I guess its true when they say be careful what you ask for...
The last couple of years we didn't get any snow and this year its a different story.
It snowed all weekend and now the temps have dropped to the Teens and were expecting to get another storm this weekend into the week.
I missed the snow the last few years but I think its safe to say I'm over it now. I spent about 3 hours shoveling snow this weekend just to make it out my drive way to get errands done lol.
How many more days until spring?

A dusting is nice but once it needs shoveling I'm a big "nope"

I agree with you 100%. I'm already tired of snow and dread the thought of more coming this weekend. Guess I'll have to make sure I have my refrigerator and pantry stocked with everything I'll need just in case they're right. From what I've seen we could get a significant amount here. Hope not but....

@BACONSTRIPSXXX 105F is very unusual for us really. We might get one or two days in the low 100s but 105 is a bit excessive.

56 days, according to LindaOH! In NC, we had no snow for almost three years before last year. This year, we've had a couple of light snowfalls, but we're looking at a big ice storm this weekend. We're doing everything we can think of to get ready.

We had snow Sunday and Monday but it didn't amount to anything. We're supposed to see several more days of snowfall this week. I'm really hoping it doesn't amount to anything, either.
I HAD to get out and drive in the 13F temps yesterday and watched snow falling on the car but melting as soon as it touched the pavement. 
I hope you're working from home again this week. Good luck!

We (in NC) got a little bit of snow, sleet, and ice. We usually don't get a lot of snow. They are calling for more snow here next weekend.

Spare a thought for me
I had to dig out our drive every year between 1999 and 2015.
We lived in the countryside.
See by 2016 I was so scared of the winter that we moved to where we are now
