Well I don't know about the rest of you guys in the new england area but i'm about one fifty degree day away from giving up all hope on this winter. Supposed to be in the upper 40's-50 today and tomorrow w/ rain tomorrow. I'm about ready to start striper fishing season...

I think its offical for me too. I've stayed strong all winter, but I give up. We were supposed to get 8 - 14 inches lastnight and today, 100% chance heavy snow. We got about an inch and a half and the storm split, and COMPLETLEY went around us.

Southern ontario hasn't been much better. We got a pretty good dumping of 5 or 6 inches of heavy snow last night, but it's supposed to be warm today and rain. It's a good 2 hour drive to get good trails! Hopefully next winter will be better!

thats the storm that is hitting us now. You didn't miss a whole lot, very powdery stuff and is blowing bear spots like crazy. Had a few guys back out on our Eagle River trip this weekend because of forecasts now they are pissed because there is 10 inches of snow but its all drifted no good for riding and their spots have been filled.

Yeah, we got about 4-5 inches now in some spots, but it is blowing around like crazy, so some areas have almost nothing. No good for riding, I tried.

The drifts are fun though.

I have given up hope for where I live because it was 50 yesterday and now we got 3 inches of snow. But i'm going up to tug hill over break for a few days. And maybe deer valley if i can talk my dad into it.

snowandski88 · 02-16-2006, 04:36 PM

Move to northern MI. This weekend is going to be amazing. They already had 10 inches and are getting 12 more today (thursday) 7-9 tonight and 1-3 tomarrow. sure it has came late but now its is good and will be for a couple more weeks at lest.

Arctic · 02-16-2006, 07:03 PM

well we got about 7-8 inches total now, not as much as I had hope and it is all powder, so not the best riding. but i guess i will take anything at this point.

camarors8992 · 02-16-2006, 07:36 PM

tommorrow hear it's going to get very cold with strong winds and then heavy squalls all weekend. I have all next week off from school too.

rgoers · 02-16-2006, 08:13 PM

I haven't given up on winter, because we haven't had winter yet!!!

Worst darn snowmobile season I can remember... Wish we had snow like in the 70's when I was a kid.

letitsnow · 02-16-2006, 08:17 PM

i've noticed that as i upgrade my sleds each winter is succesivly worse. when i had mid-70's sled we had 3ft of snow, flash to now, 90's sled no snow. this sucks.
