I lived in Massachusetts and Wisconsin for awhile. Miserable weather after the beauty of the fresh snow turns to sludgy mud. Ugh!

but nothing that will stick. That is about all we ever get except for those who live in the mountain areas. The worst snowfall we have had in many years was the blizzard of 1993. Right now, it is windy and very cold. At 4 p.m., it is 39 degrees by my outdoor thermometer, but the wind chill makes it feel much colder. I don't mind it because I love winter and can bundle up outside.
