TT-SEA Posted December 8, 2023 Report Share Posted December 8, 2023 10 years ago today... I think it was very cold and the little snow we had was crunchy hard and great for sledding. I can also tell the east wind had been blowing because there is no snow on the trees. 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was so ridiculous. It was warm and comfy, but I was like George Costanza whenever I visited any indoor place. Stuff flying off shelves and counters. It was just too puffy for human consumption. I donated it to a place that gives warm clothes to the homeless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 8, 2023 Report Share Posted December 8, 2023 At this point all I could hope for is a quick hitter that dumped a few inches and was cold for a couple of days.

Dave Posted December 8, 2023 Report Share Posted December 8, 2023 To Mossman, I gotta to say you have to try snowmobiling. I've seen your hundreds of images on your jetski so it isn't that different. But in the middle of winter on top of 15 feet of snow with snow covered mountains everywhere is a world unknown to most. Give it a shot. Of course all the different hobbies need $$ which sucks.

Andstorm Posted December 8, 2023 Report Share Posted December 8, 2023 Aren’t the models still calling for a weakening of polar vortex later this month? I know that doesn’t always presage colder weather for us in pac NW. But it would sure be nice to shake things up a bit. Regarding EPS discussion, I definitely prefer that in the long range than riding the model to model variances of the single control forecast. Bottom line is it’s all pretty worthless outside of 8-10 days, depending on general pattern. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rented a sled a couple of times to try snowmobiling. It was quickly realized that about 5x the price of the rental would buy me a decent starter sled. It's not all that expensive of a hobby if you become a snowmobile mechanic of sorts. lol. BTW, snowmobiling is a dangerous thing, but it is only as dangerous as you want to be. If you are packing simple survival tools, don't take blind corners at 30mph and just ride safely, it is a safe hobby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR.SNOWMIZER Posted December 8, 2023 Report Share Posted December 8, 2023 I stopped riding for the most part about 4 years ago, old age and fear kicked in I always knew that when it started to scare me it was time to stop, that's when you get hurt. Looking back at all the dumb things I did it's a wonder I'm alive I demolished a snowmobile so bad once in revelstoke during filming the snowmobile had to be removed with a chopper. 5 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow.
