I know there are so many worse things going on right now, but I am going stir-crazy from the long winter and the fact that it's going to snow AGAIN tomorrow and that it's not a pretty little dusting. We are expecting anywhere from 4" to 12" of new snow. On top of the still lingering 18" from last week. And the storm before that and the one before that. March is going to roar all the way through it - there's no lamb waiting to escort it out for us New Englanders. I want spring dang it! I want to go outside without 4 layers of clothing! I want green and yellow and pink and all the colors of new life. I am so over white. Sigh. I need to move.

Spring IS here. My bleeding hearts are sprouting and I saw robins for the first time. But this weekly nor’easter bullshit has GOT to go!

I’m not complaining. We finally got snow!
All the others missed us.

I complained about possibly getting this number 4 Nor’easter on a previous vent thread. Well the path has moved so we will not have to worry about it in my area. I am so sorry that all of you in it’s path will have to deal with another one. Although our ski areas are really loving this and are a bit sad about this one missing us. The problem with this snowpack is going to be if we suddenly get extended warm weather, flooding will be a potential issue. One that we have already dealt with a couple of times this winter in a lot of areas. Stay safe everyone in it’s path and just remember there is a light at the end of the tunnel...it is spring it has to end sometime.

No snow in the forecast for me (Central Ontario) but plenty still on the ground and -27 outside this morning. I just want above 0c weather at this point.

I am so tired of it. Next week our forecast (and yes, I realize it can change, but still) is showing some amount of snow for 5 days in a row. March is supposed to go out like a lamb. Where's my damn lamb??

I'm so done with this -- I'm so sick of the inside of my house. They're calling it the four'easter in the news here. We've gotten absolutely blasted by the previous three -- 12-24 inches each time. Four inches sounds practically sissy, but one forecast was showing 14-18" in my area. I'd better stock up on wine.

We're supposed to get some snow Thursday and Friday. No biggie, it's not October you know it won't last. We have tons of snow left. There are snow drifts on the sides of the roads in spots 8-12 feet high were it drifts bad. Usually the tulips bloom for Mother's Day, that's spring for us. It was +3C/37F and no sun today and I was out in a heavy sweater it was so warm. When it sun is out it's downright hot! People in flip flops and capris. We still have a long ways to go, could have cold and snow a few more times.

Yes! It’s really hard when Sunday and Monday felt like Spring, and my bulbs started coming up. And now, I am sitting here watching the white stuff and my kids will probably be out of school again tomorrow. If not, at least, a late start. We are expecting anywhere from 6 to 18 inches depending on the weather model. I am really not looking forward to the wind.

Not that it’s funny. I’m so done. At this rate I’ll have no PTO left for the summer.

We are getting a good 12" tonight in the Philly area. I am so done with this as well. I got tired of being cooped up in the house this year and bundle up and take long walks. But I can't do this with all this snow on the paths. And for the next week it looks like it will not get out of the 40's so it won't even melt.

I don't think anyone has any idea. I give up.

You know you're in trouble when the predictions range from 6 inches to 15 inches and you're just praying for 6 inches of snow.
Come on - I'm so sick of this!

I live on the MA/NH border and we are all just so sick of this Winter crap! DONE!
I don't know what we're actually supposed to get. The forecasters are all over the place. All I know is there will be snowflakes, and I will soon lose my mind. I'm actually a big fan of colder weather. I don't even usually wear a Winter coat, but this year has done me in. It just won't end.

I’m not complaining. We finally got snow! All the others missed us. We've had two snowfalls this winter. They both lasted about 2-3 days. The city to the north of us (about 60 miles) has had about 6 or 7 storms. Most of our winter days have been sunny. We are supposed to be in the 70's in two days. I live in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Crazy, but appreciated.

I'm on the MD-DE line in northern MD and the National Weather Service is saying 16 inches tomorrow on top of the half inch of slushy ice we got today. Schools are already closed for tomorrow.
