02Sled Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 nope, i never cave to my wife. i work to hard not to have some fun. C'mon... you must agree to some of what she wants from time to time. Something tells me things that are important to her she has her way. I know for me when it comes to decoratiing the house... pretty much whatever she wants. It isn't that important to me. I have the rec room, work shop and garage. The rest is hers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revrnd Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I thought this year was supposed to be a La Nina winter & they're the opposite than an El Nino? IMO, this winter has been worse than an El Nino. Any comments from the weather geeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revrnd Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 “It's the closest we've come to cancelling winter,” Environment Canada climatologist David Phillips said. “I mean, you can count the number of nasty days on your hands, in various places.”And it’s a far cry from the frigid weather meteorologists were telling Canadians to expect just a few months ago. Last fall, a Pennsylvania-based company warned this could be one of the coldest winters in 20 years for Western Canada. While Environment Canada was more cautious, it, too, called for a colder-than-average winter in the north and west of the country. The forecasters based their prediction on the knowledge that this would be another La Nina season. The more familiar weather pattern, which results from cooler-than-normal surface temperatures in the eastern Pacific Ocean, typically brings more precipitation and colder weather to parts of Canada and the northern United States. How 'bout we cancel Dave Phillips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledguy74 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 i see winter is once again "starting" this fine saturday morning in KW but i have a feeling it won't really arrive ! It must be extra painful for all the southern club volunteers who work to stake the trails etc. I would guess there will be alot of dealers with left over machines! Good thing I have been through lean winters before. We have to take the good seasons with the bad ones. Loooking at going away for the bulk of 1 week shortly, lets hope the Almaguin trails don't suffer a rain storm like they did last February.

dweese Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 This winter has me beating my head against the wall, thinking man if it was only just a little colder all this rain would have been a crap load of snow. I'm still hoping something shows up next month as February is alway the coldest month of the year. But the way things are going I'm starting to have my doubts. I guess I'm glad I didn't buy the second machine this year after all, however I'm beating come mid march if his weather keeps up there is going to be some kill deals on used sleds.

Turbo Doo Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 You will not ride south of the Gravenhurst area this season, thats what i am thinking.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500ssman Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Snow squalls tonite...maybe then rain on Tues and Wed. If and when the season starts I say it's down to a week of riding left. If I stay in Ontario and get posted to anywhere but Pet I'm throwing in the towel. Winters in this area are a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dweese Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 You will not ride south of the Gravenhurst area this season, thats what i am thinking.. If you come east first than you can ride south of Gravenhurst mind you way east like Perth or Smith Falls area. I be the OFSC is thankful they didn't do the snow guarantee again this year.
