This is just what the people of Southern New England really need. I think my parents are ready to put a fork in all the nasty weather they have been having this winter and I can't blame them. The still have snow on the ground and the piles are finally beginning to shrink. Hopefully, the next 2 events don't bring much more to the snow ravaged region and their spring can start soon.
