Winter and the snow - hows it been for you?
For me its just waaay too much of it everywhere. I have never digged so much snow as this year to clear a path in my yard for both walking and the cars, i have never cleaned the roof so many times. I mean really, prolly digged at least a ton of snow...
Luckly i haven`t heard in the news that someone have died this year. Lots of injuries, frostbites, damaged property etc.
Just a few fun/cool pics and few not so fun to show how it is here:

hi! it's been good to me, because I really like it, just like all other seasons, because every season is unique and I like them all. well, here in y area the winter is still here, there is still some snow, the temperature is about zero, but I feel great, because i really like snow and winter.
well, some people don't really like to dig the snow in front of their houses or garages, maybe because the are in hurry or maybe just because they don't like the cold, i am not sure, but there are really not many who can proudly say that they love it :)
as I see you also don't like it because it is everywhere you live even over the cars :), but don't you think that sometimes is better so than living in places where there is no snow?

Hello!
Well during the winter i really can`t wait for the summer to come. No idea how would it be to live somewhere where usually there is no snow at all and temperature barely reaches 0 degrees.
Its always like that - people who don`t get any snow dream about the snow and that they want it too, but those who got way too much of it dreams about sunny and warm places. :)

I like winter and the snow , because it is very few of the opportunity to see snow in the South where i live in .But sometime much snow will affect traffic,and a lot of problems caused by them. While the snow is very romantic,many people can not move everywhere easily.So like it but also hate it .

hello!
Well, if you don`t get much snow it sounds really cool, but when you get it a lot and the same problems over and over again each year, you start to hate it. Unless you are huge fan of winter sports ofc.

Here in Pa we got so much snow, at one point we had over 20 inches of snow. it was bad, trees were down we had no electricity for about a week or so, damaged property, took a while to dig my car out of the snow. I would get so cold from having to walk in the snow an my feet getting so wet. glad spring is coming though.

I think I have had enough of winter and snow this year. Now that we have had quite a warm up, the snow is melting away. That is leaving me with a swampy yard and mud. I don't know which is worse, the snow or the mud.

Well for a while, this was a pretty harsh winter. Maybe not the absolute harshest winter that I have ever endured, but perhaps up there in the top five. For about a month, it was absolutely unbearable and I dreaded the rare times I had to go outside. It was an absolute pain, in fact up until a week ago when things started clearing up.
I am really glad about how the absolute worst of winter is over. The weather is finally getting nice. There were a couple of bright and sunny days this week. The snow has completely melted off the ground. Unfortunately it was replaced by the rain and some dismal weather on that end. Still the worst conditions appear to be over but I'll breath easier once we get to the end of March and into April.

Indeed, getting sunier for me as well. But still people and the army in some regions are starting to prepare for the upcoming floods. So still lots of stuff to happen.
The real harsh weather started in december, a week before the christmass, cold (up to -25C), lots of snoving etc. Was like that until february. Also heard in the news once that there hasn`t been this much snow in like a hundred years orso.

This has been one of the hardest hit winters Florida has seen in over twenty years. A few places even saw snow twice. Snow is a rare almost non-existent thing in the "sunshine" state. With spring around the corner the weather is still cool, but nothing like it was this time last year. We have gotten a lot of rain. In fact for the last two days the ground has been getting it.
I just hope this isn't a prelude to a horrific hurricaine season.

I think we've had the worst winter for the best part of 30 years or so. Freezing cold, heavy snow, torrential rain, more snow, more rain, lowest temperatures for years, personally I'll be glad to see the back of the cold wet weather and welcome in some sunshine.

I must admit that we have there also extraordinary cold and snowy winter. I am actually happy about it, because we haven't had a proper winter for like 3-4 years now. It was always too warm and often during the last winters, snow came down in the end of January. That's not a real winter. But that winter we have here now is nearly perfect. However, I've had enough, I had a chance to enjoy all the pleasures of proper winter but now I think it's time for winter to leave. I want warm sun and green grass now.

We had more snow than in 15 years here, but still it wasn't much. We had 4 snows and the inches added up to 8 altogether. The 5" snow was fun for awhile. I actually saw some pretty good-sized snowmen this year.

Its been great :) Usually here in england we get next to no snow and just bleak and damp winters but not this year. More snow than ive ever seen before in our country. I went sledding almost everyday, we had days off college. It was during exam period however but who cares, i still enjoyed it.
