I think upstate New York has even more snow, so it's not there either.

and the NM fire season is early and well underway. The Rio Grande will likely be dry by May.

Ordinarily, I'd love this weather, it's one of the reasons I left Boston, but it's usually punctuated by a day or rain or snow here and there.

Not this year. This year is wacky....and dangerous.
