Default Is Spring really 'just around the corner?'

I'm having a hard time believing it...

What did everyone else wake up to this morning...it was -23 degrees this morning in VT...it's warmed up though...zero out there now

Pais,
I had -7 here in the Catskills. Not as windy today as yesterday.
I've had enough of winter too.
This weekend it should be a bit warmer.

Some snow from a clipper system, not that bad though, right now it is about 11 outside. Monday night was brutal lows around 5, but the wind was blowing to around 50 mph with wind chills in the minus 30 to 40 range. But my siberian husky spent the whole night outside and enjoyed the hell out of it. He was laying in the front yard like he was at the beach. Should get a break from this cold by this weekend with temps in the upper 40's.

I woke up to about four inches of snow and awful snow-related traffic.

I'm done with this, I miss Portland and its one day of snow per year.

mid sixties here. a chilly breeze keeps a jacket on you tho.
we went to dumas this morning, picked up pieces of houses today. it's the third week that a group has gone there (we're with boy scouts) to help clean up, and there's still so much on the ground! depressing in a way, but uplifting in another--destruction, but now rebuilding and pitching in. amazing to see nothing but a mess in some spots, and an untouched house right next door.
