  1. Man! If you have not ridden a modern snowmobile when you try one you'll think you're having fun with a totally different sport! Apples and oranges is a far insufficient description of how modern snowmobiles perform.. especially if you ride skidoo. Back in 2002 I had a chance to ride the Prototype Ski-Doo REV at a dealer in Lyndonville vermont. We put a deposit down that afternoon for the following year as soon as we got back to the showroom. Ride like butter!
  2. There's nothing like a game of golf after a hard days work... as a secondary way to piss you off! That's why I gave it up lol
  3. Sustained cold, and some damn cold mornings for sure. This is the first year I've noticed that I have to prepare myself for the cold even more... must be getting old LOL
  4. Looks like even the Cape scrape is off the table this A.M. 10 degrees here in Westfield. And now we've gone from kicking the can to kicking frozen dog crap
  5. Just enough in my areas to have the heavy equipment scrape side roads all day... and warm the cab. One thing I HATE is driving with a jacket on. High of 28 in Westfield today, felt like 48!
  6. Well, some guys are just fun to lol joking... sort of. I've been in a weird mood today. I feel like after having to work outside in the sun today and feeling that feeling that Nape Tip fee he's s always mentions this time of year, my brain has decided that it's time to F this winter and head into spring. Reset for next season
  7. Agreed on this end also. I understand where he's coming from and right now that certainly seems to be what's happening. However looking back there's nothing saying that this isn't exactly what happened before. Many would argue that cc is also what caused our extremely snowy years of the past couple decades. It's all a big fluid dynamics crapshoot in the end
  8. Well I usually would not bring up a Tip vehicle warmth observation, but it's highly evident today. Driving around in the truck for work and there is no need for a jacket at all, had to pull over and take it off. Heat is turned down below 50%. Sun angle?
  9. Must've been April '82. I don't remember March '84. IIRC my area missed it. I'll have to look it up. Edit, I remember 1982 now that was the storm where it had been very warm a couple weeks beforehand. I wonder if the storm in 1984 is the one where they were convinced it was going to be shunted off it was going to be shunted out to sea? I really wish I could find my old weather notes!
  10. What was it 1983 or 82?? we had the surprise storm down in SNE. I remember staying up way past my bedtime to watch the 11:00 p.m. news weather reports. I still remember Hilton Kaderly showing the map with a high pressure north of New England saying it was the Rock of Gibraltar and the storm would go out to sea, woke up early the next morning to a white out. And that was the last good one for several years
  11. Most likely, and happening during a Sox home game no less
  12. Well exactly. Just the same old suspects with high hopes that many hours out
  13. And it's already severely diminished at 6Z vs 18Z yesterday
  14. Sometime late march, around my birthday
  15. I think some here have had just about enough compromise, and will shove in sideways if you suggest they should
  16. 26" at home in Westfield, haven't kept track in Simsbury, but it's a few less for sure
  17. 12 in Westfield and 14 here at the shop in Simsbury
  18. Looks like they landed way too hard and collapsed the right landing gear. Unstable approach the rule is to go around
  19. We're going to get one eventually, just need to wait out the dry spell
  20. Yeah right now Tuesday if it actually materializes looks like some heavy rain
