90+% certainty, El Nino.

[Laufen]

I was just listening to a story on NPR about the forecast of the El Nino for this year. 90%, which is basically absolute certainty in meteorological circles. Not only that, but this could be the strongest El Nino in recorded weather history.

So, what does this mean for the Southeast? Colder temps, and more precipitation. Well, we've been warned. It might be a good idea to begin thinking about the emergency kits for your vehicles, and looking over those generators before fall.

I love a hard winter. Makes it a pain to get to work and keep the animals fed but its still fun.

Bring it! It only sucks if you live in a crowded metropolitan area.

Eh... Unless the world ends, I am good.

It's not even bad then either...especially if you work from home.

Working from home < riding 4wheelers, drinking, and making redneck snowsleds in the pastures.

I've done pretty much all of those things in my neighborhood after a big(ish) snow. btw, the hood from a 1960's dump truck makes a great two man sled, but they have shitty brakes.

Up north we used to use the empty road salt plastic bags. Those are freaky fast on packed snow.

Word.


OK is a relative term... Lol

Sliding down your driveway < pulling sled at 40mph over hills and down valleys on 300acre pasture.

Next time try a bunk feeder. They have a tendency to roll, but that just makes it more fun.

Down the street behind a four wheeler, and into the baseball diamond. Nobody goes out when it snows, they're terrified of it.

Through the woods behind 4wheeler on sled hammered drunk dual wielding AK pistols and shooting like a mad man.

Top that!
