Say goodbye to your winters in the Midwest.  
 

Queue the climate change deniers is 3, 2, 1…. 

Just got in from plowing, again.

Temps are well below normal, snow fall is way above average, and the lake has frozen over weeks ahead of normal

It's glorious. Sitting in FL watching my son clear the driveway. Groomers are going and the season is ON. Last WINTER was colder and this one is going to be even better.

Make sure to use lots of sun screen. A sun burn makes the first ride a bit rash

Did you go down there to practice for the iron dog?

Snow warning is accurate, whiteout conditions

They're talking about near record lows this weekend.

I just don't understand how all of this is happening.

Washer fluid makes people addicted to it believe stupid shit. All seem to be sledless welchers as well.

well, another morning I had to shovel. We've got a ton of snow already, the worst part is I still have to trailer up to the northern hunting zone to ride, because the trails don't open until hunting season ends, and I live in the southern zone.

What Polaris model are you riding this year? Boost or 9r ?

🥶

And just like that, crickets from the 3rd grader.

I’m sure he’ll be back in action this week when we see a 30 degree high…

All three ski resorts in Teton County, Wyoming, have delayed opening for the season because of insufficient snow and warm temperatures.

As predicted - gone for days when it’s below zero/freezing, and now that something fits your narrative, here you are, like a trained mouse.

You think this is the first time we’ve ever had rain and sleet in December?

3rd grader say what??

We all knew this was going to happen. The coward is so predictable, I think someone even called it out to this date. Weeks of snow and sub zero temps and the one 40 degree day in December and coward boy gets a little courage again what a pathetic boy. Must be a slow day in the shit village.

The cuck bitch who lost three bets in a row to me and was too scared to bet on Duluth for ‘25-‘26 is calling me a coward.

@krom what did Bruce say about New York snow melting soon after it falls?

https://nypost.com/2025/12/16/us-news/millions-to-get-brief-relief-from-frigid-air-in-upcoming-weather-rollercoaster/

With the warm air, the accumulated snow from the previous winter storms, will begin to melt. Outside of Michigan, Minnesota and parts of New England, much of the existing snow is likely to be erased after several days of warmer temperatures and rain. While flooding is not expected, the melting could lead to soggy and slushy ground conditions.

The Climate Prediction Center outlooks favor above-average temperatures across much of the Lower 48 despite occasional shots of cooler air, putting a pause on snow chances heading into Christmas week. For those looking for a White Christmas this year, the odds remain even lower than previously thought.

Oh, wait… what? Why’s there no snow in Minnesota?

Trails are great around here. May suck in Alaska but no one should live in that shit hole

When speaking about Alaska, I think it's trail, not trails.

But yes our trails our great, the one day thawmageddon just solidified the base, probably the best thing for our trails.

It's all going to melt 🤣🤣
