Here in La Crosse Wisconsin last night we were told we were going to get about 6-10 inches of snow. So I wake up early in the morning so I can shovel oh what do we have here a nice 1/2 inch blanket of snow.

yea, I don't give any wieght to the local weather. seems the accuracy is 50/50 most of the time.<br /><br />I use NOAA for my info--more accurate most of the time.<br /><br /> NOAA Weather--National

At least they missed in the right direction Skiuseme. 1/2" on a 6-10" forecast is much better than 24" on a 6-10" forecast...unless the snowmobile is ready to be unleashed :cool: :cool: :cool: 6 more days until the trails open up!!

I agree with gaugeguy. I really loved the weatherman the time I had to shovel 8" of "light flurries"!

What are you trying to say Ladyfish? You don't miss the snow at all? I used to have a similar view when I lived in Encinitas, CA...and to think I moved back east because I missed the changing seasons. Sometimes I wonder about the decisions I have made. :rolleyes:

gaugeguy,<br /><br />I think LadyFish is trying to tease us all. :p <br /><br />She always gets the great weather, lucky LadyFish. :cool: <br /><br />She better be careful, or she'll have all us from iboats moving right next door to her, there in Texas. :D LoL<br /><br />It'll be an iboats invasion!! :D

Didn't Galveston get hit by a couple hurricanes earlier this fall? Anywhoo, I'm up for a party at Ladyfish's, especially seeing she is supplying food, beer, lodging, a band, and airfare down--now that is a deal I can't pass up :D

skiuseme, <br /> The forecast was right about the snow and wrong about the location. I live in the St Paul, MN area and we were suppose to get an inch and have over 6. The storm track was farther north than they had anticpated.

Guess I'll have to load up the bus, and head towards Texas. :cool: <br /><br />Stay as long as we like?? :) <br /><br />I wonder how long it would take me to find a job there? :p <br /><br />Free room and board until then, how can you beat that?? :D <br /><br />Free beer and food too, I'm on my way! :eek:
