An early spring according to the groundhog.

[tomboudreau]

wheeee! hopefully after this weekend we start to warm up some. highs will struggle into the lower to middle teen's and lows will be around zero. i will not be surprised if we dont see below zero lows at least once over the next 4 or 5 days.

Too bad you do not live further west in the state. Some of my family members in Charlotte recieved 2-4" of snow yesterday morning.

Yeah but the Winter's here in North Carolina haven't been bad since the Super Storm of 93 and the Carolina Crusher in 2000. Most of the Winter's we have had have been in the 40's and 50's for Highs and Dry Weather. I don't think here in Hickory,Nc we have had a good winter since 2000. This is the first time i have seen snow here in about 2 1/2 year's.

Portastorm,

Did you see your shadow?

[Coredesat]

I saw my shadow when I woke up, so perhaps that's what's influencing the weather.

I'm only kidding.

[baygirl_1]

Well, my shadow was frozen last time I saw it!
(I'd love to see my shadow instead of these depressing gray clouds that won't go away!)

[Lindaloo]

Amen to that! In Theodore yesterday, the sun peeked out for about 3 minutes.

[southerngale]

I haven't gotten any snow, but I have been cold for weeks! It sure has felt like winter down here.

Theodore?! We were there, too! We arrived back in town just in time for the parade down there. I don't know, though --- we must've missed that 3 minutes of sun!

[Stephanie]

Well, we're definately paying for the warm weather we had in December and early January. Tomorrow and Tuesday will be struggling to get into the 20's.

I hope Phil is right....

It was about 4. My boss said "OOOHHH there is the sun"

[brunota2003]

Is he postive that it was the sun and not someones light on the clouds? Did he pull out that field guide to the sun and make sure it wasnt maybe a meteor?

[tomboudreau]

Maybe Phil got it all mixed up with all the warm air we had been having the first half of winter...and now the second half of winter will be staying like this?
