Out West has been amazingly warm with NO snow to speak of...and there is nothing in the next 7 days either. I heard that at Alta (resort that gets the most snow) it has been the second driest start on record.
What hates it?
Who loves it? (pick me, pick me)
I've been enjoying it. I was in the west desert yesterday (Tintic Mountains) and it was high 50's! I was in Logandale, NV just before Christmas and it was high 60's, low 70's!
I do worry about our water levels for the Summer, though.
We were at 29 this morning but all in all winter has been a real pussy thus far. I don't know why I bought the snow shovel. Not only do I not had the opportunity to use it, it does not fit really well in the back of my Subaru. :facepalm1:
I've ridden my mountain bike to the top of Corner Canyon every day for the past week. It has been awesome, I've had the trails all to myself for the most part except for yesterday when a few others finally figured out the mountain biking was still excellent in Corner Canyon.
It has been in the 80's the last couple days here in AZ. Wearing shorts and sandals outside on New Years Day just didnt feel right.
I have been hearing about some downhill trails with stunts in the Draper area that are currently rideable with this mild weather. Just yesterday while riding drycreek to Bobsled a couple of bikers were telling me about the Draper area trails.
75 here in bullhead today. shorts and sandals the order of the day.
Positively gorgeous here in Southern Utah.....last year about this time we were hiking Zion in the snow. Plan on riding and climbing Saturday.
There are two downhill stunt trails that I know of, plus miles of casual hiking and biking routes.Quote:

I golfed on Dec. 26th in Provo, Utah. That was a first for me.
50 tomorrow in SLC. :2thumbs:
And I'll be riding my mtn bike up Corner Canyon on my lunch hour. :nod:Quote:

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
Looks like we finally got a little bit of the white stuff in my neck of the woods. I've got about an inch on the ground. A nice weekend present for the skiers and boarders.
:snowcloud:Just started here!:snowcloud:
Hope it more than the 1-3" they're callin for!
Snowing lightly all morning long..
I ended up shoveling a couple inches. Still snowing!
Got about 6 1/4" out of this last snow storm at the house in Kaysville. finally! too bad, were not getting a storm anytime soon again...but hey, at least it snowed after a month and half!
My wife finally got the 3 inches she's been begging for :snowguy:

You are lucky to have an easy to please wife :lol8:
Amazing.. So utah Mojave (mojive) tip in St. George is sandals, hoodie weather at worst!! yesh!!
We're exempt from the storm this week in SLC. Too far south. I love living here. Just two hours from Vegas for whatever floats your boat, and perfect winter weather
for sunny hiking. Shnow? when it comes, it too, is only a short drive away. ahhhh:cool2:
I love st George too. However, you guys need to reduce your water usage significantly. Wasting Utahs water - tsk tsk. Fun fact: st. George "uses" (I call it wasting) more water per capita than any other city in the US! You guys even beat Las Vegas in water usage! Yay! Oh wait...that's not something to be proud of...Quote:

I spent the weekend in Mesquite. Was there really that much ice and snow in the Wasatch front?
I was one of the guys riding that you might have seen when we rolled into town. Here is a pict I got back from Chet when they hit Provo.
On their way homeward.
