Ch 33 Winter Forecast                                                     Snow in the Mts                                 

Last week's drive to Vermont heartland, snow, and sander trucks got me wondering about the severity of the upcoming winter. I like to drive in snow anyway, the challenge, etc (stupid like that) but have made some observations and theories based on the animal life in my backyard.

I took this picture of one fat squirrel out back. This is not the fattest and they were all overweight.

Does this mean a bad winter, or have any of you had similar overfed rodents? [prediction was unverified]
