Accumulating on cars, grass, and roads slightly right now. My girlfriend just called and told me it is snowing by her (Poughkeepsie) so it must be in the Catskills as well. Southern Vermont got some showers too. In Delaware - nothing. Why did I move so far south? I'm such an IDIOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert2 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Snowing in Jim Thorpe today while kayaking. Total whiteout. Stoked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert2 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Nice Snow Stoke Rober..Based on part of your beard ad nose..I will be able to spot you on the slopes this winter and we ca shred the gnar!!! Sorry about the partial picture. Its a cell phone shot and I had to do it real quick and stow the phone and get the mitten back on before dropping the phone in the lake. I have to figure out a better way to take pictures when wearing snow clothes besides removing gloves or mittens to hit the tiny buttons. Its easy to find me on the snow even when wrapped up for weather. Just look for the helmet cam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

method9455 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Wow we actually got a dusting in Newark, Delaware today. A little bit stuck to the ground/roof/cars. Usually never see that before December, if during the 1st semester at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiftySHIFTY Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 He's a pro...he does it every single day, i'm sure he got it under control. And if not...well then that's a bonus adrenaline rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert2 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Aren't you nervous about tipping over and falling into the cold wateR? Cold water is the last thing on my mind. Drowning is first. That's what I worry about. I try to stay out of the water. Most of the lake is no more than 3 feet deep when 100 feet from the shoreline so flipping would smack your head on rocks. If you fall in the best thing to do is walk out of the lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I wouldn't say this to a flatwater kayaker, but since you like to boat in the cold... I think you should try to learn to roll. Go to some roll clinics, or take lessons from Jim Thorpe River Adventures (I don't think they call them lessons, but they are). A skirt a dry top and a roll will keep you from getting in a bad situation where you are walking out of a lake in the COLD weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowboarding is back in full swing next week so kayaking is done until spring time. I know the local kayaking schools. I never considered doing river kayaking and lake kayaking isn't radical like whitewater but keeps a body in great shape and balance until the real fun starts again on the snow. Doing a five mile run around a lake every day for 6 months probably added at least another winter of life to my body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JibHonk Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 (edited) theres no doubt in my mind after seeing robert2's pictures of him at the lake i have identified him as none other than grizzly adams himself Edited November 21, 2008 by JibHonk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schif Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Its coming down pretty steadily and accumulating here in State College. I had to sweep off the walkway in front of the house for the first time all year on my way out to class this morning. No doubt its already covered up again though.

Matt Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 speaking of snow ... 2-3inches left over night in the Downingtown / Chester Springs area. Woke up to a nice little surprise. Too bad I don't have my snow tires on yet or this would have been fun to drive in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrwilco Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 i got 2 inches in sj, pretty weird. i think my area got more snow today then the last 2 winters combined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowbride08 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 West Chester had like 3 inches the morning, and the roads were actually slippery on the morning drive to work. I was totally suprised by the amount or snow, I mean really, we usually don't see this type of weather until January or February anymore.
