We tried...

Less than one month ago we said it was time to stop whining about the weather.  Unfortunately, that was only wishful thinking, and a promise we just can't keep.  Yes, only midway through the month of November, and one week prior to Thanksgiving, the first snowfall of the season arrived.
Unusual to see snow before the leaves have finished falling.

To add insult to injury, prior to the storm, we made the mistake of believing the weather prognosticators, who had said the snow would change over to rain by the afternoon--it did not.  With a major event that evening at the Club, it was a scramble to get the snow plow ready, and deal with the Slurpee-like white stuff.

As of  November 16, the course has already received close to six inches of precipitation for the month, and over 60 inches year to date!

The day after this storm, which crippled much of the Mid-Atlantic region, one of the national meteorologists stated that, "The storm out-performed our forecast."  Hmm, that is one way of putting it...

If you were a fan of Happy Days,  you might be able to guess the answer to this:  What do meteorologists and Fonzie have in common?    Click here for the answer!
