Happy Ground Hog Day 2009 !

Happy Groundhog Day! The news is in, Punxsutawney Phil managed to see his shadow, even though it was cloudy. Six more weeks of winter. Personally, I think there are only six (or seven) more weeks until spring!

"Wicked" Winter Weather

It seems that only in New Hampshire (or New England) would you see on your local news (WMUR) station "Wicked Winter Weather". I always get a "look" when I am traveling outside the area and use "wicked" in my vocabulary. Of course we use it here in NH as a positive adjective, not just a negative as in the Wicked Witch of the West.

It is 12:15 pm right now and we only have a winter snow warning right now. From what I'm hearing it will probably turn into a snow emergency before long. It's expected to fall at a rate of 1 1/2 to 2 inches per hour. YIKES!!! I don't know about you, but I think the ice and snow should be finished for this winter by Groundhog Day. Don't quite think it will work out that way though.
