I think that means it was a warm winter and the only thing I will bet on is that next winter will be different.

Personally I'm glad. NW Indiana had record moisture in December and again in Feb. If it had been colder we would still be digging out.

It all averages out December of 2000 was the coldest in 85 years.

Global warming is BS! Just a fluke winter. Lake George didn't freeze anywhere that was safe! Lookin' forward to working on the boat and getting it dialed in!

I Snow Plow in the non-boating season to support my boating habit. This year I don't know if I am going to get my performance fix. Sucks to be me. I do have a plan however, to slowly relocate capital from the family unit to support my habit!!! I know I'm addicted. I'm not going to a rehab center just yet, I can handle it!!!!

Unhappy

Ironman,
I did the same thing, bought 2 sleds. I also washed my car on the way into work so you can bet it will rain today

I'll have to agree, this was/is a warm winter.

I know that Florida doesn't get cold weather like the northern states but I only had to use the heat for about two weeks this season which is unusual. I've been living here for 14 years and don't remember one this warm.

not unusual to have a warm winter, greenwood lake didn't freeze either, but I'll call it global warming when I don't have to winterize the boat!!!! and I hope next year some else buys a sled that's why I didn't buy one cause if I did the earth would shift on it's axis and NY would be a desert
