-2 F yesterday morning but 33 this morning and raining. I don’t care for this , rather have snow. We had 2’ standing and need some real good cold, the ground and lakes aren’t frozen up yet. The Ice Fishing bug has started already.

The lack of ice thickness and overflow from snow weight are becoming a common event especially on our rivers (https://www.weather.gov/aprfc/IceThickness). Interior Alaska hasn't seen the normal 36-40" ice thickness in April for years.

It's in the mid +20's in Fairbanks. We're liken' it. Santa may need Bushwheels this season.

Got all the way down to 30 here in the NW corner of MT today! It's been in the 40's.... not the usual winter! I'm gonna have to start feeding cows this week, but only because they're finally running out of grass. I just hope we don't pay for it next spring/summer!

Both. We've got 80 pounds of table grapes frozen and canned. Plus about 10 gallons of pinot noir bubbling away.

Just a little vineyard.

The wind blew again. The green grass has made a full yard reappearance for like the 3rd or 4th time here in eagle river (anchorage muni) Alaska almost 50F out.

Looks like tropical Montana is moving north!

**stewartb** · 12-09-2019, 11:13 PM

I don't think it's climate change, just calendar change. September in December!

Get off my lawn!

You work with any of the cold hardy varieties to make Ice wine with?

Oh, and we had slowly built up a foot of snow on the ground but yesterday it warmed up and has been raining. Very little snow left and got into the mid 40s F in the hills here.

I have to admit I needed to look that up. I think I'll try it with the ice berg bunches of Canadice I have.

**CharlieN** · 12-11-2019, 01:42 AM

I helped a guy here start his winery. We clearly have a short growing season in the hills and the relatively new cold hardy grapes offer a rather strong flavor, different really than ice wine since these are designed to grow well after the frost has come in.

I had mentioned Ice wire previously which can be nice but is actually different than to cold hardy plants.

well were hovering around a minus 15-20 below. crime has come to a screeching halt, criminals dont like cold hands, cops dont even get out of there vehicles to write speeding tickets. now if all the big cities in this country could have this for a month or two, mother nature would straighten a lot of things out. i think. and the best part of it all, theres only about 10 percent of the flies and misquitos still flying around outside. whats fun to see though is the bald eagles are coming through now cleaning up the goose and deer hunting casualties, there all over.
