Got Weather? Snow?
Besides having one the strangest (wettest, Coolest, windiest...) ski season's last yr. it seems that most of us are still getting whacked... -This time it's by a rejuvenated "Old Man Winter." What the Heck, did the Old Man get his hands on some the same stuff as Barry Bonds & Mark Mcgwire or what???
I'm sure someone else has it alot worse. But, it's pretty Bad (for Nashville...) to still have the the 'ol shovel and broom standing next to the front door from the last two snow storms and there's another 2-3" on the way again tonight!
How Messed up is your Weather?

Re: Got Weather? Snow?
More snow in MN than we've had in 12 yrs I'd say. XC Skating last weekend with perfect conditions. Lake levels should be up in the spring. Shoveling snow is great cross-training!

Re: Got Weather? Snow?
True, the snow now help us water ski longer. Cottonwoods have had 2-3"+ water in the last 24 hrs, Provo canyon and Uintas only around 1" water which is still good but nothing like the cottonwoods.

38 inches at Snowbird in the last 24 hrs. Over 7 feet since April 1st! Hopefully that heat h20dawg is experiencing does NOT turn on too quickly here, otherwise we'll have some major flooding...

Re: Got Weather? Snow?
Sorry, i must have used the wrong "unit", it must have been 3cm(30mm), otherwise it couldnt be possibel. Maybe if we lived in Iceland
We have around 50 deg F in the air durin the days and 30deg F at night.
Today the boat went in the water and i made my first set, very unstable.....but the good thing is that the water temp already is 45 deg F (7,3 deg C).
