My bones and I do not miss those winters. It's phenomenal country, used to be loaded with some of the finest people anywhere mostly because of the winters. They had to stick together to survive them. But the weather itself I do not miss.Maybe he used the paddle as firewood. It gets cold... (show quote)

I am starting to believe that snow birds are smart people. Love the summers here. Winters, not so much.

It's all good here, Bren in the lower 70s and sunny pleasant fishing weather. Y'all enjoy your snow and closed roads, I'll try not to catch all the fish.

We can talk weather again in August, when a hot day here is 84 with a breeze and the humidity is low.

averages at one time around six inches. Over the course of the season 3 to 6 feet with 12 to 20 feet in the mountains. The more the merrier, we need the water real bad.Montezumas revenge.
How much do you average Gw?

Yep, we do ! We had a good winter last year, but a hot, dry summer ! Our summer 'monsoon season' not only started three weeks later than normal, but we had very little rain this summer, monsoon or no ! We actually got more precipitation in those three rainy days last week that we did during the whole monsoon season ! If you folks up north get a heavy snowfall in the mountains, a lot of that run-off flows down into the Colorado River from its many tributaries, which helps alleviate our drought-driven water shortage here in the desert ! Sorry you have to suffer through it, but it's a God-send
to us !
to us !

Just to show how bad this drought has been (it started in the mid-90s), this is how low Lake Mead has gotten since 1994 ! Those wakes are not small boats; they're big powerboats like cruisers and ski-boats ! We've already gotten some decently measurable snow in the north country (above 6,000
ft. elevation) and our two ski areas have been open for several
weeks ! Hope we continue the trend through the winter; we could certainly use it !
