Wow. It was like that in the UK just at the beginning of december.

My car hated the snow. German engineering? As soon as the temperature was below zero for more than a couple of days, and it got fedup of doing is iceburg impression it would wake me up at 3am/4am with it's alarm. "I'M COLD, I'M COLD, I'M COLD, MAKE MY ENGINE GO OR I WILL GRUMP!"

I ran the engine till the snow on the roof melted and it seemed to cheer up. I couldn't get it off the drive it would just spin the wheels but the sound of the stereo seemed to make it happy. Damn car.

I just got my car unburied about an hour ago. There's not much room to park on the road because of all the snow but hopefully some idiot doesn't hit my car.

late january we still had about 7 inches on the ground
early feb. we got another 13 inches
the last few days of 40+ weather have melted all the snow away

then last night we get hit with 9 inches of heavy mixed snow, the very bottom is a wet-n-heavy slushy mess 8)

i had video of the 20 inches we had on the ground but youtube and google are being buttheads

Well it's nice and deep right now and guess who has to work a national holiday because her boss is a workaholic?

most of our snow melted away and the last couple days we got hit with about half an inch of ice and then 4 inches more of snow. :( I really want spring to be here again so I can sit out on the porch, cook out, and have bon fires again. That and maybe with some warm weather my neck can stop being sore.
