Things Everyone In The Northland Does Before An April Snow Storm
Son of a... Here we are in mid April, once again teased by a few warm days and thawed snow. We thought maybe winter was over, and then we get hit with this forecast for a major snow event. Although we aren't strangers to April snow, it stings every year. Here's a few things we do in The Northland.

Whoever it is that put your snowblower away for the year, it's your fault we are getting this snow. You know you are supposed to wait until June to put it away. Only then are we safe.

I'm a big fan of snow in the winter. IN THE WINTER. April is not the winter. Enough is enough. We can't do anything with it now anyway and all it does is make things muddier. So go ahead and complain. Let it out. It's allowable.
