WHAT's going on????

The weather forecasters have been way off the last 2 days and definitely not in our favor. At midnight on Friday when we turned the TV off, we were still under a winter storm warning with 5-8 inches of snow to be on the ground Saturday. The snow was to start by 4 am they said and was to be at its heaviest by 7:30 am, so after hearing this, I cancelled the 1 hour trip south, we had planned Saturday morning, for a meeting about a scholarship program, my daughter is involved with. Instead we get up Saturday and by 7:30 am the first flakes were just starting and the snow warning had went away and thru out the course of the day we only got a couple of inches. Mind you we were not complaining about it as we were very happy that it looked like we had missed the brunt of this storm.

Then Saturday night again, we listened to the news and weather and at 11:30 pm ,the weather person said we were only to get a dusting more of snow overnight, due to lake effect snow wrap around, but nothing to be worried about. Instead we wake up to several inches of new snow! So my better half is out plowing now. He says we have at least 7- 8 inches out there all ready and we are still getting bursts of snow falling off and on. We read one report this morning that said we will end up with a total of 9 inches today.

Come on Spring.... March is only 6 days away.
