Lack of snow ruining my winter

Lack of snow in Buffalo is killing me. Since it is too cold for golf I want to do winter activities, except there is no snow!. No sledding, no ice rink (temps is high 30's). I did find an outdoor heated range but I miss doing the snow stuff with my 2 4yr olds. My grass is as green as it was last summer!

I think no snow in Buffalo in January is a sign of the apocalypse.

All our snow's melted too here in the 'Burgh, it's frustrating as I can't get out either, b/c of various reasons....

I suppose if you live in Buffalo, you've got to love snow. You get more than practically anywhere else in the country! But with how much you guys usually get, I'm surprised that you're wanting it to come back. Personally, I enjoy winters like this. Very little shoveling, no slippery roads, no -20* temperatures, etc. But the boys do enjoy going sled riding, which we only got to do once this year.

I'm sure you'll see some snow within the next month. You can have all of ours as well!

No snow and high 30's? I'd be playing golf if we had those conditions here!

We're having some unusual weather here in central NJ. No snow, temps ~50 degrees. I played golf the last two weekends. I know it won't last for long so I'm trying to get out at least once/week.

Sorry, but if you don't like it because there's no snow I can't feel sorry for ya. I don't mind the snow but if it never snowed again I wouldn't be upset. I'd much rather play a cold round of golf that snowblow my driveway and still be cold. Simp

We havn't had too too much snow but there's still about a foot on the ground. I love this weather. The warmer the winter and the less it snows the sooner courses will be open around here.

Same here. As much as I like snowmobiling and stuff, I'd much rather be playing golf. It's nice to see some green grass. I hope this is it for snow this year. I like snow for christmas, but after that I've about had it. Plus this year I'm working at a local course so I'll be golfing there for free.

We've already had over half of our average yearly snowfall, so this is a nice break. 47* and sunny for Thursday, I'll try for 36.
