Hype is not what it's hyped to be

Case in point, last Sunday's snowstorm I blogged about  prior to it's arrival. 18 – 24 inches in my region was the forecast. Ended up being maybe 8 inches. Not complaining I did snowblow the driveway twice and cleaned up other areas on that second pass. Happening on a Sunday worked out well also. Things stayed very cold with single digits early in the week afterwards until Thursday when the temps zoomed up to the 40 and 50s range and heavy rains dominated the day. Any fresh snow from earlier was washed completely away with some of the previously fallen snow. Since then temps have been rather seasonal in the teens. May get a dusting overnight with the possibility of snow-rain mid week. Waiting to see spring on the horizon.
