Had people on the waiting list most of last year. The six weeks we were on hold last year sure made a mess to of the schedule. Still have people on the list.

Good for you! A ton of rain, then snow? No thanks!

We got snow! 4-6" at least. The roads were passable last night, but I stayed around 40, no need to spin out. I was glad they have rumble strips in the center and on both sides, kept me in the lane as I couldn't see much.

We're actually getting to the point I could tolerate some snow. Going to be a pretty dry spring up here.

I don't mind the snow, it looks pretty. It's the cold I can do without. I'm also glad I have a car that can get through the snow, I hate driving the truck in winter, being from Montana and not a rust bucket I hardly drive it on salt.

No, the snow's not really so bad, but I really prefer it doesn't arrive with 50 mph winds - those drifts get difficult to deal with.

Cut down those trees and it'll keep on blowing past you. Of course the front of the house would be a wedge of snow until spring.

I'm glad I got the '98 running before the snow, but I forgot to top off the power steering fluid before I took it out of the garage. Scared myself I had bigger issues, then I realized I needed fluid. What a pain in the ass to steer! I do so love power steering, I don't have that arm strength or stubbornness to live without it on the truck. Parked next to the garage, which made me think about adding on to store a vehicle out of the elements. Just a cheap covering is all. Maybe make the sides removable for warmer weather.

No snow down here. Just that blasted mud that doesn't want to go away. More rain coming tonight and tomorrow.

It was 0 this morning! 3 when I started the car at 6:30, went down to 0 ten miles south. But it did come back up into the teens, and that felt ok. Then the wind killed any comfort remaining.

So you are still having a warm winter in the far north.

Oh yeah, only had 3 sub-zero nights so far, and might not get above zero today - we'll have to wait and see, but it won't be too far in the hole at any rate. No -20's or -30's yet.

If it doesn't will there be people complaining about the bugs next summer?
Snowed this afternoon more coming in the morning is the word.

Bugs are bad if we have a lot of rain in spring, or a ton of snow still on the ground in April, down in southern Minnesota. Up near @Polara_500 I don't think they lose the snow til June.
Maybe not that late, but later than here.I've heard that we will have a warm winter, and I'm all for it.

Snowed most of the day, some wind, it's starting to drift some. I haven't heard any offical totals, but I don't think we got 4"

Had to open my mouth, didn't I? Only got up to +1 today, headed for -19 tonight.
