It’s not quite from sea to shining sea, but the latest winter storm gets an “A” for effort (or is that an “E”?).
For its sheer size, this one is a monster, stretching from New Mexico to southern New England.
If you’re keeping track on your maps at home, that’s 2,000 miles of snowy misery and 94 million people under some sort of winter weather warning, watch or advisory.
“Enough,” cries a winter-weary nation.

Enough of the sleet and ice in the Dallas area. More than 640 arrivals and departures were canceled at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on Wednesday. Another 540 have been scrubbed for Thursday.

Enough snow for a snow emergency. The federal government is closed on Thursday.

Tennessee
Enough snow to eat ice cream.

Enough snow to …
Actually, New Mexico is weird.

Massachusetts
Enough snow to go totally nuts.
So far this season Boston has seen 105.7 inches — almost 9 feet — of snow. That’s just 1.9 inches short of the record set nine years ago.
More snow is expected from this system, but it’s not likely to be enough to break the record as the forecast models indicate the majority of snow will stay south of the city.
There is a slim chance of snow on Thursday, followed by days of sunshine and temperatures near 40 by Monday.
State of silliness
Enough cold to wrap yourself in blankets
“Another #SnowDay? Auto-Swaddle yourself in softness,” recommends Downy.
