about sums up the season we are having in Washington.........

Pretty sad year, but I think you filmed my old blue dodge in that video.
 
We aren't that bad in northern Idaho but it is pretty pathetic when you get really excited about 6" of new "pow". :face-icon-small-sad
 
Looks like the wikipeda definition of Die Hards!

was off to a great start here - riding 10 days before Christmas (@ sea level) with 3' + base until Jan 10 - 2&1/2 weeks of rain cleaned it up ..... close to a foot fell last night ... just need some more to build up a base again.
 
I feel your pain. I live in southwest Colorado. We started out great in November and early December, and then the snow just stopped falling and started melting. We went about 6-7 weeks without any snow I was actually out raking my front and back yard in the 3rd week of January, there wasn't a flake of snow in it and was bone dry.

At last it started snowing yesterday and is supposed to snow until tomorrow. Long overdue, but at least it snowed.
 
This was just released from the National Weather Service out here in California... our "Epic" winter:face-icon-small-fro

SPECIAL NOTE: SACRAMENTO STATICAL DATA WAS USED DUE TO ITS LENGTHY HISTORY FOR RECORDS DATING BACK TO 1849 FOR PRECIPITATION AND 1877 FOR TEMPERATURES. SEVERAL OTHER LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT INTERIOR NORTHERN CALIFORNIA DID BREAK RECORDS, BUT DUE TO THE DETAILED DATA BASE FOR SACRAMENTO DETAILED INFORMATION WAS VERIFIED.
 
I feel your pain. We only have a measly 110 inches here in the Flathead Valley. My arm keeps getting tired from shoveling the walk to my shop. Only been riding since November 8th!

Here come the down-votes! :D
 
That Rush 44, what a card.:face-icon-small-hap We actually ended up with about 18" new last weekend for the best weekend of the year here in northern Idaho but it was kind of unstable with the crust underneath. Still the best weekend of the year, 125 miles of untracked snow for the weekend. Maybe winter is on the way. :face-icon-small-sho
 
I've never raked my lawn before in January. I would have never thought that it was possible to do.

Ditto...ended up with a pile of needles! :face-icon-small-sho
