Meteorologist Terri DeBoer just included the phrase "accumulating snow amounts" in her forecast for next Thursday and Friday here for West Michigan. Kick Mother Nature in the ass and lets get that lake effect snow machine fired up already..........

No kidding! :banghead: Keep doing that snow dance up there CatGirlTammy.
:fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

I saw that too, CGT. I'll be watchin' Bill and Craig all week to see how this plays out. Let's hope this works 1 fluffy per inch! :div20: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

I'll see your Fluffys... and raise you 6 more.. :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

I have the sleds loaded already.... just waiting for the snow..The wait for the first ride is killing me. :tease: :frech32: :banghead:

Let me join in all the fun! I have already ridden! :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

That's not what John Dee is saying.

And I hear John Dee is the most "accurate" weather man.

Thats what the long range forcast was showing yesterday. This morning was a different story. Let's all hope!

I'll see that 6 and hit with 3 more. :beerchug: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

:beerchug: <fingers crossed

As much as I want to believe Terry and Bill, I could care less if we here in Grand Rapids gets any snow.......however, snow north of Cedar Springs.....BRING IT ON!!!!

I hope they are right. Maybe I can get over to that side to ride a little. I have always wanted to ride on the western side. :beerchug:

Hey don't forget about the Tri Bar :beerchug:

I see your six dancing snowmen :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: and I raise you 3 happy bananas :banana: :banana: :banana: !! We need snow. but we need this before we get too much snow!!

You're welcome over this way anytime Gary!

well I stay in tell I see the RIVER then Im all IN :lol2:

John Dee still says nope..

We need somthing.Looking at green grass in dec,Just look sugly to me.
:fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :celebrating: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

I almost mowed my grass again today..

Oh no, it better snow or they are going to go broke up there at The Hideaway without you. :burp:




Lucky bastard. :banghead:




You sure have had your poker face on lately. Don't worry Scube it will come. Santa said you been good.

Hate to piss on everybodies parade but I'll believe John Dee before anybody. And his
10 day forcast is still not showing no more than a "possible" 1-4 for the U.P. and some
of the upper lower. :banghead:

What I don't get is if John Dee is so great, why haven't the tv stations spent their money on the equipment he has, or trained in the methods he uses?? Is he that much more accurate than meteorologists??

Weather is nothing but a best guess by anyone, and always subject to change.

:beerchug: <good thinking though

Question it all you want D. Try and pay attention to his forcast this year and decide for
yourself. I have seen his forcast being more accurate than my local weathermans so
his(JD)is who's I go with.

Besides, I am no weatherman, so I guess I can't answer your questions. :frech32:
And really, what does it matter??

Relax,when its good I'll let you know.Right now it sucks! :banghead:

My question is,Why was I the only one at the ACSC party tonight with a HCS shirt ?????

Guys, to me, be it my local weather men/women or John Dee, they are never right on the majority of the time. They can have all the latest and greatest equipment to date and cant predict what will happen with any real accuracy after 2 days out. 2 days is even pushing it most of the time...hell sometimes the same day or hours ahead of time is way off!

I personally think they still dont know enough about weather in General to be able to predict like we think they should. The weather information/computers/technology is only as good as the people who designed it.

the problem nowadays is all the networks have to try and scoop each other with the next " big" storm.they start 2-3 days prior, about "winter storm advisory", and all the radar and nexrad bullshit for the '' chance '' of 1-3 " of accummulation. and if there '' might be '' 3-6" possible then they start interupting programs and scrolling storm warning info across the screen. they try to hype weather patterns forming 10 days out in siberia that could, might, potentially pose a problem.
hell I remember when I was a kid, you knew you were in a snowstorm when the national gaurd would advise you not to leave the house because the plowtrucks were getting stuck trying to keep the hiways open.
now , we get an inch of snow and they cancell bingo. I dont get it

:div20:
When my bad knee starts to really hurt, I'll let you know. it's going to snow a shit load and I don't viper or digital doppler to know that. :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol:

When my hip starts to hurt? better move to the second floor :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol:

just keep doin the dance !!!!!!!!! :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

That is just not right. :banghead:

it seems to me that john dee is more conservative than the folks on tv. It seems like people on tv always over do things.

john dee certainly seems more realistic....

:banghead: Yea well im depressed cause last weekend at this time i was in the up , put 147 on , now im sittin here gettin a little capt. in me knowing i have to cancel my trip to gaylord for newyears !!!!!

LETS HOPE

WTF? Captain sails to Gaylord too...No snow means more booze! I'm sure that Starvation Lake will be hopping snow or no snow!

I know I'm going to get bashed for this. But who is John Dee?

ONLY ONE PROBLEM WITH THIS POST.... OUR WEATHER TEAM HERE IN MICHIGAN HAS A HARD TIME TELLING WHICH WAY IS UP. LET ALONE KNOWING IF IT WILL SNOW OR RAIN....... LETS HOPE FOR ONE TIME THEY ARE RIGHT.... :beerchug: JUST FOR GOOD LUCK I WILL RAISE :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: ...HAVE A GREAT X-MAS TO ALL...

John Dee

He is meteorologist who lives in the Keewenaw peninisula.

Does anyone else in the lower pennisula get pissed when they never talk about the weather in the UP? I mean WTF, its all michigan!! :banghead:

No

Shame shame Prowler! :tease:

Calling for rain in Mancelona area Thur and Fri.

yeah it sucks. i have to get online to see whats going on up there. i think my local weather should give ALL of michigans weather and trail reports every night. or we need a snow channel for michigan and the winter. snow and snowmobiling 24-7. plus you can look online but can you trust the souce that is telling you to come upand ride. i have been screwed a few times. one time they said there was lots of snow i drove 7 hours up no snow.

THINK SNOW

:fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

:burp:

Wow, that would suck.

I would be pissed also.

-Duane

After that .......In the 15 day forecast the Highs will be below Freezing! :div20:
all's we all can doo is doo a snow dance! And we all better damn doo it! :div20:

Okay, here ya go...

I MIGHT DO IT BUT I WON'T DOO IT. LOL :beerchug:
:beer:

THINK SNOW

:fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy: :fluffy:

I followed Johndee closely last winter and compared to the Weather Channel and local weather he is the best forcaster by far IMO. I don't know that he has any equipment that they don't have - I think he's just good at it. I'm not saying he is 100 percent accurate but he is as close as it gets. :div20:

John Dee is by far the best, he is the only one that predicts lake effect.

And for snow pray to Henkiluka (sp?) the indian snow god.

your not the only one canceling!....im probably going to end up canceling my day after christmas trip from big bay to copper harbor...glad i got to ride in munsing this past wknd put only 160 on just rode saturday thats all... too much :burp: sat night and couldnt make it out sunday :frech32:

:smilielol:
It's heiki lunta and it's finnish, not indian

ARRRRGH!!! :banghead: Now it's back to rain!

Although, they are calling for cooler temps by the weekend. We might get lucky and have the ground start to freeze.

Ok! The only thing I did this past weekend. Rack the leaves in the front yard for the last time this year (I Hope) and take care of the kids. :banghead: I really need to get out into some of the white stuff.
Why is it so warm?
