La Nina is back!

Been tracking this "LRC" weather based theory as well, and they are saying something similar, just don't see much support for it through mid Nov. on other sites as yet. Hopefully it will materialize with a little less moisture though. Last year's moisture forced me to the pond for the first time and became somewhat enamored with it. Think it was just chance that it did not get nailed, but tentative plans are to go back!

That's all we need...more friggin precipitation

[toughguy]

I hope to God this is right!!!! Bring it!!! Last winter was a blast. A little less slush on the ice would have been nice but the snowmobiling was the best it's been in years.

That is the downfall.

We had the most snow in the state last year and it was very difficult to ice fish. The lakes were an absolute mess.

Good thing I picked up that plowing job, worst case is less ice fishing, more $$ in my pocket.

Map for next weekend. My pheasant hunt in ND may have just gotten a little "whiter".

*BUMP*

How's that Cooler/Wetter winter goin' for ya?

[Trues]

That's funny stuff!

[CaptainMusky]

From what I have been seeing January will make up for everything we have missed out on so far. We will see but in Oct things were pointing to a slow start so I'm not surprised where we are now, but Jan could be a different story.

About as good as any other LMIT prediction.

[LMITOUT]

Wasn't my prediction. If you happen to look at the graphic it says "NOAA".

Funny this was brought up because I was thinking of this thread the other day as I made my way to ND and back over Christmas, staring at nothing but brown grass.

[MN Mike]

Yeah...... well...... I'm still holding on to a little hope!!!

[Duffman]

Just funnin ya Bud! As always.

[fisherman-andy]

I thought La Nina was cooler dry weather. The opposite of El Nino. Hot, & wetter in the midwest?

[broken_line]

lookin like a cool down in a few weeks

Where are you hearing this? I've been hearing that it's looking like the mild temps and dry are for another few weeks.

It was long range forecasts from early December. They had said that the winter would get started late but when it came to mid January it would come furious and often. Lots of snow and cold. This same type of pattern existed in 2006 where we golfed in Dec and were buried in snow in Jan.

[ENMIFDAD]

My prediction it that on Jan 12th, the temps will dive and the snow will fly!

That is when my buddies and I will leave for our LOW trip. Never fails, over the past 4 years, the temps must average around -15 degrees for our annual trip. Oh well, we must enjoy it if we keep doing it every year!

Always seems to work like that for me too!!

If memory serves, I was still hunting in a light coat for grouse well into Dec. This year, I hung the shotgun up too early it seems.

Since I don't ice fish, these above average temps can stay

Global Warming is a liberal myth.
