But what I do know is that it is happening and is unlikely to allow futility for anyone...at least in New England, anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s very hard to imagine me not getting another inch of snow from 2/9 through the end of March. But I can see how it does happen, cuz we can’t catch a single f’n break. 4.3” on the season here…it would be easier to get another 6” of snow from now through the end of March, than it would be to get shut out. But if there’s a season to do it, it’s certainly this one. I mean, I thought 11-12 was bad, but that’s a joke compared to this so far. This has the ability to be in its own league of RAT at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some may interpret this as me trying to play it both ways, but it's not because I grade what I posted in November, regardless. I'm just trying honestly convey a level of uncertainty. I expect that pattern moving forward to produce some snow, but I also need to acknowledge that the pattern all season has struggled to produce snowfall comensurste with potential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand your position, No worries. I’d like to have one major storm(it wouldn’t change the Rat status obviously), but it would take a tad of the sting away. And then it can be full on spring come mid to late March. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't 50F the minimum level for germination. They also differentiate between leaf index and bloom which happens much later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one of two winters in my past 19 years of riding I didn't ride in April at least once. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The smaller ponds have had coatings of ice here and there, I don' think any but the smallest were ever safe to walk on. The bigger lakes like Webster Lake only had a full thin coating after last weekend and is back to 50% open water. Other than 2012 they usually have ice enough for ice fishing for a while, last year even had ice a foot thick for a short while. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
