-22 was the low last night. We got up to -1 today, but we have a 25-30 mph wind. A slight ground blizzard going all day. I am ready for spring. [Linked Image]

I'm not. I love hunting and trapping too much so fall and winter are my favorite times of the year. Spring is not terrible but I despise summer. I'm in the South though.

canebrake we are at apposite ends of the weather spectrum. We have had plenty of cold and snow in the last two months. When you add the wind to it, it takes the fun out of it.

Very ready. A little tired of below average temps, snow, and am ready for green grass, fishing, and baseball.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Terrible weather here also, -35 to -45 with wind chill. Snow drifting bad with wind conditions. Looks a lot worse here then the picture you have up. LOL

We have had below normal temperatures and snow too. It didn't start out too bad, but the last two to three months have been a little more than I want to endure. I am going to be glad to see it melt hard. .

Same in northeastern South Dakota. We have now had one day where we reached normal average high temperature in the last 2 months. We were just 16 below today though so a regular heat wave compared with you.

True, our winters are extremely mild compared to yours. We've had some lows in the 20s but no snow. With the heat and awful humidity our summers are terrible +P.

It is early yet. Typically I have snow on the roads in the forest a month from now, and cant access good beaver trapping grounds. That's normal for here.
