We've had a few warm days around here for this time of year but, other than that it seems about average.

It's close to 55 here today and foggy as hell!
Just got done unclogging all my gutters, we had water trickling into the basement from our window wells that were starting to fill up because of the damm gutters being clogged.
I cleaned all this crap out just before winter hit too, I don't know where the twigs, seeds and the rest of the laves are coming from since the trees are bare?!?!??!
Wore my motorcycle rain gear because it was down pouring too. A couple days ago it was minus 5 degrees, and to top it all off we have had over 35" of snow so far this year and its all melting now!
I can't wait to see what happens over the next four months of "WINTER" LOL

Weird weather, hell yess!!
