record breaking winter

Would you be surprised if I said it was snowing today? It is. But it is going up to 16 degrees this afternoon! I just read on the special weather statement on weatherunderground.com that the winter 2009 in Lansing is the snowiest winter (to date) since 1952 and the second snowiest in recorded history. We have 48.5" of snow already, and we are only 4 weeks into winter, officially!
