good grief

In '95 we got around 10" of snow on the first or second day of pheasant season. Then the whole winter of 2000 we had a ton of snow. We killed a dozens of yotes that year by tracking them, and I remember that it nearly killed us to track one a mile or two in all that snow. In fact, one day my buddy did have a mild heart attack dragging a yote to the road and we had to rush him to the ER. That scared the crap out of all of us.
Pretty much been winter droughts since then, but no more heart attacks either.

Actually I was serious. Don't want to hijack Muddy's post but it's interesting to watch home movies my dad shot of my family when I was a little kid 35-40 years ago. Our Iowa winters use to be WINTERS. We have movie clips of snow literally higher then the car in our driveway or ditches being so full of snow us kids could walk over the barbed wire fence. We haven't had that much cold and/or snow in at least 25 years.

Educate yourself. Do a search of average tempatures, snowfall amounts, etc, over the last 50 years, you will see that there is no significant change.

To try to educate myself I googled average temps and snowfall amounts and came up with a bunch of info that nothing pertaining to weather in our area. The only website I found that had Historicle Weather Patterns in it was going to tell me the weather patterns for the last 75 years but for a fee. Didn't want to pay anything to try to prove you wrong. Wasn't worth it. What website did you get your info from? (Not trying to be a smarta$$. Serious question.) All I am saying is we have not had that deep of snowbanks since '83-'84ish???
