Live in Welches, OR in Mount Hood national forest. This season as of today: snowfall: 0".
Hope I didn't jinx myself. 😬

Damn really? I heard the west coast has been brutal for skiing this year with little to no snow. How much do you usually get?

In the upstate New York region id say we are on par-ish. Probably 25" of snow so far.

By and large, the world is seeing a lot less snow than it used to. This has been an observable thing for decades, I've been watching it since the 1980's. The west gets nowhere near the amount of snow it used to, and it's been that way for a long time. Look at Denver and Aspen.

So in below zero temps you go up a mountain just to cut down through ice to try to catch fish, and do so on a regular basis.... Did i get that right?


You sure got that right 😜 I have been doing it for 40+ years, so I do more then try 😂. I'm having cast iron skillet fried Tiger trout shortly. They were still alive when I filleted them, can you say fresh 😂
It was only 10° this morning, and good fishing. I have to waste some time on game day 🥳

Weather channel is forecasting only 2-4 inches for the Richmond area. WTF, all the local guys are still in the 8-12,

I still think we end up with NADA, nothing.

I agree TR, the "heavy snow" keeps shifting north & I wouldn't be surprised if it turned into an all rain event. The weather guessers here don't have a clue what it's going to do.

That would screw with my circadian for sure. I like it to get dark around 8 at the latest. Up there's I'd be awake until 4-5am easily. Ugh.

Alaska would be nice to visit for while; not sure I'd want to live there.
Well you would like the winters then. Before solstice it's dark by 5 pm, gets light around 8:30 am. An artifact of it being the westernmost area in eastern time zone.

I love snow, I don’t love driving and the logistical challenges it presents though.

I'm scared the most about these dang lows n nashville 4 nights in a row. Gonna have my sinks dripping water and cabinets open 24 7 for 96 hours straight lol.
Now we are hearing ice down here in borderland. I've lived through 3 damn ice storms, two of them major. Enough

Yeah, we had ice 5 years ago n 2021 near Nashville and we were stuck at home almost a week straight.

Doesn’t seem like where I am we will get the worst of it. I’m just south of Louisville. That said, look at the temperatures for the week following this thing. Whatever falls isn’t going to melt for at least a week. No highs above 30 and multiple lows below 0.

That's what propane torches are used for... when your vintage 1960s flame thrower has a valve stuck
