Default I'm declaring March as psyco month

In a span of 3 weeks this month I have seen the following, in the order of occurance;

-10 below zero
72 above for several days
All snow melted, 'cept shaded piles/drifts
8 inches of snow yesterday
Snowmobiles out playing.

It's been a gravy winter this year, so no complaints. I'm pulling the GS off of life support next month. Can't drive it just yet, but can post about it.

Kind of sounds like Oklahoma this winter, 3 inches of snow with it all melting by 2pm the following day. Then 70's by the weekend.

This is Wisconsin after all! My hole life I can remember drastic changes in weather here. Last fall I mowed the lawn and had to use the snow blower the following morning.

What part are you from? I assume close to Janesville (where I am) since the storm that came threw the other day was a narrow band in the SW.

Yes, March was a bad month. There were 2 days that I couldn't drive my C6.

Sounds like over here. Took the Vette out several times the last few weeks, today woke up to about ten inches of that white ****....

Looks like it will take awhile for it to melt again.

Sounds awful. Thankfully no snow in our forecast, just sunny and warm

...and I'm not even in Florida. Hoping for some more top off days soon.

The drivers seat of my Vette hasn't had an *** sit in it since last Nov. Apparently I'm the only one in this thread who can say that.

But in a few weeks it's off to Bowling Green to play on motosportspark track.

Same here in MN. Luckily I got some miles on before the 8 " of that white stuff fell. Today the battery tender went on. Keep the faith. The weekend looks to be in the 50's.

September is the best month in the Midwest for Vette owners, nice warm temps and little rain.

We never get hurricanes here ever. Just throwing that out there. .

........started spring break here last Friday and it rained three days straight........been 70* + since Monday which gave me time to work on my custom exhaust.

NATURE is the only perfect thing. Beautiful, indiscriminate, unforgiving........perfect!

We even had sleet/Ice for a few days followed by sunny warm temps. Then more snow came.

Yes march was a crazy month. We had more days with gray skies then I can ever remember.

Not normal for Texas.

It was 85F yesterday afternoon, perfect for taking the roof panel off for the ride home.

I live in the mid-west too. We may never get hurricanes here....but the weather STINKS !!!! Just thought I'd throw that out there. I'd take Naples Fla. anyday. If I can ever afford it i'll be Fla. bound for sure.

It has been a tale of two weather patterns. Extreme conditions east and dry and no snow west. Our snow pack in the Oregon Cascades is around 14% of normal. Most of our ski facilities didn't open this year.
