WINTER LAMENT (by Geomimi55)

Tired of the clouds, the cold and gray,
We’re ready for winter to go away.
Ready for T-shirts, sandals and sun.
Now go away winter,
you’ve had your fun!
We’ve baked cookies and pies
And gained a few pounds
While your wintery blast
Has made it’s rounds.
You’ve killed skeeters and bugs,
You’ve brought families together.
You’ve flood-cleaned the valley
With your horrible weather.
But we’re ready for T-shirts,
sandals and sun.
Now go away winter!
You’ve had your fun!

Here’s a puzzle to solve on one of those dreary winter days when you don’t want to go out in the cold.

North
(Fog, sky visible)º 15.(rain showers, torrential)0

West
1(recent snow, not showers during the past hour)º
(drizzle, heavy, intermittent, not freezing).192
