Say what?
That's 'par for the course' up here. Only difference....It usually lasts about a month longer up here and we're a bit cooler and damper than the Boston States.

It does explain the number of northern license plates we see here.
It must be lonely up there, based on the number of snow birds we see
here.

Neighbours down a couple houses on the other side of our street left by auto on Saturday. Lots left. The local universities add tens of thousands of students to keep the city busy.

By car? I end up stuck behind them here. I figure they may arrive by
Valentines day, if they drive straight through ;-)

Yup. If you run into a Grey Volvo crossover type car with Nova Scotia plates, say hi for me.
Just today the wife and I were wondering if they had arrived yet.

Make that'plate'. We haven't put them on the front of our vehicles since the mid '90s.

Yup, as the old song said. How can you live like that. I spent a winter
in Ohio, when I was 21. Friggen cold, snow, ice and no mountains to ski.

I will be up in the frozen north myself at the end of the month. I
promised I would take my grand daughter skiing and a promise is a
promise.
I figure it will only cost me about 4 grand ;-)
