We missed a white Christmas this year because rain melted the snow two days before Christmas. I woke up this morning to this wintry scene. Not a lot, but some needed moisture.
I haven’t heard of too many places getting normal snow this year. All of our ski areas are open, but they don’t have the base depth that is normal for early January.A month or so ago we had an inch or two of snow. It's long gone. Instead we are getting rain. Rain, fog & cold temps every day. Maybe some snow in Feb or March.
I will be picking raspberries in August.I don't think you can say "White Christmas" or "White New Year" anymore. Some might say it's racially motivated.
Winter came early down here. We hit a brutally cold 45 around the first part of December. It's now 37 and my heater is blasting! Looks like I'm staying in today. I might venture out later. I got a new long-sleeve shirt for Christmas.
Hope to be picking strawberries in late February.
And yet we’re probably only a days drive apart.Everything is dried up by August down here.![]()
