Yeah Michael, I hear you. It was 70 something degrees here today. We haven't really had a winter so far. I keep waiting for it to get here, but nothing so far. However, Feb and Mar are usually the coldest months here in sunny Okla so we'll see what happens. Oh yeah, our new house is almost finished and we will be moving in the next couple of weeks. That should make the weather turn to crap for sure. |

I was going to go for a swim today but the water was too cold at 78?. (then he wakes up) Wait, there was no swimming, I was too busy digging out about 30 feet of snow. Sorry fellas, I've got no sympathy for you. Hope Marion chimes in, he'll have even less sympathy. You're a bunch a sissies.

Well up here in the great white (er..... green) north, On the west coast that is, we haven't seen snow since 2 weeks before Christmas, but we did have 28 days of solid rain. That sucked, but today was wonderful, see 
I use to live in northern Alberta where we had snow like Mario for 4 months of the year. I don't miss it one little bit. |

AH! That's one of the best parts about Northern California: less than an hour from 7000' and the lifts! Was snowboarding in 2 feet of fresh last Thursday 
I'll stop rubbing now - bad form... I guess there's a down side: Homes start at $500,000

I think Arkansas is on the "Winter do not call list" this year too, it was close to 70 today. I would like to have one cold blast at least and one snow fall. We desperately need the rainfall and a little chill before the 6 months of humidity season sets in. Ron |

This is our warmest winter in years. Coldest yet was -26 instead of the ussual -40 or cloder and the snow banks are only5' high. Going to cost our region millions as the snow roads arn't in to get to the winter wood supplies for th forestry industry and our northern communities will have to fly in all supplies (including heating fuel.) But I don't miss the cold. Only - 2 today. |

Winter? No such thing here I know you guys in the deep snow won't believe it but I actually miss the snow. Haven't seen it in about 15 years. The seasons don't change a lot in Florida.

Well, here at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, we've still got snow on the ground, which is somewhat rare. Usually its here one day and gone the next, but this one has stuck around about a week and a half. Record snowfalls in the mountains, 3rd snowiest ski season on record....I'm lovin' it. Many, many powder days and Vail is sweet every day. Keep it coming, mama natural... -j. |

Except for the altitude problems trying to snowboard at 12,000'! Man thats up there! |

We're also having exceptionally warm weather here in Minnesota (above freezing almost every day lately). It's causing all kinds of problems for the St. Paul Winter Carnival, which starts in a few days. |

But I'm looking forward to spring, more days in my un-insulated garage-shop, to start on #2. After moving to the inland NW, I learned that the San Francisco Bay area, where I came from, doesn't even HAVE seasons. |

Seems like I heard recently that some areas of Europe (or maybe Russia) are getting slammed with some truely Arctic weather conditions. I guess it all evens out in the long run. |

Ron, i guess that in both our case, we shouldn't blink too long, otherwise, a couple of seasons will go by!
