Windy?

Do you folks over the border have this crazy wind? All day here, and rip roaring now. Hope anyone that was out on the water today / tonight had a safe outing. It's really, & I mean REALLY windy here.

We're supposed to get it the next couple of days. This weekend's musky video should be really "extreme"!

Why why why? I am already counting down the days to spring, I HATE COLD. But I am going to ice fish to pass the time. My dad and I are going to build a nice shack complete with a huge skylight.

Perhaps you've heard, but Buffalo NY and some of the outlying areas received 2' of (lake effect) snow over night!!!!

105 miles of the Thruway were closed. There were people calling in on the radio stations at 6:30 this morning from their cars, where they had been sitting, not moving, since midnight. It's the earliest lake effect blizzard on record for Buffalo.

A sign of what's to come???

yes, but is the ice thick enough to drive on yet?

Bite your tongue, Slushy. I'm still trying to adjust to falling leaves, let alone snow and hard water. It'll come, soon enough (except for Joco).
