This weather really sucks! Seems like we are already heading into what is 100% guaranteed to be the Okanagan's coldest winter is past 100 years. As awkward as this sounds, it snowed here last night but at the same time there was thunder and lightning. Weird...

I'm already wishing it was spring again...Gonna be a long winter of cabin fever. Hmmmmm, maybe Okanagan lake will freeze over for the 3 time in the past 100 years...

Anyone else got a cold winter of bubble trading ahead of them?

I'll trade you rain for cold. Probably at least 36 inches expected by March. And it started yesterday with 2 and more today.

Now you know that if you start talking about the weather you'll screw every thing up for sure.
Last year my son got a fabulous snow removal contract, Vancouver area. He was really excited. He got all the extra stuff and had his machine ready etc, Not one day of snow.
Myself, I kind of hope it gets miserable soon- that way it's easier to talk the wife in to going to Mexico. I just got to finish this little 1700 foot addition first.......
But- if you do get a lot of snow in the Okanagan, we will get a lot of liquid sunshine here on the coast. I guess that is why they call it rain forest.
As long as my garlic doesn't rot. At least you can go ice fishing. Hey, two more months and the days start getting longer
Yeah Spring!
