Good three mile walk via headlamp with the dog this evening on the groomed path out back into town and back. 30F feels like hoodie weather. It’s crazy how mild it feels. 50+ degree rise will do that I guess. First time she’s really been out for more than 1-2 min at a time in past 2-3 days. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahk_webstah Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Trying to stay in the moment, whatever happens happens. Enjoyed a sunny not too cold day climbing up to the top of the hill through 15+ inches of snow to a fantastic view, watching the dogs frolic. It’s a lot of wasted energy to be too invested in what might happen, and in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the hell are you going to do with a cold frozen brown/green landscape?? I love snow more than anyone but might as well get out and be productive and not tortured in February. December different story, but spring is like 6 weeks away might as well be mild if it’s not snowing. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’m not opposed in principle, but by the time this current mild spell this week wanes (at least to an atmosphere that can support snow), we’re getting into mid-February and it’s getting pretty late to freeze everything into mid-winter form. Up in Rangeley it’s not that late but down here if you have open water in mid-February, it’s pretty hard to bring that back to weeks of ice. You’d need like a solid 5-7 day cold snap and then no torches right after it. Unfortunately that type of look is not in the cards. We may get a snow threat or two but the temps look to run pretty mild…maybe a flip later in the month. But this SE ridge is pretty robust, so the more pragmatic side of me says I’d rather just mail it in at this point instead of hoping for cold/snow that is going to be tough to come by. We’ll still get a few snow threats. My aim at this point is to root for us running into a big dog late this month or early March and then call it a season. I’ve given up on the pack and pond ice fetish until next year. I did get out on the ice today with the boys and it was great. Not cold but 4-5” thick black ice on the local pond. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing in the cards coming up, so keep the nice wx coming if it can’t snow. I’ll always cheer snow on if it looks imminent, but for now…ain’t complaining about 50. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love snow and winter but I won’t root for more than a day or two of that type of cold regardless of ground cover, ha. I always go for weather that makes people want to be outside and that just doesn’t hit the note. It’s novelty runs out fast. That duration was perfect for a record arctic blast. Speaking of wanting to be outside, also completely get the snowless zones desire for nice weather. That gets folks outside. Mentally and physically, it’s healthy to be outdoors. I’m all in on that stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxWatcher007 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 We got our Arctic shot and that cold won’t be topped for a long time. Don’t really care what happens now, though hopefully NNE can keep the slopes and trails going. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
