cmh_sprint Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 This better be wrong. If I go 2 winters in a row without being able to snowmobile I am going to be one exceptionally pissed off S.O.B.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 I'm over snow... I am not one to bitch and complain about the weather so much as suck it up and deal with life throws at me, but shoveling sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 In the Midwest, where the worst drought in 50 years hurt crops this year, Accuweather.com said snowfall levels would fall short of normal levels again this winter.We are in the Midwest, not the northeast or the Rockies.

wantahertzdonut Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 I'm over snow... I am not one to bitch and complain about the weather so much as suck it up and deal with life throws at me, but shoveling sucks.YES. Driving to work in it sucks the big one too.Snow is great on the slopes, but living with snow in the everyday is the worst! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHill Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 I <3 snow.....used to drive a 2wd pickup that never had any weight in the rear on Pa roads.....may not be able to ride the bike, but I sure can LMFAO at dumbasses that don't understand the concept of friction.

wantahertzdonut Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Don't get me wrong, I have absolutely no problem driving in snow. If anything I speed up. It's dealing with everyone else that seem to forget that it snows here, and panic-stomp their brakes at the mere site of a snowflake that is wearing on me. There's no reason it should take an hour to go 14 miles in to work!Get me on I-90 on the way to Holiday Valley and I'm in heaven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revelstoker Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Subaru FTW!!! Sounds like an El Nino weather pattern which can have the potential for more snow in the Ohio Valley. El Nino is generally good for Colorado resorts and Tahoe. Taos and Telluride should benefit as well. La Nina years send snow to Oregon and Washington. One La Nina year http://www.athropolis.com/arctic-facts/fact-baker.htm saw over 1000 inches fall on Mt. Baker and they had to dig the lifts out on Mt. Hood. Man that was an epic ski season and I happened to be living out there that year!! La Nina tends to be dry in the Midwest, much like winter 2011-2012.

Bad324 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 My favorite thing too is laughing at people who can't drive in snow. I've driven FWD, RWD and 4WD in all kinds of snow and never had an issue adjusting knowing how to drive. Then again I'm a superior driver to most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohiomike Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) Predicting the weather so far in advance is a crapshoot. I read somewhere those 'expert' weathermen are predicting the earth has gone into another cycle where our weather will be extreme-one way or the other, and much more arid.Ohio is supposed to have a much harder winter this year, a 180 deg swing from last winter so they say. I still plan on riding in to vote come Nov 6. Have done so for the past 5 yrs. course I don't have snowtires on the ol girl yet....lolAfter living in Michigan most of my life I have seen real snowfalls not the 'dusting' that shuts things down here for days. Up there 4' was just more snow to move so I could get out of the garage to get to work. Here 10" paralyzes towns and cities....

Tomcat0403 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 I have a customer that ships rock salt, I need a huge winter. They have the potential to ship 30/40 full truck loads a day when the weather is bad. (I'm a logistics broker btw) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say wetter and colderhttp://www.farmersalmanac.com/weather/2012/08/26/will-winter-return-with-a-vengeance/That's because the Farmers Almanac is usually correct.Perhaps against all odds, but they do it.Close to 80%, find a weather team that can do that.Check the predictions here:http://www.almanac.com/weather/longrange ColumbusWinter will be colder and drier than normal, with above-normal snowfall.

serpentracer Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 I'm over snow... I am not one to bitch and complain about the weather so much as suck it up and deal with life throws at me, but shoveling sucks.it's good exercise for being cooped up inside so much. but the older I got the more my back said to buy a snow blower. so I did.my drive is way too big for a shovel. it needs a plow actually. and being on a hill makes worse of course.
