I dont know, we've had plenty of cold but..

This is the 2nd winter in a row here in MN with very little snow...

Its not good for the economy or the ecosystem. A lot of businesses are hurting. This is on top of a fall that had little to no precipitation either. 

The Drought word is going to make its way into forecasts again if we're not out doing some plowing soon. 

Hell, New Orleans has gotten more snow this season than Mpls.

Once the Shrine game hits, it all starts moving really fast. Senior Bowl, combine, owners meeting, free agency, the draft and then OTAs. The NFL doesn't allow other sports to even breathe.

Yeah it’s crazy. My 1 year old septic system froze yesterday because there’s no snow on the ground. Have to pump it once a month till the lakes thaw out

Speaking of drought, it’s a thing. All the farms now have irrigation. Our aquifers will even be depleted here eventually.  I miss the good old days of family farms.

Best time of the year to have a drought is winter! Let it rain in April.
