What have I done....

Featured Replies

I went fishing Sunday. I watched the Red Sox's 2nd game of the season. I was raking my yard Monday after work. Today I have too clear off my boat of almost 5 inches of Snow. Why do I live in New England?!?

I feel your pain, I live in Wisconsin and our high was 37 on Wed. and it going to be cold untill next Mon. :'( :'( :-/ >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

Its not that bad here in South central PA, but bad enough to really throw a damper on what could have been a great 3-day fishing weekend.  Guess I'll have to resort to house cleaning and liquid therapy.

I live here in Indiana.  Tuesday it was in the high 70's.  Yesterday it was a high of 31 and spitting snow and windy.  It's too bad I'm not rich.  I would pack my bags and move where it is always 75-85 year round.  It also has to have great fishing.  can't forget that.

::) Yeh, but just think about it for a moment. We get the snow and they get the Tornados, Flash Floods, Hurricanes, Earthquakes and then when it does snow in those other places it closes everything down because they don't have the equipement to move it. Aside form all  of that, I get to live next to the Bassmasters rated number one natural bass fishing lake in the US ..... and fish it too! ;D

The snow and cold here has REALLY screwed up my weekend, and quite possibly next weekend.

I was supposed to fish 2 buddy tournaments Friday and Saturday this weekend. The body of water which these events were on was just getting really good. The tournament days were forecasted to have a high temp of 30 and high winds, anyone who has ever been on or around Lake Erie knows, those conditions are downright dangerous. Both tournaments cancelled.....

Now, in anticipation of that happening, this past Monday I went to another lake to do a little pre-fishing for a tournament next weekend (Apr 15). I whacked em, water again was just getting really right, backs of coves were up to mid 50's. The highs are not forecasted to be above 50 for the next 10 days, lows on the 20's and 30's. I'm sure the water temps will drop dramatically and turn fishing into a slow mans game.

I feel everyone's pain. >:(

Yup was near 70 here Tues. ALMOST took the new bass boat out for it's maiden voyage, but balked. Now it's 28, with about 3 inches of snow. Ahh WNY early spring weather..........gotta love it. I have yet to spend more than 2-3 hours fishing yet this year, and only have 1 small bass on the board. Not sopposed to warm up for the next 5-7 days either. Gonna be a stretch to get my usual 150+ days in this year.

Look on the bright side, when it's 100 degrees and so humid you sweat at 6a in the south we'll be enjoying a very nice summer day. Granted it still gets humid here but I can handle this humidity in the summer much easier than what I had in KY.

Got flurries in NoVa today, left for work this AM, temp was 34.  I thought at first that the white stuff falling was blossoms coming off apple and cherry trees... Nope, it was that @#$%ing snow.

Where is this place you talk about ....... Heaven???

Several inches on the ground right now here in western PA, along with 26 degrees and

occasional white outs.  Global warming?... seems to have taken a hiatus.  ::)

Holy moly.  How do yall Yankees put up with that?

Here in Florida, it only feels cold when I open the fridge to grab another beer.   :)

It's no better here in S.E. Michigan. It's 29 degrees with 20 m.p.h. wind with gusts to 32 m.p.h. The tigers game was just postponed because of bad weather.

What the heck happened? Tuesday I was catching bass in my canal. Today I'm wrapped up like an eskimo.......... I guess that's spring in Michigan.

I need a vacation!!!

It was colder than a witches t!t this morning...32 in Front Royal, VA.

I prefer 82 on the lake the other day...

Man this sucks!

32° in SE Michigan.  Didn't stop the Walleye boys.  Saw 20+ boats this morning on the lower Detroit River.

I would laugh it up at you New England guys, however, it is snowing outside here too.  >:(  It was 84 degrees on Tuesday, and now it is snowing.

Darn it.

Yay! More snow here in RI today.  Anyone have a spare room down south?  

>:(I hear ya I had to shovel 12 to 15 inches this morning at 6am to get to work.Then get out of work and finish up.But it was perfect snow for snowball fights and a snowman with the kids :D But the boat is snowed in :'(

Oh, how easily they forget...Anyone remember the fact that snow didn't even start falling in the north east until the middle of January?  With the exception of the great lakes area, it was a pretty mild winter up here.  Now, I'm not saying that I'm a big fan of wet, slushy, pull the trees down snow, but I also didn't get to ski as often as I wanted to at the "start" of the season.  Take the good with bad if you decide to live up here is all I can say.

(BTW, that was just me playing devil's advocate...this weather sucks :) )
