Happy New Year to you too EB.
I am hoping the weather either changes very quickly, or stays like this until March/April.
I am hearing that this winter is very comparable to 1999-2000. Which i remember as very little snow, mild and we had an early spring, that unfortunately was riddled with lots of severe weather. I wouldn't mind an early spring, even if it meant severe weather. But what i don't want is a very late winter that decides to show up in February and last all the way into May. ugh.
