I'm sure some was thinking I was going a little overboard in the thread in the bilge section. So it's been another week, in the middle of May, in Maryland. The last week it never got above 62 and most of the week it was also raining. Sat was nice out .....for about 2 hours in he morning and then a fast front came through and we were in another cold hurricane. I'm still wearing sweatshirts.....in the house .... and couldn't even tell you where a pair of shorts is right now.
I always look forward to the Daytona 500 because March is just days away. March around here is 50/50. 50% it will be nice and 50% there will be a blizzard. April winter is over and spring is here. Mid-May, you are worried about it getting to hot out. This year is killing me.

Just 5 days ago it blew over 100mph also.

Seems to happen alot on top of our cold and windy Rockpile. 5 + times a month it seems.

Woke up this AM to some sleet and snowflakes in the air. Up north got 2-3" snow.

So, the Rockpile has blown over 100mph this AM too.

Agreed, this is complete BS, I'm in Chicago and it's been complete crap here, upper 30's and 40's at night, daytime temps in the 50's. March was warm and it's been downhill from there. I still have not had my boat out this season.

No, they claim the colder temperatures are due to global warming as well...it's a side effect from it, is what they claim.

They definitely want to have their cake and eat it too....or i guess in boat terms...have their holeshot and top speed too.

It's been shotty in KY too. It's either raining and warm or cool and sunny. A few years ago, we were on the boat in April ! ...now, we're hoping it to be nice enough for a long Memorial Day weekend.

Our river (Ohio) is a mess too. 15' over where we like it to be - plus very muddy and full of debris.
