We might get about 10 cm late Monday into Tuesday.

In March, the snow usually melts much quicker.

Usually does, and the leaves pops out too, it makes me happy to see green. However they say that we may get an additional 10-20 cm next week :P I miss summer/late spring. I want to try my gear...

The grackles are back, but mostly flying over, not shiny in the sun like this one.

But the real sign of spring is another blizzard warning is up for tonight, with as much as ten inches by the end of tomorrow. 8O
