Countdown to Spring: Nuisance Snow

Today's weather brought an unexpected few hours of what many call nuisance or annoyance snow.  For those who live in areas where even light snow throws people into shock, awe and panic, nuisance snow is light snow which doesn't generally accumulate beyond an inch or so when it's done. Some define it as not sticking to the roads, other will say it's not a nuisance if it doesn't stick to the roads and make them slick and a potential hazard until the asphalt warms enough to melt it.

I define nuisance snow at this point as anything greater than one snowflake per square foot in a 24-hour period.  Doesn't matter if it coats anything.  Doesn't matter whether the roads are covered or not.  It's all nuisance snow now, and it needs to go

AWAAAAAAAY.

Am I getting more militant about this winter stuff or what?

Only 22 days until spring.
