Recent Weather.
« on: April 23, 2017, 05:49:35 PM »
Is it just me or is this weather depressing already, can't wait for the sunshine to come out and clean things up. I'm sick of mud and water and clouds. Screwed us up at work, we have to shut down for at least 3 weeks can't move anything counties out 50% banns on all the roads up here. Nothing but a mud hole at home, it's getting old fast.

No kidding, we still have a few trucks doing the pipe line and they are getting drugged through the mud up to the middle of the doors. The trucks that have come back are just a big mud pile, it's taking  two days to clean the undercarriage. My place is so muddy you can't even try and do anything in the yard, and I'm on high ground. There is not a place or a day I'm not covered in mud either at work or at home. I'd love to feel the warm sun on my face and a little dust in the air.

Crappy wet fall is carrying over to a wet spring.  5" of wet snow again.

        Been a little gloomy for sure and it seems all the nicer days for most of the winter and spring happen during the week and the crap shows up just in time for the weekend.
        Can't do much about the weather but cmon already.  I've been out flyfishing a bit and its getting old having to thaw my darn hands out just so they'll work at the end of the day. 
      Washed the work truck for the first time in a month last week and what a waste of time that was.  Looks like she's gonna start turning around though.  I guess the upside is hopefully the fire threat will be lessened this spring.

The experts were wrong yet again:

http://www.rr.ualberta.ca/en/RenewableResourcesNews/2017/February/Wildfireseasonishere-whatcanweexpect.aspx

This university tool was busy spouting off about a dry spring.  Idiot probably never left his office.  It was so wet last fall we couldn't even get into our original hunting camp.
So many crops were were left out .

Yet UofA fool Mike Flannigan spouts off about how dry it is..... ???

Come on now axe, his findings are based on extensively researched hard science !!

We need these guys to tell us, if it's dry it will burn if it's wet it won't. I'm so glad an extensive amount of my tax dollars goes to support these findings and schools of higher thought.

A lot of fields north of Edmonton still have last falls crop on them.  Yikes. :(

That Mike Flanagan sure sounds like a man of "higher learning".   He must have been experiencing "420 Day" and had some of that "Devil's Lettuce" :) :).
