Woke up today to freezing rain, schools closed, everything is covered in ice, took 20 minutes to scrape the car.

Environment Canada are saying we can expect 6 more weeks of winter weather in the Northeast. Murphy's Law, the one spring we don't have a trip planned to the Islands, and boy we're paying for it. :cry:

It is a beautiful day here. A nice break after 2 days of downpour. We got 11 inches. Our immediate area is rather high and hilly, but I really feel for the folks down near the rivers. :cry:
Probably not going to our hometown, STL, for Easter because of flooding between here and there. Son2 lives in Cape Girardeau, they got over 13 inches of rain. :shock: Hope not to get anymore for a while.

Yep -

I'm here with Marcia - 45 degrees and pretty sunny yesterday for the start of Spring and now lots and lots of snow.....! I can only hope that it melts soon. And, I pray for all those in the midst of the horrible flooding.

Yep, we are going to have a "White Easter". It's snowing like crazy and we are supposed to get 6-10 inches of snow. I'm going to lose it if so called spring doesn't come soon :evil: .

Still Spring-like in Coral Bay. We saw a couple of apparently pregnant Bananaquits!
