There’s been so much snow in New Hampshire this winter that the Old Farmer’s Almanac has announced a “snowmelt contest:” Whoever picks the day on which the snow in the middle of the publication’s parking lot finally melts away wins a prize.
Dublin, N.H., recorded “several feet” of snow this winter, the editors say. They didn’t say what the prize would be, but we’re thinking a snow shovel would be appropriate.
Don’t try to enter the contest. The deadline passed last week. We’ll let you know the “winning” day — but it may be a month or three.
