Right in the extreme red oval on the map. It was 50F on Thursday, and we had steady rain overnight Friday into Saturday. The grass is still green here. I transplanted a dormant hazelnut seedling yesterday just for the hell of it, because I have hundreds and the ground isn't frozen yet.

We should be under a foot of snow by now.

Think. Again.
