February 8Feb 8 We've officially entered "just two more weeks and the pattern changes and winter is back!" until we reach the end of February and we end up with a cold spring and winter sports shut down.

Pretty much. Then we get garbage time snow in March that melts in a day that pads the shitty stats and makes a terrible winter look decent.
February 8Feb 8 .08" in 31 days .64" in 41 days 11 of past 13 months below normal precip Last 1" event was July Nearly 60" deficit since July 2021 But powers to be be say no real drought here.

February 8Feb 8 All I want is a f***** average f***** winter. Nothing special. Just average. I guess thats too f***** much to f***** ask for these days. **** this f***** hobby.
February 8Feb 8 Next 10 days dont even have our lows getting below 30. Just 2 days get below freezing. This is ******* insanity. Just make it ******* stop already I cant ******* take this nonstop torture
February 8Feb 8 I hope things start trending cooler. Gonna cancel a UP trip on the 16th if this keeps up, can't even chase snow to northern Michigan.

February 9Feb 9 Really want to say "no way next winter can suck this hard" but every time I say that the following winter finds a way to out suck the previous one so im just gonna expect an even shitter winter and an even more severe drought.
February 9Feb 9 Up to 76 now. 80s popping off all over western NE out by McCook. +30 on the high today. Worst Winter Ever

You have been porked so bad it’s terrible. I know some say it’s been bad in KC but nothing like up your way. We got the blizzard in 2022 and last year. Plus a couple 6 inch snow falls. The dry is really not good. Going to be bad this summer if it keeps up
February 11Feb 11 Well, going to go ice fishing again this weekend out on the lake. Last weekend it was about 10-16" thick. By next weekend Maybe 3-5" with this warm up. Funny side note, finally got my wife to come out ice fishing (shes NEVER gone) so I showed her how to set up her tip up etc. I told her any flags we get she has to take over. This chick pulls out a 22" 4.5lb largemouth. I think the biggest I've had out here is 20". Unbelievable lol

Was thinking recently as our lake's been totally iced-over for at least 2 months just how exactly fish survive long winters in the north? Is there really that much oxygen stored in the water to last that long. I mean, compared to lakes far north in Canada we have a short ice season by comparison. Any intel on this subject?

February 15Feb 15 Since August 14th I have officially measured 6.46" of rain! Think of that! HALF OF A YEAR! 6 FULL MONTHS 182 DAYS! 1.07" Per month average! Where in the ^$&%$@!* am I living?. But this govt says its just abnormally dry. THEY ARE NUTS!
February 15Feb 15 Even some 1" spots in nebraska. My last 1" event was in July. I will post similar maps north of this SE Iowa hell hole next week!

I'm not a smart man, but ive always heard the fish basically slow their metabolism down extremely almost to hibernation levels and get as deep as possible in that situation. We have had some kills by our cabin about 5 hours north of us closer to Lake Superior. Sometimes the ice and snowcover are so bad it chokes off everything and over half the lake dies off. Its a shame, we have a place near the UP and had a fish kill about 8 years ago, and the shorelines were filled with 20"+ fish of all sorts, seems like the big ones go first. The smell was awful and the amount of birds, racoon and bear around us were unprecedented. That said, we need some moisture. We had a good ice freeze this year, started out promising with snow and then nothing. The lakes dropped 5"+ and if we dont have a really wet spring idk if ill even be able to out the pontoon in. Hoping for a couple more big snowfall before April and an extremely wet spring after the thaw.
February 22Feb 22 Possibly unprecendented dry here! .02" in 43 days .64" in 56 days 6.4" in 190 days Soon will be just 6.4" in 7 full months! I dont know which stat is more history making? Probably the 6.4" if it reaches 7 or 8 months
March 8Mar 8 I understand. We’re in the same position. We got a trace from this last “rain” that arrived. It’s unbelievably dry. What we’d do to get a week of real rain. High of 72* today. How awful it will be as temps climb without moisture.

May 5May 5 NOAA's precipitation outlook is predicting "equal chances" for rainfall over the winter months in North Texas. Most of the Metroplex and parts of East Texas and the Panhandle are also showing "equal chances" for precipitation. For the rest of the state, below normal precipitation is expected. ______________ This is their cop-out, stinko forecast that says it’s going to be a seriously lousy spring as rain goes, and a baker’s oven summer. Killing us with kindness. When will this stop? Texas/Okla need some rain. This isn’t funny anymore.
