85F degrees is overrated. ;D
because you have to put up with all those snowbirds in the winter.

Had occasion to call the U.P. (Michigan) today to reserve a cottage for our summer vacation. They received a foot of fresh snow overnight and it was still snowing like the dickens, as she put it, right then. Nothing like that here, some flurries and quite cold. According to the weather forcasts, nothing to write home about for the next two weeks at least. >:(

I think a big heat wave will come through today and a salt truck will overturn in your yard thereby melting all of your snow by 11:59 pm. Then my April 5 guess will be accurate.  ::)

From what I can see at http://www.weatherstreet.com/local_forecast_files/vermont-snow-cover.htm , you probably have about 15 inches left. Wow. In Montreal the snow is pretty much gone, even after the storm on Wednesday.

You're here, right? http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=365+Pleasant+Valley+Rd,+Bellows+Falls,+Windham,+Vermont+05101,+United+States&layer=&ie=UTF8&sll=49.894634,-97.119141&sspn=27.382728,66.09375&om=1&z=8&ll=43.165123,-72.240601&spn=1.931186,4.130859&t=h&iwloc=addr

I'd guess in 2-3 weeks... let's say April 19, 1:15 pm. ;) Then again, I don't need a gas tank, so I'm just guessing for fun.

By the way, if you have nice '83 CB650 sc parts, let me know. Oh, and I saw a great bumper sticker in MI a few weeks back. It was a GIANT pink ribbon with the caption 'My ribbon is bigger than your ribbon'.  ;D

We lucked out here in Denver today!  There was a big snow storm predicted to come in last night, but it ended up coming in more from the southwest instead of from the south, so the mountains protected us, and we ended up with only a few flakes.  The best part of it is I was scheduled to have a meeting this morning (my day off), but they cancelled it yesterday because of the impending storm! ;D

Got out for a short ride today (about 50 kms) on my CBR but stayed of the highways and stuck to roads that were a little more sheltered and no high speed (and hence less wind chill!) was about 5 degrees celsius....

Got my fingers crossed for you guys that the worm turns and it starts to get a little better out there for ya!

Hey Michel,

If your weather is anything like mine in the next few days, it might turn out to be the 19th after all. :D

I was riding on Saturday, but today was absolutely hellish: exactly the same snow/rain/hail/cats you had. Next few days are supposed to break 10C.
