Here in NE Maryland were looking to get 6 or so inches tomorrow into Monday.
 I just got an e-mail from my buddy Dave in AZ and he's talking 80 degrees and grass mowing !

I was out with my son and my cousin (PowDuck) today in the Ozarks.  We were just doing a little stump shooting and goofing off.  It snowed on us almost all day and is still snowing here at my house now.  Luckily it is a little too warm for anything to stick.  We had a great time just getting out anyway.   BOB

It's melted off here at home, but you can go 15 miles east and find all you want.

Quebec is a big place. I live in the north part.

We are still in the midst of winter.

It was -37 degrees Celsius here last night not counting the wind chill warning. (at -40 Fahrenheit and Celsius are the same)

My stumping area is at a bit above 2500 ft., just below Snoqualmie Pass in the Cascades.   Only folks up there right now are snowboarders and skiers.   I think the current pack is something like 94".  I am longing for spring, but it'll be April before there's free ground up there....

Plenty of winter left here.

I was spliting firewood today at noon, and the wind still had plenty of sting to it.

There is a solid eighteen inches of packed ice/snow mix left in the woods. The sun IS stronger, and soon old man winter will be showing signs of weakness.

It`s all good.

There was plenty snow on the ground when we were out shooting today. It was 17 degrees today with wind chill and we only shot a few hours then we had to go inside to warm up...we did come back out and shoot for another hour or so.

About 3 feet of snow pack.  The snow banks are higher than the top of my head here. And 3 degrees right now, so it ain't melting.

North Mississippi got the first snow of the season last night, looks like 2-3" on my deck, hard to tell because the wind is blowing like crazy and it's still dark out. I'll do some deer tracking for fun later if I can find fresh sign.

I've seen maybe three snowfalls in hunting season here in 45 years of bowhunting. February and March are our probable snow months. We average about one measurable snowfall a year.

I know there is plenty at home, but since I'm snowbirding, all I see are rocks, cactus, and the desert flowers coming to life. We don't need no stinking snow!

Mr. bayoulongbowman,
Plenty of snow here and will be for a couple more months.  We usually get one last heavy snow fall the first or second week of May.
Best Wishes

Would you expect there to NOT be snow here? There isn't much tho, the  moose may have an easy winter this year (this area),if we don't get to much more. I'll be looking to poke a hole in one come hunt season.
Just went snow machining yestrerday, didnt get in over my head. ;-)  ;)

A little less than Nor'easter.  Average of 2.5 feet, 12" tonight.  All my shooting is indoors now.  Just starting to be able to think about turkey season.  When I get done here I will be throwing the snowshoes on to walk the dogs.    :goldtooth:

Post by: john fletch on March 01, 2009, 04:38:00 PM
We got 9" more last Wednesday and Thursday. After sttling, that still leaves about 2' average on the ground.  Of course it all came after hunting season, let alone the early archery in Montana.

Deer have made three main trail systems all around our place.  We see about 8 to 10 every day, but evidence of a whole lot more during the night.  Too deep to go up the hill and look for sheds.  Maybe in the next couple of weeks if it warms up.

Right now concentrating on ice fishing before it gets thin.
