Okay, which local jumped the gun and put away their snow shovels?

We've talked about this – no good will come of it. Get them back out before we're all buried in snow, and the calendar reverts to February.

I think the only remedy is to go out and buy a 5kg bag of salt, and a new pair of mitts.

@ottaross I didn't put it away...but I won't be operating it either...fairly neutral contribution. But I did take the ski box off the car before May 31st, perhaps that is the problem.

Whew, it's really snowing and blowing out there!

@johnefrancis sounds dicey. Could be a contributing factor.

@ottaross @johnefrancis
Wasn't me. I made an appointment to switch from winter tires to all-seasons, but appt is in late April.

@bjb @johnefrancis sounds safe

[mbtrueb@climatejustice.social]

@ottaross it is just ‘blowing’ here in IL. No snow. No rain.

[ottaross@mastodon.social]

@MBtrueb maybe it'll blow something in overnight?

@ottaross If they're good enough for Bernie...

[ottaross@mastodon.social]

@LaChasseuse ha! I'm a big proponent of mittens as superior to gloves. They're so much warmer. Bernie got it right.

[ottaross@mastodon.social]

Grudgingly looked out the window and faced the overnight snow.

Yep, we've crossed the sweep/shovel threshold. And it's still coming down.
