Oh Come On, More Snow !!

CrazyKittyLvr2 — Wed, 10 Feb 2021 23:25:36 GMT

Yeah, it is winter in NE PA and I expect snow. It is this constant every couple of days a few inches. 1 to 3" Tonight, more Saturday into Sunday and again Tuesday. I would rather have one doozy and get it out of the way. Of course, partly sun tomorrow and then cloudy, cloudy, rinse and repeat into the weekend.

It is downright depressing.

Mother Nature needs a Raid suppository for that bug she has.

Venting over, I'm gonna make a cup of tea and take my BP meds.

I don't like it very well, either. It's basically the same here. Few inches of snow every other day. And bitterly cold. I don't like the cloudy skies, but it would be even colder without them. They are predicting possible "double digit" below zero temps for the weekend.

We are in S. WI & got 8" of snow at the end of November. Then December and January were pretty good. Then we got 6+ " & then we got another 6" last week. Thank goodness for a dusting of snow on Sunday, Monday and again tomorrow into Friday. I am a fall & winter gal. I haven't seen this much snow since our dc were in grade school 40+ years ago. It's hard to see over the ❄❄❄ banks.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 I'm with you. After the 30"s last week, I'm tired of it too, but it just won't stop here either (east central Pa.). 1-3 tonight. At least they are saying nothing for tomorrow night now, then we get Sat. into Sun., then Tues. Running out of room to put it. Anyhow, good luck up your way shoveling out again.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 Yes I agree that it is downright depressing!...

Feb. is usually a bad month for me. I don't do well in the winter and this year is bleak. Can only really go out to the grocery store or doctor's. Can only see neighbors when we're out shoveling (oh fun!) snow!

I'm ready for spring! If it weren't for the pandemic I would at least have to look forward to going to Florida like I do at the end of each winter to visit mom.

Gee Legal Secy - we're not to blame - go talk to your neighbor - Mr Punxsutawney Phil. 6 more weeks was his prediction!

@fthunt Good ole Phil and I are in the same state but the overgrown rat is 8 counties away so not exactly neighbors.

They need to leave that furry pest in his burrow.

I was looking at the calendar today and trying to be positive. I mean ok....Feb. is almost half over, right? Extra daylight happens March 14th.

But I think everyone is so fed up with winter because of the pandemic. No shot yet for me or DH (we're on the list) dining out barely open (25%), can't ride our motorcyle or go camping or take a walk without worrying about falling (plus the cold!). Our excitement (other than not having to go to work anymore...yay!) is going to the grocery store or running other errands. I did go to Marshall's with my BFF the other day (we met there) and poked around a little but honestly, this mask thing is getting OLD.

Please don't shame me for expressing my feelings - I'm grateful as **** that I'm ok, but I'm starting to feel anxious - I am an active person and this being cooped up stinks!!

Ok, rant over

This kind of repetitive cycle of Nor'easters. Like every week or so. I don't think it'll be a lot of snow. But yeah...some. Supposed to be more snow on Saturday & Tuesday too if I recall. I don't like it because of hard getting food and just cold & miserable. Almost every day, I'm checking the next 10 days forecast.

Here in Brooklyn, NY, we don't ever ask for "a doozy". We had 17" not even 2 weeks ago. A doozy lasts until April because it stays in cold mounds and never melts.

While I don't enjoy 1-3" every couple of days, it's manageable. A doozy simply cripples the city.

We haven't had trash pickup in 10 days because the sanitation dept is overtaken with snow removal. The streets are full of overflowing trash barrels and a jumble of recycling placed curbside. It's a real doozy of garbage mounds and snow mountains. Nothing anyone would wish for. Not around a dense neighborhood in a big city.

I don't even ask for spring delight. Just to get rid of what's here! Snow AND trash!

It's a strange winter for us here in the Salt Lake valley. No snow to speak of all winter, yet we've had major avalanches in the mountains. The southern part of the state received snow and it's usually warm down there. On this date in 2002 the winter olympics were held here in Utah and we had tons of snow.

Me Three!! I LOVE the Winter and the snow! It's been many years since we have had any real Winter weather here so this year has been very welcome. We don't really have anywhere to go so it's nice to hunker down inside in front of the fireplace, our favorite foods and drinks, and good movies! Not looking forward to warmer weather and the dreaded heat and humidity of summer...

@Deb213 Count me in the love snow/winter club!! Here in No.Va we have had nothing but nothing burgers for everyone of their "big storm" predictions. And now the stuff they were predicting for the weekend and next week, will just be rain with some "brief" snow showers maybe. We haven't been able to "buy" a snow storm for years. Every time I see a snowflake on my phone for the weather I was getting my hopes up, no more. I'm done. I'm just going to put my boots and coats away. I have worn my winter coat twice and boots 3 times, haven't needed a hat or gloves at all. My Uggs are now my UGHs lol.
