At one of my ex-wife's Christmas party about 40 years ago, I told her that i would not be retiring in MA due to the winters. . . I got an ear full the next day . . . married a more reasonable wife the second time, and we are heading to TV asap!
Here in western MA it rained out all day with heavy winds and all but about 1 inch of the foot of beautiful snow pack melted. Around 7:30 PM the temperature began to plummet and the snow began to fly, we got about 6 inches of snow in the next 45 minutes and then it stopped. It’s now down to 7 degrees and dropping fast. The temperature isn’t forecasted to get above freezing again until who the F cares, we will be in the Villages for the rest of the winter right after what will be a white Christmas. Merry Christmas to all!
