I noticed the same thing after shoveling on saturday! I kept using my legs, not bending over, keeping my back straight, and I made it a whole lot farther than I would have this time last year! and I only stopped because I reached the sidewalk and that was dave's section to work on - I am not sore from all the shoveling at all, and I was out there for almost an hour.
it's kinda cool to see all that time lifting heavy things pay off with practical application. I just hope I do not ever need to apply my strength to surviving a zombie apocalypse. but, just in case, best to be prepared. ;)
side note: yes, I noticed the inch variations too. it's weird. I know we got over 2' here, but they're reporting springfield got 17" - dunno where they're measuring...
