You should be diving!

Then find another board that is suitable to your locale.

I am so ****ing sick of winter right now.

Santana Brazil's weather would drive me crazy!

The irony of this post coming from the guy who created an entire blog to post his vacation pics and story.

My county got 100 inches of snow in 1957. That’s before all this noise.

Update from Central Florida, I played golf on Friday and got sunburned, it was 89 degrees, had to turn the A/C on last week. Here's a link to our 3 webcams at the three town squares. You'll see live music everyday at 5pm at all three squares. They're about 5 miles apart. Sometimes if you can't get an image, that's because each camera has a max of 500 viewers, so just keep refreshing the page. I live halfway between Lake Sumter and Brownwood Squares. Those little buildings you see on the edge of the squares are bars, walk up windows for beer and drinks. At 5pm starts happy hour. Each square has a different motiff, Spanish Springs is Spanish of course, Lake Sumter is Key West and Brownwood is a western town.

My girlfriend is visiting her family in Rochester MN, she was supposed to come home today but she is stuck there until tomorrow with the foot of snow they got there.

89 degrees is too much for me.

Supposed to be cold in KC til atleast mid March. ****!

Heard the highs in KC were supposed to be in the teens and 20s not this week, but next week. This is stupid.

The snow on the ground makes a difference

Terrible down there. 14 inches of snow. 45 mph winds. Hearing stories of dairy barns collapsing because of the weight of the snow.

Sister here from DSM. Not going home. Daughter from NDSU. Not going home.
did take two to the airport. Should not be a problem. Amazing.

46 mph wind gust for me at school. 1pm.

Here is here today. Only had maybe a couple of inches, but my driveway is up to my knees from drifting. Going to go out in a little bit and clean up.

Yeah this winter has been a real bitch. 2nd coldest February on record around here and from all indications, it's going to carry into March. Mother Nature can kiss my ass, if I may be so bold?

No new snow up here. It was warm enough that the precipitation we got last night was rain, not snow (along with a thunderstorm). The wind is terrible today, though. The stop lights are bouncing up and down and the light posts are swaying. And of course it's supposed to get down around zero tonight.

It's been a seriously ****ed up month.

I have been looking at it like this.
We did not have real winter until Jan 30. Then cold and big snow.
Hopefully-we don't get any major snows, but there has to be at least one or two left.
Suns rays are really coming in. More like first part of October.

Feb is a short month-makes it feel like a shorter winter. Ready for AZ for Spring Break.

Same. But with the snow from Kansas and Missouri all the way up there, there will be flooding this spring.

Go to Oklahoma paddlefishing in a little over a month. Hope mother nature gets it's act together before then.

ROFL

In Minnesota of all places why would anyone build a house with nearly no pitch in the roof?

I do not understand flat roof buildings here either. My school is.
That house is not bad, rain and snow melt would run off it.

Here in South Dakota, we're forecasted to get above zero today! A whopping high of 2 degrees (although I doubt the "feels like" will be that warm)

I'm ready for Spring... or at least some balmy 20s-30s.

So a heat wave :D

I-35 still closed Owatonna, MN to Ames IA
I-90 closed in Minnesota.
Many side roads closed too.

My girlfriend is stuck in Rochester MN.

I'd be interested to hear if all these extreme cold has done even the tiniest thing to help the glaciers in the arctic?

I'll assume the answer is "no, so we have to go the AOC route", but it would be nice to see the pics that prove the glaciers didn't change at all, and even got worse. You know, doomsday scientists... They're fun to watch sometimes..

Glory - it has helped the glaciers hanging off the side of my house, if that helps

The recent extreme cold is due to cold air migrating south from the arctic. So the arctic is currently warmer than normal. Arctic ice is at its 3rd lowest point since humans started taking satellite measurements.

A harsh winter in one area of the world does not mean that global climate is getting colder. For example, melting of glaciers can cause ocean currents or jet streams to shift, bringing colder air from parts of the world that don't aren't normally a part of that area's weather.

EDIT: Meh, Fish beat me to it.

So its lowest point in about 50 years, on a planet that is 5.5 billion years old?

Heh, I beg to differ, I had to do the same thing last year on the garage roof. I had some massive ice dams and water was starting to back up into one of the vents and enter the garage. I had to heave my snow blower to the roof, blow off the snow and the get after the ice with a dead blow hammer. Not a pleasant day.

