Re: Spring Snow Storm Thurs 3/14/24

So pretty, I wished we'd get some of it in Albuquerque.   Instead, parts of the city are predicted to have 65-70mph winds with maybe a little rain.

I'd SO love to be in a winter snow storm with 65mph winds.  Sitting in the Cowboy den enjoying (no more than two) roasted marshmallows over the fire.  I love the dampened quiet when there is snow on the ground.  White as far as the eye can see Smiley Happy  We are supposed to have a lot of rain starting tonight.  Promises, promises.

That picture was WV after the blizzard of March 12-14, 1993.  My local area had 30" of snow.  It wasn't snowing when I went in to work the 11-7 shift Friday night, but I had snow up to my knees when I left work at 7 a.m. Saturday morning!   

WV is sunny and 70 right now.

Re: Spring Snow Storm Thurs 3/14/24

My sister and I used to be in the Cherry Blossom parade in DC in April and it always snowed! We didn't live there but also always had snow.

Now I am so sad not to have seen any snow at all.

To me that is a beautiful picture @rockygems123.

Winter with snow is my favorite season of all.

Thankfully, here in Chicago no snow and I think we're about 20 inches below our normal, thank goodness!  Do not miss the snow at all--pretty to look at but the reality not so nice!

I cannot believe it is 77 in Maryland now.

 

Our cherry blossoms are going to pop any minute.

All the schools and most all businesses are closed today. USPS and Amazon is not delivering today.  I can't remember the last time USPS stopped delivering b/c of a storm.

Re: Spring Snow Storm Thurs 3/14/24

Most of my life I really didn't like spring except for the trees and flowers. Because, and I know this sounds weird but you are expected to be all happy and yea it's spring whereas I was sad winter was leaving! And spring is all rainy and muddy. Not that this whole year hasn't been.

A few years ago I read there is also the opposite of seasonal affective disorder. Most have it in winter. But there are those odd ones who have it in the spring and summer. More tired  then too. Me! I feel most energy and alive in winter.

 

So to all those out there who feel the same, winter lovers unite!Woman LOL
