Winter is back

[BrewCrewForever]

One year ago today it was a high of 63 in Milwaukee.

I wish it was one year ago today.

 

I measured my front yard's snow and it was 14 inches deep.

Back yard was a victim of drifting, etc, and showed around 18 inches on average. One spot near the garage was 30 inches deep.

Nice Jamie, very funny. Nice day out today, a lot of snow already melting away. Thank God.

I had about 14 inches in Muskego. Man, that was some heavy snow to shovel. (Yes, I'm one of those idiots who shovelled all 95 inches by hand this year) Then I had to roof rake some of the 5 foot drifts off of the west side of my house. Welcome to spring. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif

 

I grew up in western Montana (near Missoula) and winters weren't too bad. We didn't get a whole lot of snow. Yeah, summers don't get real warm, but overall it wasn't too bad. And no sales tax. But I think the wildfires and boredom would keep me from moving back there.

Totally bizarre.....an hour ago, I was out in the sunshine getting the remnants of Friday's snow off the driveway and now I look out the window and it's snowing real hard (west side of Madison).

[PeaveyFury]

Yeah, definitely snowing big-time in Madison.

[trwi7]

Snowing really hard in Hartland right now, too.

[brettac1]

No snow here, but it's supposed to get to 11 degrees tonight.

 

Spring = myth.

Madison 2007-2008 Snowfall Exceeds 100 Inches!

 

Sometime between 4:00 and 7:00 PM today. Now I'm done. Spring (by which I mean sustained springlike weather) can start any time.

[jason21nl]

lets celebrate by making snow angles.

Aw, you left out the best part

 

"...YET ANOTHER MAJOR WINTER STORM TO IMPACT SOUTHERN WISCONSIN"

[hawing]

I said the other day that I've had enough of winter. Do I need to say it louder?

[BrewCrewForever]

I can't believe this. More snow, and we still can't get days in the 50's on a consistent basis. I'm to the point where I just want to scream and pout like a little kid. Why can't winter just go away and let spring come out and play.

[owbc]

If it is 60 and sunny for Opening Day, all will be forgiven.

[pitchleague]

at this rate, that Cubs-Brewers opening day is going to be wiped off the schedule.

[trwi7]

If it is 60 and sunny for Opening Day, all will be forgiven.

 

Well right now they're showing a high of 43 on Monday with showers, Tuesday a high of 50 with a few showers (this would be a makeup day if the opener got cancelled), 45 and partly cloudy on Wednesday and 42 with rain and snow showers on Thursday.

Just genius scheduling by MLB I mean the upper midwest doesn't get any bad weather in early April so lets play outside instead of in the dome.

I don't know why that scrolling deal is happening to my post, and I don't know how to fix it.

Yuku's ability to render preformatted text took a dump just before the weekend. I should say "Yuku's inability" because it went from barely acceptable to wacko. Making matters worse, it does different things on different boards.

 

If you wish to paste that particular weather forecast, hit the HTML button (just to the left of "Spellcheck") and remove any

 and 

tags. You should be OK.

[jason21nl]

I really really hope that its not raining for the game on the 2nd. I would hate to drive down there for it to get rained out. I LOVE THE DOME!

[owbc]

I looked ahead and I'll issue the first opening day forecast as partly cloudy with a chance of showers, highs in the mid to upper 40's.

 

Definitely no major warm up anytime in the near future.

[honuswagner21]

Weatherman, I am curious to know your thoughts concerning yet the latest impending doom heading towards southern Wisconsin for Thursday. I am hearing anywhere from 3 inches to 8. Can we hope for a rain/snow mix or is this just going to be another pain for us?

[BrewCrewForever]

Im now hearing only 1-3 inches from the Milwaukee and surrounding area?
