I agree. I've seen winters with a lot of snowstorms before, but the big difference is that shortly after the storm, we'd get a stretch of days in the low 40's so all of the snow would melt away. This year, once the snow has been dumped, the temperatures plummet. Just about a week or so ago I stepped outside and the thermometer said "-3". It was painfully cold. I kind of wish spring would hurry up and get here, but before it does I need to get some sandbags and other methods of keeping the water that always comes up in my basement from spreading too far. (It leaches up through the concrete into the center of the basement. So I figure I'll just try and contain it in that one area and let the drainage system around the exterior of the basement keep that part dry. I'll also need to trek through the 4+ feet of snow to the other side of my house where the drainage pipe exits and make sure that it's free to pump the water out. Ugggh).

You know that we've had enough snow when people's kids are saying that they're sick of all the snow.
