6 weeks? Well worth it. I've got 6 games until my hockey playoffs.

Winter aint over until the cup is hoisted, in my opinion.

does it matter here in buffalo, they could say he didn't see his shadow we still have winter till april or may.
Besides how do they know the groundhog has seen his shadow, did the groundhog tell the people. Last time i checked Groundhogs where not speaking english, this isn't Narnia, and humans hadn't learned groundhog.

your guys weather is weird. you dont get as warm as us in the summer, but we get colder in the winter. but, yeah, usually by mid-late february, were done with snow for the most part. usually days get up to the upper 30s, lower 40s by then... we usually get our large snow falls in december and january.

hell, my peach tree already has buds. but thats not abnormal, those thing bud in the winter anyways.

WNY and that area has terrible weather, I think the Lakes effect it a bit different since most of the weather in that area comes across the lakes and such. More moisture in the air for that area than in Michigan.

Plus with the Appalachian mountains being the border it effects it also.

we get lake effect in michigan, cause we have lake michigan. however, buffalo gets downright awful lake effect, dropping several feet at a time in some cases. we dont get it to that effect, just 4-12 inches. anything more then 6 inches isnt very often. but we will get 3 days of 4-8 inches, so it adds up.

however, the lower peninsula gets much more severe weather in the warmer months, usually, then western new york. areas in southern michigan have a tornado ratio on par with areas of tornado alley. however, now that i am on the eastern side of the state, we dont get lake effect here much. very rare. we got 3 inches today, a decent day of snow. but it might snow for 4 more days, so well get maybe a foot by the time its over.
