Well, Alaska, Greenland and Central Asia is unnormally warm this year while Canada, US, Europe and especially Russia is much colder than it use to be.
Got up, about 5-6 inches of the good stuff on the ground. With more coming down. Could not get out the kitchen door as the snow was deep against it. So went out front door with our dog (she is like small! chihuahua..plus a Texas bred dog, so she still after a year not taken kindly to snow, especially when as high or higher than she is) and had to do a bit of shoveling. So shovels the walk from the front door to the back door, clear out a lane out into the grass for our dog to go. Liked to snapped my back! So, like an hour later, I am sitting here when I hear a noise and look out the window. Here comes the person who clears out the walkways and parking lot. Snowblower! Of course, that meant all the hard work I had done was really for naught. Oh, probably shoveled more snow this morning than I have seen altogether in all my years in Texas! Or I should say, in South Texas.
