Snowmageddon: Upstate NY 2015


We are not suffering from any shortage of snow this year.  In fact we haven't had THIS much snow here since the 70's!!

We have approximately four feet on the ground...in spots...drifted to six feet.  

We REALLY hope we will be able to dig the RV out!  It is currently encased in a six foot drift and many, many tarps.  It generally takes us about a day to get it uncovered.  That's when we DON'T have any snow.  I heard on the news tonight that the snow at Niagara Falls isn't expected to melt until MAY!!  That makes me very nervous.  Oh, I hope we get some warm weather in March!  

We have been punished enough!!  



Do you see a theme here....see just how GREY it is around here???

Do you now understand why we have a need to head south to see some COLOR...some GREEN?



When we hit the state line for South Carolina, I stand up and CHEER for FLOWERS!!!  Palm Trees!!
Beaches!!



And then...there is this!  Are you kidding me...MINUS 26??  It is CRAZY Cold out there!!

Days like this...I wish the girls were litter box trained!!

And...we have another storm coming on Saturday.

Oh, Happy Day...NOT!

Please stop sending your miserable, cold weather to us here in Florida! Holy guacamole is it cold here this morning. You may not see pretty flowers when you hit Florida bcuz this morning most of them are frozen solid. Yuck!
Stay warm and safe furends.

Wow, Jeanne, I had no idea you got so much snow. It's certainly cold down here, 3 currently (with a wind chill at minus 16) but our little snowfall this week started melting that day so the roads are all clear. I posted a photo on FB yesterday of Niagara Falls. It was beautiful, and the water was still flowing, but it sure looked COLD! It's definitely winter! And, I do love a cold winter... but... will be very excited as it gets closer to SPRING!
Keep warm!
Hey... can you believe I'm at the blogs again? Must be some sort of record. haha

Mary said...

p.s. love that photo of you. xo You look happy! Or, maybe you were so frozen it just seemed that way. haha

Mary said...

Oh Jeanne, that's horrid!! I can not even imagine. Stay warm!!

Mitch and Molly said...

Wow - you girls really did get hammered with the snow and it's not over yet! Green grass and spring is going to look even better this year, right?!

I simply cannot fathom that much snow. You need to fly south for the winter. Y'all are welcome here. ☺

Mom says she doesn't know how you stand it. She doesn't miss those cold days in massachusetts at all from when she lived there, but she does miss a lot of other nice tings.

Hope the storm disappears.

Woos - Phantom, Ciara, and Lightning

Just like you, it's the color that I crave. I hope that you can get your RV out. Our camping van is in a similar state but we always get it out fairly easily. I hope that winter slows down for you and that you can head south!

OH. MY. GOD, Jeanne!!! I cannot believe how much SNOW you got!?!? WOW! It's cold here (VERY cold), but we haven't gotten much snow at all this winter. Yesterday and today is was in the minuses.

Stay warm and cozy this weekend, my friend. Lots of hot soups and stews!

X to you and the girlz

ann thompson said...

Yes I completely understand your need to head south. I wish that we could do the same. This winter has been dreadful and the cold is killing me. We've never had temperatures this low before and for so long. It was -24 again yesterday and that was the actual temperature not wind chill

harrispen said...

If I come down to help you dig out the RV will you take me with you? LOL! Please take me with you!!! I'm tired of this winter too.
