When I Was Young….

You probably remember the stories, right? When I was a kid we had to walk two miles to school, uphill both ways, in snow that was up to my waist! The snowdrifts were over the house and if you let the dog out, you wouldn’t find him again until the snow melted in April.

It’s starting to look like an old fashioned winter out there as most folks sit with 8-10 inches of snow in their yard…one of the snowiest starts to December in a long time. Commuters may be a bit frazzled, but snow lovers are rejoicing. A white Christmas looks to be a sure thing this year with no major thaws in sight.

We’ll catch a bitty break from the arctic air this week as temperatures climb into the upper teens and low 20’s… still below average, which is about 27 degrees this time of year, but better than highs in the single digits! A few nuisance snows are also possible this week, but no big snowstorms or show stopping blizzards in sight. So breathe deep, slow down and enjoy the holiday season!
