SnoSki14 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 We're in a cold bubble while the rest of the world is melting. Ironic given the current administration being dead set on dismantling any and all climate initiatives. We really are a frog slowly boiling except there's some ice cubes keeping us colder temporarily. But once the veil lifts who knows what will happen. 1 2 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJonesWX Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Took a nice snowmobile ride yesterday. Started out in Boscawen @mahk_webstah, went up and over to Newfound Lake. Up over the hills through Lyme and Bridgewater (I assume near @wxeyeNH) to Canaan. Had lunch at the Refinery in Andover, then back to the truck. Nice 115 mile round trip. Trails were great aside from corridor 5 near Gene. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refinery is great. Good burgers and fantastic french fries. That’s a beautiful ride which I’ve done part of on my bike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I’d like to ride the Northern Rail Trail from Lebanon down to the Concord area. I’ve bicycles some of it but never been on it in winter.

alex Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 This is an absolutely incredible start to school vacation week. Best ski season in years. Can’t remember the last time we went 2 months without any rain 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few nice spots to check out, but it can be 50 miles of boring. There are a bunch of trails right off it, a couple small general stores, and a few pizza places. you can also get to the top of Mt Kearsage, which on a nice day has a fantastic view. Let me know if you do it, I’ll meet you half way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it looks seasonable, overall..with a few mild days. Hopefully it has the right idea and we can get some 50's and 60's in here soon. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT Valley Snowman Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Yeah I've got like 20" on the season here of nickles and dimes and scraps. I'm starting to get to the point where I'm either rooting for a big dog or let's just bring on some early spring like weather. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Continuous cold, pack, and events have made this an amazing stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it's not over. Expand It's pretty much over. It was way more frustrating than last winter in that we had opportunities wasted. Last winter it was flooding rain and warm for like two thirds of it. Yet I still got one great storm whereas this winter averaged like 1.2"/event to claw my way to Idk...23" which is 50% of climo.

Expand Well you're in Southbridge which is obviously a better place for winter anyway. I just can't get excited about pack. We don't really do snowpack here I have a southwest facing front yard with no trees. Where I grew up 8 miles north did it very well with dense forest surrounding the yard and about your elevation. I'm under 500' here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piles up there are pretty big. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
