Ever wish you had more snow?

[dave1949]

this is one of the lightest snow seasons ive ever seen here in north Idaho. We had 6-7" last november...all melted off. Then 3" about 1 week ago...mostly melted. Got another 1" today.

I mean..why bother.

Last winter was like that for us. We didn't get snow to speak of until late winter-early spring. 1/2 to 2/3 of the town's sand pile never got used.

We've had cold, snow and ice early this year. The worst is this has been a really cloudy month, fog and overcast clouds hanging around for days at a time.

I saw a forecast saying the jet stream is going to be staying farther north than normal. It was calling for above normal January temps for most of the country.

I saw that forecast map. Northern New England was the only place that was to be colder than normal. Around Texas was well above normal, and the rest of the country, except for us, was above normal temperatures.

We'll see I guess, if we are lucky. :laughing:

Hey, that's us up here! (Look up Dorset, Ontario on your Google maps.) -27 Celsius is forecast for Jan. 3 - guess what that is in American!

Brrrrr! My poor tractor!

If it makes you feel any better we're sitting at -10º Canadian right now. Snow temperatures instead of ice!:thumbsup:


The slush is now back to ice. My neighbor got stuck in his backyard because his truck was breaking through the crust on top of the snow. After he stopped to unload his fallen branches he couldn't get enough traction to break his way out. Fortunately it only took a couple of quick pulls to get him going in a direction where could build some momentum to drive out without stopping. Its amazing how fast tires can become useless on ice.

-More snow on the way!? -Tursday. I still haven't plowed the drive and barn. I caught a foolish flu and went to walkincare yesterday for antibiotics- deep in the chest and I didn't want to spend today sitting on the tractor- tomorrow's job! Got 9" overnight- we drove home through it yesterday. Big wide flakes.

"I caught a foolish flu"
