Dear, dear Lori;
Seems the weather is completely bassakwards this year. I'm from Salt Lake. Remember the 2002 Olympics? Tons of snow. One event had to be canceled for a day because it was snowing so hard. I watched the Foo Fighters in long johns, snow pants, wool turtleneck that went down to my ass, underneath was a warm vest and a turtleneck. On top I had a coat that an entire herd of geese had given their lives for, lined goat hair knee boots, wool hat and two pair of gloves. Froze that ass off! Had to undress at the bar after.
November starts the snow and it does not end until May. People ski then golf on the same day.
This year we had one teeny storm in November and haven't had squat since. Being a desert state we really need it too. I haven't had the chance to wear my new down coat, a hoodie is sometimes too warm.
It's nuts! Your side of the states must be suffering from global "warming". ;)
Keep shoveling. I hate when the place where your putting the snow is too high to throw! Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. We've had some horrendous spring floods too.
I'm feeling your pain.
