I know right.....I'm in Maine watching the snow pile up and I figure about 60 days or so. I get to drive the snowblower....that's almost as fun.

What part of Pa do you live in? I have 70's and nothing but blue skies! lol. I know what your going through. It actually wasn't that bad out on Monday I think it was upper 40's, so I took the scoot to work. It was a bit chilly on the ride home, think it was around 34! It wasn't all that bad the last few days temp wise, most of the snow around me melted. But they are watching a storm that might hit Friday, we'll see. Come on spring!

Man, I can feel ya! We've had right at 30"s of snow since before Christmas and sub zero temps. Haven't seen the yard or my house roof in well over a month. Salt and brine all over the streets and sloppy. We're getting some temp help, lower 30's last couple of days. I always get to ride at different times during the winter but it's not looking too good this year.

I live in Huntingdon co . on top of a mountain . My yard ohas been covered with snow since the end of November . The warmest temp we've seen here sine is 40 . But even with that temperature, I work 3rd shift . And I can't take advantage of it .
