Title: Remember The Great Old Winters
Post by: Henry on January 26, 2004, 08:07:28 AM

Hi All,

Strangely enough, I haven't heard anyone talking about the winters we used to have.  I awoke this morning, and like any typical Vermonter, immediately checked my thermometer to see this:

As you can see, the temperature trend has been pretty steady.  Fortunately we have plenty of snow on the ground, which maybe, just maybe will help the frost level.  

In regards to our Ski Areas, well, nothing really seems to please them.  This year they don't have a lack of snow, but it has been too cold.  One of these years they are going to say, "We've had a great year."

Have a great day,
Henry

What hurts is that I had to turn the AC down because it was to cold in the office.

Its only -13 this morning and it looks like it is going to be above 0 for the rest of the week plus it doesn't look like we will be getting the snow they are getting South of us either.  Things are really looking up.  Even my brother in law was rubbing it in by phone last night telling me he had his air conditioner on and telling me what the temperature was in Winterhaven, Fl.

Have a great day,
 :)

Does anyone remember when we went below freezing in Fairfax ?
We've sure been here a long time.

I am going to guess it will go above freezing on February 16th.
Anyone else got a guess ???
Let's have a thawing pool !
