Happy New Year to you guys!! That, my friend, is beautiful and hopefully we will cash in at some point
I'm not Larry, but will chime in to say IMO it doesn't matter as much here in the south. We've scored during warm and cold winters. IMO the only thing that really matters is blocking. Don't get me wrong, having a cold winter sure does help if you are in the upper se or the mts, but without blocking you are putting your chips all in on passing clippers, sliders and the hope that the cold air will be established.
PS....I deleted your thread as requested, but fyi there is not a limit on how many threads are made
