I have been thinking about snow as well. In fact I bought a 1997 Skidoo Summit about a week ago specifically to get me and a friend up to the Plains of Abraham on St Helens for snow kite adventures this winter. I live really close, so look for me up their a lot if it pans out Cool

Whoa.....whoa....whoa amigos.........as much as kiting just might be better on frozen water the liquid season is still booming so please save the white porn for Nov/Dec when we are all bouncing off the walls and trying to figure out field trips to Fairfield. Very Happy

Good stuff anyway.

moderate el niño predicted for next three months.... considering an epic pass and crossing fingures Tahoooo get the storm track... but el niño is not the friend to northern continental us snow chasers... but then again last season started with a bang but didn't get a second dump till later December, so if only is the next three months then it not so bad..... but

el niño = warmer and dryer Sad

Maybe. Last year was supposed to be a La Nina & a total repeat of the previous year - which would have been epic. Listening to long range forecasters is a lot like coming home trashed and not turning the light on before you piss. You may be hitting the bullseye but there's a good chance you're pissing in the closet. Seems like the "pros" get it right 1/3 years. Maybe I'll even believe in man-made GW when they can predict with accuracy more than 3 days in advance. Rolling Eyes

1 for certain thing about weather - there'll be some
