  1. If we were to even score 6" here, it would be a huge win and lots of trail systems will open.
  2. The other option is that a lot of us are superstitious and are always searching for the combination of correct thread start timing and thread starter to bring sufficient luck. I'm not sure who has the most recent batch of mojo when it comes to thread starting. Maybe @Baroclinic Zone? I wouldn't take it personally.
  3. This what I picture you looking like as you wrote that.
  4. Some of us would be fine with it over the canal.
  5. We joke about stocking up on bread and milk but those folk probably should.
  6. I would be happy with 3”-6”. We’ve been getting .5 every three day or so and it would be great to actually have to clear some snow.
  7. Well, it's obviously incorrect. The bullseye for VT is right over my head. We know that never happens.
  8. I don't want to sound like an old curmudgeon but you are correct about historically seeing those temps. I remember growing up that Canaan, VT was somewhat regularly the coldest reading in the lower 48. -20 was a pretty regular occurrence and -30 was not uncommon. It's a few years since I've seen -20 here. Having said that, I have an outdoor event Sunday so I wouldn't mind it moderating a bit.
  9. I did pretty much the same loop today. It was my buddy's first time out on his new sled so we didn't want to get too adventurous. We bought a package from a guy in Plattsburgh, NY who had gotten divorced. 2017 Ski Doo Blizzard 900 ACE - 3200 mi. 2017 Ski Doo Blizzard 12004Tech - 3200 mi 2018 Nitro Hybrid Trailer Paid $13K. I think we got a really good deal. The sleds had been fully serviced with oil changes and new batteries at the end of last year. Trails we good today. A few bumps after the weekend but we met a groomer out.
  10. Went for my first snowmobile ride of the season today. Left from Topsham/Groton and headed up through Peacham to Danville and Walden. Most of the ride was between 1500' and 2000'. We did get up as high as 2300' a couple of times. I didn't stop to measure but I would say the snow depth was between 1' and 3' on average. It was a beautiful day to be out with temps hanging in the low 20s and light snow falling for most of the day. Most here aren't overly familiar with this part of the state, long ago poster Allenson used to call the area the Near Kingdom because its similar to the NEK. Really beautiful area.
