chill. My wife's vehicle started and got her off to work but took me 2 hours to get mine running. I'm ready for Spring now.

Overnight lows getting down into the teens later this week in Atlanta. So much for our early start to spring.

Still snowing here, hasn`t stopped since this morning.
Local contractor just announced they`re pulling their plows.
No end in sight of this crap. Lake Huron is hurling everything she`s got.
Winters like this were exciting when I was younger; not so much any more.

I hear you Brother.

In North Carolina it is projected for my area to get up to five inches,(125mm) of snow or ice.

 Another beauty day in this winter wonder land, like, I wonder if this is ever going to stop.
Been snow hard again for the last 4 hours. Seems to be no end in sight.
I fear I`ll have to build pontoons around my house so it dosn`t drown this spring LOL

 The cedar forest across the road from me just looks like a mountain of snow. Wouldn`t want to venture in there, bump a tree and you`d be buried alive.

We got no January thaw this yr. And so far February has been relentless.
Still snowing hard and another foot or more in the driveway. All surrounding roads have been closed again....  and yet cars are still zooming by??
