I think ours is over 90% gone!! I've been shoveling and spreading the snow from our areas where it got high from snowblowing this season.

The temps are "supposed" to be in lower 40's this week and we are in a flood watch as we are supposed to get heavy rain tomorrow afternoon.

Hopefully that will take care of most of what is left but then the yard will be muddy-or not as the ground is still pretty much frozen (I tried to remove my plant protecters and cannot due to the stakes being stuck yet)


Dad chipped away a good part of the ice in back of my garden shed and can open the door enough to get in now.

In some places, we can see grass, but others where the sun doesn't directly hit it, we have maybe 6 inches or so. The snowbanks are still kind of high too. They're saying temps are going to be high this week as well, and maybe reaching 60 on Tuesday!

It snowed here Friday, enough that we had to shovel
but it didnt last long, we're about the same here too... the only snow left is from a snow storm we had a week before St Patty's Day. The only snow left is that of snow mounds created by snow blowing, shoveling and plowing. For the most part it is staying above freezing here now, and aside from Wednesday when it's supposed to drop down in the 20's I think we're gonna be good.

At least our pool is unthawed now. For awhile... it was looking like a giant ice rink back there.

I know spring is 'calendorically' here... but I cant wait for it officially.

Getting cabin fever here... need to see some daffodils soon!

Not much any more. We still have the piles, areas where it had drifted or where there is a lot of shade, but for the most part it is 95% gone. It hit 50 degrees (f) today, so that helped too. It's finally starting to feel like spring

Scattered patches here and there - as well as the ugly, dirty, plowed piles of snow. Not the prettiest time of the year. But I did see a robin today!!

We still have too much snow! It snowed again yesterday and our roads and highways were hazardous and advisories were being issued to stay off the highways.

I left my livingroom window open and I woke up freezing this morning. It was 60 degrees in my apartment. It must have gotten pretty cold outside. Our parking lot in the back is a sheet of ice. I've lost count as to how many cars have been stuck today.

Ours was washed away with lots of rain a week ago. There still is some snow in the forecast for this coming week, but no accumulation.

Bulbs are pushing out of the ground, buds are on the bushes and I've had snow drops and now crocuses out.

Oh you poor people still dealing with snow!!! But then I guess it is the end of March...I guess it's been a while since I really lived in the North now.

DH mowed the lawn yesterday for the first time and did the insect treatments for under the house too. We've got lots of trees in bloom and things too. It's been good, happy weather! I hope it makes it to all of you still melting soon!

None, just like we started with!
But I guess I cant complain about the 70-80* weather the last week!

Well there's not too much left here. But I still have a huge pile in my backyard. There's a huge oak tree to the east and another one to the west. Each is at least 175 feet tall so needless to say, the backyard doesn't see a lot of sun.

All of ours is gone - except for some spots in the ditches where its dirty, nasty snow. Although some parts of MN are to get snow (like Natalie said) & I'm sure we'll get some more. Winter is really never 'over' here in Minnesota
