Are you tired of winter yet?

Every year, I get tired of winter a little earlier. I used to get tired of it in February. I've had (winter) cabin fever for about a week now. It has nothing to do with how much time I spend at home; it's how much time I spend indoors ANYWHERE
I used to try to adapt and fool myself into liking winter. Now, I just figure it's a lousy fact of life and I might as well complain about it constantly. (It seems to work for other people).
Is anybody else sick of it yet?

been ready for spring since Thanksgiving:)

"indoor trainers" SUCK!

It's been about 65 degrees with sub-tropical rain here in San Diego.

Barefoot weather in January!

It only lasted a few days in December just like the past few years. Nothing to get tired of really. The birds are pairing up and singing in the trees, and we're ready to rumble.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.

...and depressing. Much less daylight, women all covered up, too cold for comfortable walks...bleah.

Perhaps I would be if I was actually experiencing some cold weather, though I don't know since I love the cold as long as I have enough warm stuff on. Where I live (southeast Texas) it's currently in the seventies, though! We had some nice cold around Christmas (actually got into the twenties; the coldest it ever gets around here) but has since gotten much warmer than I like it. I plan to eventually move somewhere where there are actually true winters!

In New Hampshire, you can be cold from November to May!

It would definitely take some getting used to, though. Last January, my brother-in-law and I went up to New Hampshire for a week to help out John Kerry in the primary. The area we were in (Claremont) was experiencing seventy-four year record lows; I think it got into the -30's during the middle of the night one night! I liked it, though the weather does definitely start getting to you after a while... I'd stand in front of a polling place for an hour or so at a time holding Kerry signs and would feel like a block of ice by the end of the hour- especially my hands, even with gloves on!

Here in SE Wisconsin by mid February the threat of daily highs below zero F is usually past.

The worst is soon to be over, I wish I could say the same about W's second term.

I love Winter. The cold weather is invigorating and the gray skies always bring pleasant memories of adolescence.

at least three feet of snow by now, used about 500 gallons of fuel oil, and not seen the ground for a month. It isn't good for the ski areas nearby, but we are enjoying this completely unusual mildness so far.

We will get ours, as it is forecast to not go above 25F for two weeks starting Friday. Yesterday, I walked nine holes of golf for the third time this month, at our local ski resort golf course.

I am a builder, and it has been good to work this much, as well.

Over the past month we've had a lot of days with temps in the 50s and 60s in Maryland. Not that many really cold days. We usually get some cold and snow in february, though.

I don't mind the cold, but I dread ice storms, heavy snow, and high winds.

...so I can't be tired of it yet.

living in Florida for three years. This winter has been very warm even for Florida. Low 80's and hig 70's every day for a long time now. I hate living here, and I would rather deal with winter and live in a nice New England town.

Plus, next winter will be my son's first real winter. He'll be 3 by then and old enough to enjoy playing outside in the snow. I used to love playing in the snow as a kid. I think it will be fun to play outside with my son in the snow too.

I sleep all the time and I'm grumpy and lethargic when I'm awake. I think I might try going to one of those tanning places just to trick my brain into thinking it's not winter.

Here in Austin, we're in the mid 70's today. The week after Christmas felt like September. We are supposed to get a bit of a front later this week that will take it back down to the 30s overnight.

I used to hate the summer time and couldn't wait for winter.Now I'm with you, I can't stand it. I find that as I get older, I can't handle the cold anymore. I never seem to get warm. I've joked with my husband that if it becomes neccessary to leave the country, I'm gonna have to head to Mexico instead of Canada.

And for us in London, it's been an unusually mild one considering the storms in the North.

Once the holidays are over, I start pining for spring. I don't have cabin fever yet, though. That usually does hit sometime in February for me.

for the past few weeks. So my answer is:

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From there it has nowhere to go but up, more daylight, warmer temps.
This winteer has been so dark, not as cold as past winters, but, we've had pipes freeze that I thought I had fixed last spring.
It's the damn ice I don't like, we can deal with snow, but there is more ice forecast for this week.

supposed to be 70 this weekend here in DC. c'mon, get it over with, dorp the other shoe already, the suspense is killing me.

but I will be before it's over

It's supposed to be 56 degrees tomorrow.

*cough *cough

I was tired of winter afer the first cold snap.

We had some snow two weeks ago, then BAM! back in the 60's and 70's here in Virginia.

of the snow, even the first one several weeks ago and I am tired of the cold. I would want a constant 45-70 degrees all the time.

Well, we are now 45% done with meteorological winter...does that make you feel better?

And I'm already tired of next Winter.

We might get 2 more days this week. Blech. I HATE 80 degree winters!!!
I'm beginning to think that Texas is preparing hell for Bushler.

on Christmas Eve. Then it can go away until next Christmas Eve.

And I've spent 2 weeks of it in a very warm tropical locale. However, today it's a whopping 18 degrees. The snow from last week hasn't even begun to melt. I haven't seen the sun since last week, when it was below zero and windy as all hell.

Today I broke down and bought a hella expensive parking permit because I'm sick of parking in a snow bank and then walking 5-6 blocks on sidewalks that are solid ice. Screw winter.

... Winter Storm Watch remains in effect from this evening to
Wednesday morning...

The Winter Storm Watch is for that part of north central and
northeast Illinois... and northwest Indiana along and north of the
Kankakee and Illinois rivers. Significant accumulations of ice from
freezing rain are likely beginning after 9 PM tonight and continuing
until Wednesday morning.

A mix of winter weather is expected to overspread the watch area
this evening. It will start as some lighter snow and sleet... then
change to all or mostly freezing rain overnight tonight and
early Tuesday morning. The freezing rain is likely to continue
through the day Tuesday and through Tuesday night.

FUN!!!

here in Pittsburgh since it was really cold on X-mas Eve. So it isn't really winter. I think I would rather have cold and snowy than this grey rainy stuff. But then I haven't had to use the shovels much so far, so I guess I shouldn't complain.

I try to enjoy every moment of this time of year, before the 7 months of summer return.
