So far so good up here in central Ahia - the little bit of snow from last weekend - the first of the season - has pretty much melted away. High today in the low 50s! If only our whole winter up here could stay that way..........wishful thinking!!

Chicago area has only had 1.5 inches of snow since Dec. 1. Usually by Jan. 7 Chicago has had 15 or more inches of snow. Maybe the weather god(s) are giving Chicago a break after the past 4 winters of 50+ inches of snow - especially the Groundhog Day blizzard of Feb. 2, 2011 and it's 22 inches of snow. Praying for a continued mild winter for Chicago and eastern Iowa so my 81 year old Dad doesn't have to use his snowblower very much.
