Seriously... w t h.

We usually get together for memorial day weekend with relatives and camp in the southern Utah mountains. There is still 4ft of snow where we camp right now.

We had a major snow storm hit spots yesterday, 10" of new snow on the fish lake highway. Below freezing temps.

Most mountain roads are still closed to snow, 4-10ft deep in places. UDOT claims it could be mid July before they can open some major mountain roads that have been closed since last fall.

Ugh... so want to get out camping and enjoying the outdoors! Cabin Fever continues...

one word. Globalwarming.

On the up side, I still haven't turned on my sprinklers yet.

Good thing for all the Glo-bull warming ,,,, hard to tell how deep it would be without it,,,,,,

We got 95-to 100-deg heat factor down this way in the southeastern states . ,,,, And just think summer is a month off......

Haha yea my wife was talking about that last night. Still havent put in the garden yet... been too cold.


This was from my wifes cousin, sent it to my wife. This was taken yesterday north of Loa, glad we decided to call of our trip. Figure below freezing and then add on the wind-chill towing your rig... unless its fully enclosed and heated, I'll bet alot of people froze and broke plumbing.

WOW...seems like you have a late winter mate. We are starting to cool down here after a summer that didn’t want to ease up.

Cabin fever is a pain...I’m chomping at the bit to get out myself but my knee still isn’t up to it yet...getting there, but not quite yet.

At least you’re not mowing lawns and weeding gardens...and you can still get your snowmobile out for a fun day mate.

Don't worry, it's just weather - not climate change.
So says those who believe in global warming... go figure

For us, it has been rain...lots of it. We have had about 3/4 acres of our yard (3 acres) underwater since February. Bad enough that we have a couple of Mallards cruising the water pretty much daily and occasionally Canadian Geese drop in to check things out. Ground is so soggy that I can't mow within 20 feet of the standing water. Looks like hell.

DallanC,

Sorry about the snow this late in the season. I hate it when that happens. All the best...

Well, winter has hit with a vengeance in our southern states...hail, high winds, snow...and would you believe a dust storm. They have had 60cm of snow in our snowfields in the past week or so which has allowed the snowfields to open a week early.

It’s not too bad here in Brisbane, although even though I’m still in shorts and a t-shirt, I did have to put a tracksuit top on at 6am after jumping out of a warm bed.

Great Snow! Summer is only 3 weeks away!

Winter is cummin...
