Six more weeks of snow
You with the fat furry cheeks
Say it isn't so
That was a haiku I posted on HeliumNetwork.com a few years ago. My sentiments regarding winter haven't changed.
I've been done with winter for about two months now. Alas, again this morning, here in good old Connecticut, USA, I awaken to more snow, more sub-freezing temps, with more of the same, or worse, continuing for days.
To compound the situation, that infamous, cute but miserable, little weather predictor, Punxsutawney Phil, has predicted at least another six weeks of all this misery.
Ugh. Groan.

I hope he's wrong. The ground hog in my local area did predict an early spring, so I'm going with him!

It looks like a sure bet. No big warm up in sight.

You just had to figure there would be six more winter weeks.

I'm so sorry its still so cold up that way, down here it's dry and relatively warm in comparison. Then again I'm in the desert and usually the coldest of our temps is in the wee hours of the morning like around 5 or so.

You really shouldn't hold a rodent responsible for the six more weeks of winter. The calendar clearly lets us know that spring doesn't arrive until approximately March 21.....
Springlike weather would be, oh so welcome....it's a frigid -11°C here today. 0°F
