Snow in April?

I hear ya Vamp.
You got our storm from Sat/Sun.

I have washed two vehicles three time each in the last 10 days.

Everytime I wash a vehicle,It snows un-suspectedly that evening or the next day.

We will still get more snow yet.

I remember a few years ago on June 1st,we had a TREE Killer snow storm that caused 4 million dollars damage.

Snow in April?

I had to brush snow off of my truck on Saturday here in the Buffalo NY area. I went to a farm equiptment auction by the Pa border and there was a coating with flakes falling throught the day. It is warming up now though.

Snow in April?

I myself am not complaining that much. (i'm only 16). I got 3 days out of school and actually had a chance to put my skis on my four-wheeler that I bought before winter and we never got snow! So I finally got to use them so I was happy. side note:i would advise buying skis for your 4-wheeler if its 2 wheel drive because it rides like a snowmobile in the snow .

Yeah, I can relate. I came out of the house this morning and had remove about a dozen Hibiscus blossoms from the hood of my truck. Us folks in Hawaii have our own brand of h*ll to deal with. :-)
