More snow means more melting, more melting means more run-off, more run-off means higher, stronger rivers ans streams, which means the fish that do show up will have to be stronger to fight those cuirrents, which means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

...that is, of course, if you're sick of all the snow to begin with!

A quick melt/thaw could initiate spring flooding, and we all know what that's like! If we don't have a quick melt/thaw then we will probably have snow right into April, which may push back some spring growth. It will be beneficial to the plants and trees as the water will be allowed to trickle through the soil and provide for plenty of water for most of the growing season. A quick melt could initiate spring flooding, and we all know what that's like!

Of course good growth potential also means more insects, more squirrels, chipmunks and other garden raiders, and will mean more leaf raking come the fall.

So, all in all, the snow we have now can be the root of so much good and evil for the entire year.
