In addition to The Constitution State and the Nutmeg State, Connecticut is also known as The Land of Steady Habits. What is all too bleeping steady is the snowfall we are getting. So far in Danbury, we've had more than 54 inches of snow in January alone. When the Dec. 26 snowfall of 22 inches is added, we've had 76 inches this winter which is about 150% of an average winter's accumulation. Winter has more than 7 weeks on the calendar and spring snow is not unheard off. Unless the weather pattern changes, we will wind up with the snowiest winter on record, more than the 120 inches that fell in 1995-96.

The good news is that we're headed to our home in Buttonwood on February 19 and will be there for 5 weeks.
