Yeah. So I'm done with winter.

Is anyone else tired of winter already? We've got 6 more weeks left and my area is already 20" over the normal snowfall for the whole season. We've got 6 more weeks of winter. It's nice and balmy outside right now too :rollin:.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Yeah it's sucked, plain and simple.  Seems every time we get a little dusting of snow, the road crews have been slathering on more salt than normal this year as well.  It is -3 here right now...but at least we northerners are more used to winter.  I heard from a cousin of mine who moved to Louisiana and they're calling for snow down there this week.  His statement was "I moved south to get away from this ."  lol...I can only imagine what 1'' of snow in the south would do for travel.  They're just not prepared for that sort of thing.

I am just counting the days until I go to Orlando in two weeks.  Going there for 1 week for family vacation and then a week later am going back for some training.  That will be a nice relief!

Yeah, I have some friends that live in Anchorage and I have been going up there every September for a number of years, so I look at the weather. They're having an unusually warm winter this year. It's 10 at my house and 37 in Anchorage right now.

I helped move my son, daughter in-law and two grandkids to Utah in November. I skyped with them on Sunday evening and they had 33 degress. Here in PA we have been in the single digits regularly. It SUCKS! I am ready for Spring.

Ever since the first time I was deployed to the desert some 15 years ago I've been an hot weather person since.  Not just warm; HOT.  I'll take 90 plus all day every day.  I've always been able to work in it, play in it; whatever. 

I say it every year.  I could go the rest of my life without ever experiencing snow ever again.  This year is especially bad. 

The only upside is hope fully the ant colony in the backyard that always flares up in April will be stymied.  The last real cold winter I had while living in this house kept them away for the following warm/hot.

Yeah, it's sucked. My main issue has been fighting with the MegaSquirt cold start settings on the Volvo. Been a bear. At least I've had plenty of chances to mess with things! :hick:

Two days ago, here, it was a high of 56 degrees F, 12 hours later, with windchill, it was -25 F.

Surreal. I hate the heat, but for some reason, I bet I won't bitch as much this year. I got shade trees and fans. Bring it on.
