Haven't you heard? It's CLIMATE CHANGE! That way they can add snowto the narrative
First Saturday after Thanksgiving we got a foot. Set records for one day total in November, one day total in a season, and earliest record snowfall. I reckon we're close to 20" so far. Temperature drops to -10 tonight. And it's only December 13

31 degrees here, at the present moment, steady wind out of the north at 18mph, overcast.
I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

I remember when we used to get snow by Thanksgiving and it last all winter. We had around 3" last evening and night and was 7 degrees this morning and windchill of 0.

I remember my Dad bragging that (years ago) he was able to (moldboard) plow on Thanksgiving Day because the ground wasn't froze. Now, it seems very rare (including this year) to have the ground froze by Thanksgiving.

I am right on the Quebec / Ontario (5 miles to Quebec) border in New York. We have about 15" (+/-) of snow and it is 18 degrees here right now.

Global warming? Just think how cold it would be without it!!!

I think yesterday’s high was 14 with a windchill of 5.
Right after Thanksgiving I think we had 5-6” of snow but most of it has disappeared.

Son had a buildout last year of snow plows for skid loaders and utility tractors to point he had 80+ plows setting in finished parts to assemble them to sell and ship 
 So this year holes to clear his inventory - https://www.minnesotaimplement.com/snow-removal

Plenty of snow here. Like Steve said 4 good snows before Christmas. More than we have had in the last 3 years. Sure am glad I don't have any livestock to care for. I can remember spending whole days as a young man on a dairy farm trying to water cows , pigs and chickens. As soon as you fixed one thing another problem would pop up.
I messed up this year and didn't have the back blade hooked up. The D17 nf was still hooked up to the rotary mower. The first snow I couldn't get it to start. Battery was low and wouldn't take a charge. Couldn't find my propane fired salamander. Man I really dropped the ball this year. Got a new battery, found the propane heater at the hunting cabin. I draped a tarp over 1/2 of the tractor and put the salamander heater on the other side and warm it up. No gas leaks and I can put my hand in between tractor and heater. Tractor fired up after 15 minutes. Got the blad on and went to town the last 2 snows . Not a good start to the winter but next 2 weeks look promising.
3 degrees out today, glad I got my outside stuff done yesterday. Stay warm guys.
Wonder if someone snuck into Shameless's place and fired up the machine.

This weather should shut them up about GW until somebody tries to blame GW for this.

yes, 3 weekends in a row with 4" - 8" snow each. First came with wind, cold near blizzard conditions. Second was colder but not windy, Third was windy / cold -17 in morning got to 12 this afternoon. Have to fix snowblower spout this week, quit turning. 
 But weather is to be upper 30's to mid 40's up to Xmas. I hope so. I've a couple projects to get back to in shop. 
 Hope everyone has a Merry Xmas and happy New Year.
