You made the right move, by turning back. Otherwise, by now you might just be a statistic.
We haven't had a winter like this in a long time. I remember one around 1974 when the frost went over 5' deep. We had some snow in November and it all rained away, followed by deep freezing. The only thing that can help now is about 3' of snow. That might provide enough insulatin that the normal ground heat could slowly melt the frost and work it out. If that doesn't happen, all the rain we get will just run off until it gets warm enough to melt the frost. Could be a very dry summer coming our way.
