Winter of 2014.

 We live in this southeast corner of VA where the winters are supposed to be mild; it gets cold, temperatures drop to 20’s in the night but little or no precipitation,may be an occasional snow of may be an inch or 2. But this year, we have had an awful winter with several snows leading to an accumulations of 8-9 ” at times.The schools have been cancelled for 7 days in the past month & half .We are now almost to the end of March & the weather today is ” cloudy with snow showers .”I am sitting here thinking will this ever end,will the warm temperatures ever come our way ? Some say, since we have had a rough winter, we will have a rough summer too . I personally will take the 100 degree hot summer versus the 20 degree cold any time. It even snowed as south as Texas & Florida this year, so there really was no escape.We have had periods of warm weather followed by longer periods of cold weather . I just hope that the mother nature makes its mind up soon ....Not much happening on this Tuesday so here is my rambling !
