Snowmageddon
 
1 Attachment(s)
Awoke early yesterday to this. My pickup in the background had 14" of snow on it, one of our planes 16". There was no new snow on anything when I went to bed. Was plowing, scooping and sweeping snow most all day yesterday and it just kept coming down in flurries and continues to do so this morning.

And now it begins. I guess Old Man Winter has arrived.

Hard to prove it here. Has been in the 60's for the last several days and forecast to continue for several more. Too darn hot to chase grouse.

I'm 61 years old and have lived in south Georgia for all my life. If you took every inch of snow we've had since I was born and put it all together, it wouldn't equal one half of that.

John, I think Georgia football team forgot they had a game yesterday. Florida may be good but not that good!!

I spent an hour and a half with my snowblower one Saturday morning in October, but been mild since.

George, I was afraid that was going to happen. We don't have a quarterback, he left and went to Ohio. And our iron curtain defense is mostly on the injured list. Playing an all SEC schedule is murder. At this point I'm wondering how long before Kirby Smart gets the pink slip.

Trout fishing in NW Ohio today. 70 degrees. Shorts and sandals weather

I haven't seen that white stuff for the last eight years since I moved to South Carolina and I DEFINITELY don't miss it.

They don't call it The Great White North for nothing:rotf:

Your blessing is that it is all snow... lately our big snows either begin with rain or end with rain and we wind up with 2-3” of heavy wet slush on the bottom of it all. And if we don’t get it up it will freeze solid and that REALLY sucks.

Not just grouse but the deer movements went nocturnal too. Too darn hot for their winter coats and daytime movement even with rut kicking in. Rut and human pressure are the two biggest rut suppressors. Since we keep pressure to a minimum the heat definitely changed the movements.

As for that ugly snow, Rich, you can have it all!!!!!!!!!!!! :shock:

As we say around here, we have three seasons, mud,dust and ice.

John Dallas 11-12-2020 10:18 PM

In the UP of Michigan, it's 9 months of winter and 3 months of bad skiing

Mike Koneski 11-13-2020 09:12 AM

Big D, that's both funny and disturbing!! :eek:

George Davis 11-14-2020 06:02 AM

Moved from Midwest to Arizona to enjoy the great outdoors. 2020 is the year of endless summer: 144 days above 100 degrees and 52 of those above 110 this along with the 3rd driest year ever recorded in Arizona.
So please send us some moisture even if it's snow!!!!

Richard Flanders 11-14-2020 09:02 AM

Just hang in there George for another few thousand years and we'll be into the next ice age!

George Davis 11-14-2020 10:34 AM

When global warming turns to next Ice Age it"ll fine in the southwest!!
