What A Winter

Americans definitely have had a winter to tell the grand-kids about, years

from now. The National Weather Service says winter ended on Friday night, as far as record-keeping goes.  And this has been La Crosse’s coldest winter in almost 40 years.  Here are a few numbers showing that this has been a rough season in La Crosse.  In a typical five-day period this winter, we probably had snow falling on three days, and temps went below zero two or three times.  Biggest snowfall of the winter was 6 and a half inches in mid-January.  But, we pretty much haven’t seen grass on the lawn since the first week of December.
