Winter is coming!

So we're now into the first week of March. I think we've had as much snow in the last ten days as we've had in the whole of the winter to date, and the temperature is currently at -16; I was out for the evening last night, and was very well bundled up with my coat, gloves, hat and scarf, and was still worried for my extremeties. This is what winter is all about!

On the other hand.... By tomorrow afternoon, the temperature they're predicting is 11, which means that over the course of a day and a half, the temperature will have shifted by 27 degrees, which I think is pretty darned impressive. It seems that the current lows are because we're getting the tail end of the system that sent all the tornadoes across the Southern US, so now that system's dying away, we're getting warmer weather again. There's still enough snow that I suspect even a day that that's warm won't be enough to clear it fully, but there should be more than enough slush to go around....
