Snow in Western PA has been below normal.  However, Winter isn't going to give us a break as its been colder than average.  Woke up this morning to -8.  Might even be colder at the end of the week.

I do miss sort of miss the big snows when I lived up just North of Worcester.  At least I could cross country ski every year for most of the Winter.  Not always the case here.

We'll take snow, and we will take cold, but WE  HATE  WIND!!!

Wind sucks the heat out of everything faster, it messes with the air inlets in the barns, it relocates the snow in the way constantly, and it makes climbing bins very uncomfortable and dangerous.  Did I forget to mention trying to control a 700 square foot aluminum sail on the highway with a cross wind?

Speaking of Boston .
As they clean up the streets I wonder how many "Smart" cars are being scooped up and dumped in the river with no one even noticing ?  ;D

Still no snow here.  They are talking we may get an inch or so tonight, but I will believe it when I see it - We are bouncing between lows of -10 and highs of single digits above zero.

Fun part is that the wind continues, and climbing bins in a 20 to 35 mph wind is a pure joy.  Fifteen to twenty feet in the air, in an open field, on a slippery ladder, 26 times.  Actually only 25 times.  Of the three bins at our home barn two bins are close enough together that I can stand on one ladder and lean over to the other bin roof.
