Waaaay too cold.
by Pete Fasciano, Executive Director 02/01/2026
Oh, Snap!
Cold snap.
January, February. (Sigh!)
Air is crisp, dry –
but it doesn’t snap.
It saps – warmth from skin – down to the bone.
It lingers – languishing.
Winter does that.
Nothing snappy about January, February.
Nothing eases all the freezes it inflicts.
The trees snap from heavy snows.
Winter kill is afoot.
Winter doldrums – to snap out of.
Bring the Spring – and make it snappy.
A happy snappy Spring? A weary wish.
As I snap snaps on my clumsy coat
I wish this cold snap would end – in a snap.
A hot flash?
Perhaps not.
Oh, snap!
And – as always –
