Of course by this time of the year any green forecast is  
problematic.   I remember back about October of nineteen and fifty  
two, my mother said it was going to snow that night.   The corn on  
her foot was acting up and it was as good a weather prognosticator as  
any wooly caterpillar.     Well, guys, we woke up the next morning  
and there was six inches of wet, white snow on the ground and on the  
green leaves of the maple tree.   We learned near to argue with Mom's  
legendary corn.

During the trip through Austria we lived with a stalled low pressure  
area for 12 days.   Driving from Graz to Wien (you probably call it  
Vienna) we were in a totally white out.   Several days later on the  
pass between St. Polten and Mariazell, we were driving through an  
area that had been plowed but it was obvious that they had about 18  
inches of snow the night before.   We're talking two weeks ago.
