Snow, Melt, Repeat

When does it end?  This morning there is an article about folks up north who are iced in on Neebish Island and cannot use the ferry to get out.  This morning:

I know there is climate change now and always will be.  To be expected in a world 4 billion years old.  But global warming?  I am beginning to think it only pertains to summers.  I do consider myself lucky as states to the south of me seem to have been hit harder with snow than we have.  But we must be over 50 inches by now.  That's about 30 inches more than I would like.  Hopefully, we should see some warmer weather in a few days.

  1. I know, it’s April and I would like spring...not instant summer. We went to Collingwood on the weekend which was really nice. We have not been away, just the 2 of us since 2012 and that was just an overnight stay. Anyway, it was snowing so hard when we were walking, I looked like a snowman and I have to say...it was pretty. When we driver home, there were trees covered in ice that just glittered in the sun...it was magical to me. Your picture..sorry, looks pretty:)

  2. We've had the snow reoccur very regularly this year as well, but hopefully last week was the last. We definitely need warmer weather and so do all the lambs that have already been born.
    Have a great day Denise.

  5. I would be so sick of it by now. We barely had ANY this year (which does NOT bode well for our summer and lawns) and I was sick of it. I don't think there was any on the ground save three or four times. Climate change indeed.

  6. I wish some of that excess snow can be transported to warmer places like ours... Jokes apart, we have a prolonged summer and the few days of cold weather is simply too short...

    1. I'll probably be complaining of the heat if we get temps in the 90's F this year.