Holy shit, that's horrible.

Yeah some of the drifts up there were around 4 feet, so it took forever to get it done. My saving grace was the fact that they used roll roofing and not regular shingles, so there wasn't any damage. Whoever built the garage didn't put much pitch in it. I installed heat cables this fall on the roof and in the gutters, but to be honest, I'm not impressed.

As I expected, basically there's nothing we can do.

Close that bitch before it comes caving in, you ****.

LOL!

People are out without their jackets zipped up.

Damn Global Warming

So it's the lowest in all of the whopping 40 years we've been measuring it?!?! Oh no, we're doomed!!!!

Yes that's where there are no articles or pictures about travel anywhere. No interest.

Also my Mom liked my blog. :p

Thank god we have AOC.

I really enjoyed your blog and I read the entire thing. That doesn’t take away from the irony.

I actually enjoy the snowy deck pictures.

all the snow is about melted in KC...BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!!!

Fake news

I certainly hope it is

Yes.

Honestly this is where you call someone with a bobcat or backhoe to dig you out. :D

I spent some time in S. Dakota construction staking and building a pipeline. It was one of the colder places I worked but the Minnesota near Canadian border was numero uno and wins so far.

Id still take it anyday over summer and humidity of Louisiana after the floods receded from Katrina. Miles of flooded out muddy sugarcane fields that smelled of dead shad and squiters as big as dragonflies and gators. You would hoof in from roads you could access and get as close to sites as you could carry all you could on your back then hoof back and restock. The Pipeline company hired locals to watch for gators and dispatch if need be. They lasted 1 payday so we strapped sidearms. I was never so happy to be transferred to Oklahoma on another project.

Lol **** that.

Ive said it a few times here but you get cold its because you not moving so put on more clothes or get in a truck and warm up. Once your hot your just hot and remain that way. Most outdoor workers I know feel the same.

The ice outside is no joke today I hit my neighbors car

Sorry to hear that. I was up and headed to the gym and turned right the **** around. I thought it might just be the driveway (North-facing house), but nope....

Stay in folks!! (if you can)

I got about 8 pto days thinking about burning one or atleast waiting til 10am to see

Welp, gonna be staying in today with the little man. The wife made the journey to work this morning and said the roads were awful. Doesn't look like much out there, but that's how ice works. Looks fine until you're in a ditch.

Stay safe everyone

We've managed to dodge most of the nastiness this year down here and only have had to deal mostly with cold temps. Supposed to get some ice tonight and possible snow accumulation on Monday, but still not expecting too much. That said, I'm ready to find Mr. "Early Spring" and skin him alive. I can only imagine how I'd feel if we had it any worse. I'm just so tired of 60 degrees one day, 30 degrees the next.

NOAA to launch new forecast model
 

These might be the worst road conditions yet this winter. That ridiculously thin sheet of ice will **** you up.

ugh..average temps are usually in the 50's right about now.

:cuss:

This winter sucks the biggest sack of nuts. We've got off so easy for years and years and now we're paying the price.

Gotta love a job that gives zero ****s about weather conditions. Its 2019 let us work from home.

Stay safe.. Not much deals with ice very effectively. Well, other than my hockey skates, but they don't make them for the big red Chevy...

347 wrecks up here yesterday and no hotels to book between Columbus and Livingston. If you wrecked in that stretch, they weren't coming to help you.

Wow what a bitch , yall have had an assload of snow this yr?

Don’t get me started.

I made the mistake of looking up the historical average high/lows for our area.

Phil the groundhog needs to be dealt with harshly.

Yep, didn't make it in today. Seeing how it was an hour+ to get to downtown from anywhere in the Northland and watching a car slide off the road right next to my complex made my mind up for me.

This winter season can just die already.

Some people prefer winter over summer.


I just....uhhh....they must not do ANYTHING outside.

can't wait to move out of this drafty ****ing house with shit ****ing windows

it was so cold this morning i turned the heat up 2 degres

Iam one of them, everything I do is outside.in cattle business and cows are calving right now,and iam changing my mind on which weather I prefer lol.we have had such mild winters here for so long I had forgotten how bad real ones suck

When I was a kid everyone put plastic over the windows to shut down the draft.thank goodness for Anderson windows lol

Not so much this "year". It all decided to come down this week. I could see parts of my lawn on Sunday. Today, the snow is up to my crotch and 10 more inches are expected.
