sorry fireguy but Tucson AZ here-we have summer & spring here-2 days of fall and 4 or 5 of winter-just had 80 for a couple weeks,now down to mid 60s (brrr)summers comming and will have 5 months of 100+ so I gonna be complaining in may-and through sept.lived here all my life so pretty much used to it.
 
Here in Wisconsin this is the most snow and cold weather I have had at my house in the past 25 years global warming my a$$.
 
Been a good year here but cabin feavor is getting to some folks. We're around 135% of snowpack as we enter our snowiest month.

As for Colorado weather, it was 71 on Sat and I was out smoking doing a couple of briskets because I knew what was coming on Sunday. Woke up Sunday to 25 degrees and a few inches of snow. By days end, got about 4-5 inches and the high was 35 or so but lots of wind. Some places had blizzard conditions.

Today, high of 42, lots of sun and I finished shoveling the drivway and walks.
 
Right on TH... DL, just rub it in dude... Glad Im not alone...
Well wont be long and Hunting, Fishing, mowing, bbqing, Golfing, Drinking Coldies, and building my new garage(toy box) will be in full swing, I hope.
 
Cabin fever for sure. Can't wait to watch the thin blue smoke while floating in the pool with a couple of cold ones. But that won't be for a few more months, at least. BRRRRRRRRR.

fireguy, It has been rough here as well. Wife is down more than ever this year. (her 7th yr in Meeechigan)
 
yesterday 69 at noon 12:30 59 1:00 thunder and heavy rain 2:00 49 rain 3:00 39 rain 6:00 34 heavy snow this is kansas have it all in on day it just goes all up in smoke gotta love it
 
I've got it too but it won't be too long and the river will be thawed out enough to get the boat out and only a month and 8 days away from spring turkey season.
 
I've got it too. Seems like it gets worse every year the older I get, no matter how the weather is. We've been getting teased with some nice 50-60 deg days, then slapped in the face with teens and snow again. I always view March as the month of MUD. Ole, thanks for the reminder on the turkeys. I can't wait for the end of April for that reason alone.
 
Ain't trying to rub it in, but you asked! It's 12:35 AM in Tampa, 66 deg outside, I'm in shorts and a tee, got the windows open and the ceiling fans on high
 
naw thats not rubbing it just a little jab save the rubben for the good food. or maybe just rubben salt in the wound???

Ready for spring here to.....Although it has been a real bad winter here.........But it has been bad enough......Getting sick of the yo-yo effect with the temps......One day it 40 or 50 the next its -20............Ready to get out and be warm.......
 
Don't worry about fishing. I spent 5 hours after work doing so yesterday and the bite was sad! They should have been feeding hard before the front that came through.

I agree that cabin fever has taken over here in MN. I awoke to another 2-3 inches of snow again this morning and it's still coming down. The weather person is talking about an overnight low of -1 for tonight and then -9 for tomorrow night. I guess all I can do is just think of a few things we have planned for the coming months. About a month from now the wife and I will be going to the NASCAR race down in Fort Worth Texas. In June we will be going salmon fishing over on Lake Michigan with my oldest daughter and her husband. Hope to bring back some nice fish for smoking.

Until then I guess we just have to grin and bare it and try and get a few smokes in.
