I have been busy with a website contract the past couple weeks, so my participation has been much lower. I HAVE been visiting almost every day or every other day though to make sure it wasn't broken

You might want to read up on climate change.

In all seriousness though, snowfall in our climate has always been marginal. A couple degrees cooler in the winter...we can easily average 100cm+. We are already seeing the impacts of a few degrees increase in our average temp with much smaller yearly snowfalls and major events spread out even further.

Yup we're all still here. Not a lot of posting, after all who wants to read, (or post) sunny again today with some cloud everyday but I checked the users online in the past 24 hours and most of us are checking in regularly. So, "Hello everyone! Hope you're enjoying the sunny weather!"

Fingers crossed he's wrong... Unfortunately, I think we couldn't see warm weather until the end of June.

Hey guys, it's Antlerman. I'm done with summer since it doesn't look like any thunderstorms will be coming our way.

Now I just want snow!

As long as our province isn't on fire literally this year, it's all good! Ya, it's snowing on the Coq now too. Fun stuff!
