The Winter of 2014
Honestly, what a great way to start off the new year! Snow, Snow and..........you guessed it, more SNOW. I'm sitting here in Buffalo NY, watching those little white things trickle from the clouds, a constant reminder of the "Polar Vortex" this winter endured. But to much people's dismay (almost everyone i talk to), I actually like the snow. For me, there's snowboarding, sledding, pond hockey, and a lot more (I'll stop for the sake of boring you) and much as i would like to tell those people to move somewhere else, I can't help but agree with them this time around.
I was in Florida for the past 6 days and it's amazing to think that i was wearing shorts and a tank top 24 hours ago. Residing in the Rochester/Buffalo area i can safely assume that i've had my fair share of snow storms these past years (Sorry, but a foot of snow is NOTHING), and i was looking at the annual snow accumulations for 2014 which had Buffalo at 121 inches and Rochester at 102 inches. Definitely a far stretch from the record of 199 but a lot of snow indeed.
As spring nears by (thank Celestia) there's been this sudden influx of news articles claiming that this is the worst winter ever. Personally i can say that it is definitely up there due to the fact i had to walk a quarter mile to class in blizzard like conditions. The main gripe i had with this winter was that the snow wasn't spaced out. It came in storms which led to a lot of problems for everyone.
I'm ready for that winter wrap up.
P.S. thanks for reading this first blog, i didn't know what to write about and just had that journalists itch to write! More interesting stuff is on the way...
