I'm sick of this!

Today is May 2nd.
Yes, dammit, it's May; "that lusty month of May" (I had to listen to Camelot too many times while growing up).
It is supposed to be summer... you know... flip-flops, t-shirts and shorts...... girls in flip-flops, t-shirts and shorts.... that kind of thing. The motorcycle is ready.... we won't even talk about that, it will just engender more anger.
So it snowed on the 25th of April, again on the 29th and then again last night with more forecast for the rest of the week. Some parts of Minnesota got 15 inches!!!!
The TV weatherman was really cheerful this morning predicting all that white stuff. I want to take that weatherman outside and before he can say "Global Warming" again, I want to stick his head in the snowbank.
It's almost as bad as a Canadian Police Chase

Quote from hereAccumulating snow continues. Moderate to occasional heavy snow will continue through much of Thursday across portions of Southeastern Minnesota into west central Wisconsin. The heavy snow band, only approximately 30 to 40 miles in width, continues to shift slightly to the east, making for a sharp cutoff in snow totals across the area. The Heaviest totals will accumulate near and just east of a line from Albert Lea to Owatonna to Hastings in Minnesota to Balsam Lake in Wisconsin, where 4 to 7 additional inches of snowfall can be expected. Roads may become slushy or snow covered when the heaviest snow is falling. In addition. The weight of the heavy wet snow on tree limbs and power lines could cause power outages. A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect for much of West Central Wisconsin until 7 pm. Also, winter weather advisories and warning remains in effect for a portion of South Central Minnesota through 1 pm.
Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 1 pm CDT this afternoon.

Quote from hereMINNEAPOLIS - The calendar has flipped to May, but winter made a hard-hitting appearance in southeastern Minnesota where residents are digging out from well over a foot of snow.
The National Weather Service says the 15.5 inch total registered in Owatonna could be the heaviest May snowfall in Minnesota's recorded history. The previous high snow total was a foot near Leonard, in Clearwater County, Minn. on May 3, 1954. Tower, Minn. saw 10 inches on May 3, 1950.
The snow is nearly as heavy in parts of western Wisconsin, with Baldwin reporting 14.7 inches.
