#12I have decided that snow is for children. Go play (in the snow) are words to a childs ears. I remember the snows of 69 in Ma. iDrifts to six feet and I was a pig in shit . Hadan auditor out from St, Louis today said he got 18" last night. Quakes cause carpentry needs, shake away. Hang tough Maddog the humidity is right around the corner. Freezing and dry or hot and wet, just a mass of two shits.

#13I know you don't want to hear it, but it was 80 degrees earlier this week. Although it did chill down quite a bit to 70 degrees today.
And the only shaking from "you know what" will be from the pipes of my superduke.
damn I'm a dick.

#14It's back to what we call "taking the piss weather" in the UK.
Monday is generally grey as fook all day with a bit of rain or drizzle thrown in, the Sun is a long distant memory.
Tuesday/Wednesday are about the same but slowly improving.
Thursday its actually dry all day and the roads start to slowly dry out.
Friday is really quite a pleasant-ish day for Jan, one might even say warm. The sun even comes out for a few hours in the afternoon and what's more the roads are dry! You of course fall into the trap of thinking you might get out for a blast tomorrow
Wake up Sat and I'll be fooked, its sunny out there but still a tad cold, better leave it a hour or 2. Oh baby the bikes coming out though
By 10 it's cloudy and by 11 it's raining. Sun comes out about 2 just to mock you, as there is 0% chance of the roads drying out before it's dark.
Sunday it rains.
Repeat..

#19Mountian bikes fook that! I'd just swallow the cost of flights and accommodation and not go. Put the money you save into a long weekend trip when some snow returns.

#21I don't know what's going on but I like it. All our snow seems to be falling on Maddog
It could be a bit warmer though. Its hovering around -20C.
The days are starting to get longer and that cold Arctic air has brought some high pressure along with it so the sun has finally made an appearance. Just have to deal with freezing and being snow-blind.

#35Dont worry, the folks on the Global warming committee have assured us the extreme cold weather you have been experiencing is due to fluctuations from global warming...

#36Actually normal winter weather for us, just a lack of snow compared to the average. We know where are snow went
I've seen a lot colder winters and made money cleaning roofs in my youth. Getting lazy in middle age and have someone else plow my driveway.
Maddog,
Where are you in N.E.? You should be used to this if you're in Vermont or New Hampshire.

#45i wanted to show everyone how out of hand this weather is. The snow in my yard is taller than the car:
i consider myself a thick blooded new englander...but this is outrageous. i only live 25 or 30 miles away from the ocean. i have never seen anything like this.
as corny as this may sound, this weather makes me think of the first settlers that came here 400 years ago. hop off the boat, its sunnier than it would be in england or belgium, much warmer too. looks like a nice place to live...and then WHAM! welcome to winter arseholes...you're f***ed...
