this is ridiculous. it's 60 degrees F here today.
i nicked this from another thread.
will this be the year of no winter??
or the winter of our discontent?

this is a disaster so far.





in Northeast states like Maine and New Hampshire, natural snow has either melted or been washed away, as ski resort bosses count the cost of a barren December. The two states are among a number which are normally completely buried at this time of year, but the distinctly brown Christmas has left the outlook bleak for winter recreation enthusiasts.


let it snow!

and in contrast to last post...these people got a total of 18 FEET of snow!
i will now stop bitching about no snow here in New England.





The small Alaska fishing town of Cordova is used to dealing with excessive snow - but not like this.

Residents have turned to the state to help them dig out of massive snow levels that have collapsed roofs, triggered avalanches and even covered doors, trapping some people in their homes.

A statewide emergency was declared on Friday following three weeks of relentless snow, which overwhelmed local crews working around the clock and filled snow dump sites.

I wasn't aware of that. I can only think of three.

Wintry Mess Advances North
Thursday - Snow will accumulate several inches over northern New England and northern Upstate New York. Heaviest accumulations - 6 to 10 inches - will be found in the Adirondacks, Green and White Mountains. Look for snowy road conditions on Interstates 87, 91 and 93. Of course this is all very good news for the ski resorts and their business.

Late Thu Night/Friday - The Northeast prepares for another shot of storminess as a winter storm from the Midwest advances to the east on Thursday night. A strong upper level impulse will eject out of the southern Appalachians and slingshot northeast into New England during Friday. It will bring a renewed bout of rain and snow for the region.
