gravitylover Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 In any event, is it time to move on to spring after this? Anyone holding out hopes for one more system? The cupboard looks pretty bare to me. Bring on spring! Below freezing nights with warm, calm days and no rain. This should keep a good crust on the snowpack and help to preserve it through the month. Last year we were still riding on a good crust right through March and there were still good fields of it on north faces into the beginning of April. To me this is a perfect spring, great mt bike conditions and perfect grillin' and beer drinkin' situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Gorilla Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Moving on after another bust, one of many this season. Tranquil and mild weather seems to be rule over the next 1-2 weeks at least. Sounds great to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll raise a glass to that I was able to remove all the leaves that had been frozen in my rink since early January which is important as the sun is so strong now, and although the opportunities to skate at night are diminishing, the cold nights should allow for some morning skates for the next week or possibly two.

Yeah, being outside a good part of yesterday only accelerated my spring mode, have a few beers in the yard felt great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chietanen Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yeah, being outside a good part of yesterday only accelerated my spring mode, have a few beers in the yard felt great. Definitely getting a little tired of the winter warmers, stouts, and porters. Looking forward to some lighter stuff as the weather warms. Though I do have bottles of Speedway Stout and Prairie Bomb that I need to crack open at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my bosses is up in Vermont skiing and mentioned he may bring me back a maple porter back from up there. I'm hoping he does, I had a maple porter once and found it tasty. This is an Irish red ale month for me along with Guinness but the shifting to lighter stuff is very near. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxEngine Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I drink the heavier stuff all year. Spring beers suck. 3.9", north of NYC. Still snowing moderately. Didnt expect either, reading the forums the last few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vermont has some incredible breweries, and many of them don't distribute outside the state. The Alchemist, Lawson's (which actually is now distributing in CT), Hill Farmstead just to name a few. The usual highest rated beer on beer advocate is Heady Topper which is a double IPA by The Alchemist. If you haven't had it, ask him to bring you a can (if he can find it). Lawson's has a couple of amazing IPA's as well. I drink the heavier stuff all year. Spring beers suck. 3.9", north of NYC. Still snowing moderately.

Didnt expect either, reading the forums the last few days I'll switch from Newburgh brown ale to their cream ale when I go there. I'll drink various types of adult beverages though, I'll drink ciders that aren't too sweet, more on the dry side, and I'll drink Twisted Tea and lighter beers when its warm out. The thought of a Smithwicks after mowing the lawn doesn't really work for me honestly but I could have one with dinner. Its been close to three hours since a flake has fallen here, I'm calling it, dead on arrival in these parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Trout River red ale from Vermont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sn0w Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Very strange to not even see a WWA posted for here with snow literally on our doorstep and I am expecting 3-6" based on the model runs starting 18z and most recently the 0z GFS which showed over 0.5" here. We'll see what happens Lol finally just posted a WWA for 2-4" about 20-30 mins ago...after we probably already hit the 2" (was an inch when I left my house over 3 hours ago)...and now of course under the best radar returns of the storm the snow seems to be stopping go figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 3" of fluff over a micro glaze. It's cold, really cold, with only a hint of a breeze out of the NW. Thick, low clouds that look like they should be precipitating. Feels and looks like winter should. I don't think I'll miss this one though.
