93° and 91° Monday and yesterday. It's supposed to cool off to mid 80s today and the rest of the week.

Rubbing it in is one thing. Posting it twice?!

The National Weather Service reported 26.5 inches had fallen at the Greater Rochester International Airport

I was able to repair the cable and get the driveway finished. Will have to go back and clear some drifting today. Looks like I will be spending a good part of the weekend with the roof rake.

Wowww, that's really some snowfall! I think 19" at one time was the most we ever got and that just about crippled the city. We've only had 21" total all winter. But up north in some areas they have had 21 feet so far.

Some of the mountaintops around Lake Tahoe have gotten over 53 feet of snow this winter.

The +1 is running in gorgeous weather in Charlottesville this morning. Should be done in about 45 minutes. Lots of rain here and there yesterday but we needed it. Spring has finally arrived after a fitful start. We had our winter a couple of weeks ago. Sorry to see our friends up in the Boston area and north are having snow again. Boo...

We've had, rain, sleet, and snow. In our area, the snow didn't stick. I've been out and about since 10:00 and it's just miserable, and so "un-springlike". We got through March, I have hopes for improvement in April. Historically speaking though, April isn't that great around here either.

instead of the white slushy mess we got yesterday and friday,
my heart is set on gentle rolling fairways of finely mowed, lush, green turf with a warm breeze at my back.
