You've just beaten me to it Lawrence ,as I was about to write that here in

my part of the southeast not only has there been no lying snow this winter

but NONE falling either !

In all my 50 years of recording that has not happened before,


Are you considering just the meteorological winter (Dec, Jan, Feb) in that
statement? Or are you including November, too? Though the season for lying
snow will be virtually over come March there is still the chance of at least
some falling. I also remember that back in 2007 (could have been 2008) I had
4 inches of snow at the beginning of April. Of course it was all gone by
lunchtime...

Yes Scott ,winter as classified is Dec/Jan/Feb,to which I was referring ,as
I've mentioned in previous threads ,the Spring could yet give us some nasty
shocks,there are several years when March produces the most dramatic
snowstorms , oh yes don't forget May 17 1955 and June 21975 .as well .
