I wouldn't mind a bit of snow here. We escaped  again.  All of Britain froze but here only the hills took a bit of snow. I have seen no snow this year at all.  Honestly this country gets more like California every day! Well Washington state really because it rains all the time.

The last time is snowed properly was in 1982. The still talk about that.

What is "snow"?? It was pretty darn cold here today. The temp never got above 60 degrees and the wind went up to 25 MPH. BRRRRRR.

No snow in Burlington?  I remember once having to scrape ice off my car's windscreen when I was there,  in May!

All I heard were stories of ice fishing in Lake Champlain and heaps of snow all Winter. Guess it's practically warm there this year, relatively speaking of course.

I did enjoy my stay there though, nice place Vermont.
