LOL, we just don't seem to get much snow anymore, not in New Hampshire. Twenty years ago we'd get 10 and 12 inch snow falls and up to about 4 to 5 feet a year. So far, this year's been a dud.

We got like two 1-inch "storms" and this weekend we got about 5 inches.

It was pretty sad that I pulled out the snow thrower for the last 1-inch, but by golly, I'm gonna use my toys! =p

4 or 5"

Just be happy there's not a minus sign in front of that! I'm at -9 right now, woke up to -16 this morning.

Oh trust me I am!! ?

I remember those days well back in MA where it was -15 without the wind chill and barely getting into single digits for the high. What was worse was having to get up early and go out in it then get to the job site and unload everything. After moving to AZ (I always knew I'd never stay there for ever) I realized I don't like either extreme so we're hoping this place is a happy medium for us. A few days/weeks of extreme cold/heat are much easier to deal with than months of it.

You seemed to have moved to the new snow belt. Our winters here in Wisconsin are nothing like they use to be. The central US gets more and bigger storms. This Arctic Vortex will only last a few days and we will be back around freezing by the weekend. We use to have snow that stayed by mid-November and several feet on the ground by now. Right now the only thing we have is a little where I shoveled the driveway and sidewalk. I look out and want to rake my lawn. We use to get stretches of sub-zero weather that lasted for weeks, three days is nothing. Farmers actually want snow to protect the hay fields from freezing.

At least we don't get many tornados, or any wildfires and mud slides. Few if any days with three numbers in the temperature. Also we only have one poisonous snake, and not many of them. That's why we call this God's country. Hope California doesn't figure it out.

PS, just sitting here watching a couple squirrels at our corn feeder. The cold isn't bothering them.

They say maybe 2-5 inches. I hope so! This is a blizzard for us? So exciting!

Doesn’t qualify for “Rangers in the snow” unless it’s out from underneath that carport. Should be posted in the “Rangers near the snow” thread ?
