Crap

Seasonal and wetter means snow I hope. The weather doctor said a cold pattern develops near Christmas and then a good deep freeze into January. I'm going with him.

You've been sniffing too much paint fumes ... "Mild" and "Nice" don't go together when you're a sledder hoping for snow ...

 

:lmao:

this really is worse case scenario for clubs, especially in the north.

 

couple early snows, gets everyone pumped, the inevitable warm up, then the holidays, where hardly anyone can groom due to time and breakdown parts, repair constraints.

 

then the inevitable storm that dumps a ton, and the follow up knock out punch, about jan 5-10th... 

 

ALL THE PEOPLE NOT UNDERSTANDING THE LOGISTICS, WONDERING WHY THE TRAILS ARE NOT TABLE TOP, MID SEASON CONDITIONS, BITCHING ALL OVER FORUMS, AND SOCIAL MEDIA HOW TERRIBLE THE CLUBS, DISTRICTS, AND OFSC IS BEING RUN.

I gave up on the almanac years ago . Honestly I have been invested heart soul and business in winter for most of my life . It will be what it will be and the clubs will do their best. Merry Christmas everybody.

Merry Christmas to all ! 

 Bill , Thanks for all you do for sledding and us sledders.

I always rely on first hand reports for conditions and weather ; almanacs are for reading while on the john.

Stay safe and off the trails until you see green !

Forsure, regardless of what any forecaster says we will get what we get. I just find it funny they have been wrong almost every year.

If you really want to get technical you can monitor water temps. A very good indicator of weather and temperatures to come.

I'd be satisfied with yellow... I don't really need green.... Merry Christmas one and all....

Yup I’ll take yellow right now as well, although that little trip to Haliburton forest last week scratched the itch, it was only a temporary itch that has now become an even bigger itch...I knew it would happen.

We had a week of it, on & off ... finally some fresh snow yesterday, about an inch, still a bit coming down.

 

This was a welcome sight though !!!

So often they can't even get the next day forecast correct. Why anybody would think they can predict months ahead is beyond me.

Looking a bit better. 

 

Arctic air stays away through end of the year

Here are my latest thoughts on the long range pattern into January.............


1. Arctic air likely remains locked up across Siberia through the end of the year and probably through the first week of January.

2. Signals are strong for a drier and milder pattern setting up across the western half of Canada through early January.

3. Confidence continues to grow that there will be a sudden stratospheric warming event over the Arctic region in about a week. These events are usually more common later in the winter. In any event, this may eventually translate to a high-latitude blocking event (polar vortex weakens or gets displaced south) by mid-January, which can lead to more extremes (major snow/rain events or cold) across the mid-latitudes from the Prairies through Atlantic Canada and the eastern U.S. for the second half of January.
