This remains a brutal stretch of weather. Bitterly cold and snow showers simply keep on showing up. And they will, off and on for a while. Looking way ahead, we could actually see a 30 degree day coming our way next week. But first we have to get through this weather mess. More lake effect snow combined with a clipper system streaming through  over the lake water absolutely guarantees we’ll be seeing a few more inches of snow. Personally, I’m good and sick of shoveling and I don’t even have to do all that much. Any is too much in my book.

As unhappy as I am with our weather, can’t imagine how folks must feel in the deep south – as south as some beaches of Florida – about the cold and snow they got from Winter Storm Enzo. This is a lifetime event for people and they likely won’t be seeing anything like this again. The system is working it’s way to the coast and on out, but for the time being, things are shut down due to snow and ice in place that shouldn’t be affected by any of it. Hoping everyone stays safe. At least they know they’ll be out of it all in a while. We, on the other hand, are stuck with this for some time to come. And we definitely will be seeing more of it over time.  Spring seems SO far away this winter.
