    I went detecting on January 31st. I found four wheats and a 1952-D quarter. The next day it snowed over a foot, and I don't foresee it melting any time soon.

    Just seems to keep snowing here too. We get a nice two day break before we get another 1 to 3 inches on Thursday.

    Our club outing for February was slated to be this Sunday, Feb. 15. But after quite a few days with temps above freezing, it's going to drop soon. Sunday's high to be just 18, with gusty winds. The hunt was postponed until the following Sunday, Feb. 22. I cannot remember the last time I got out, much of that being busy with job/career and home life. Maybe spring will be better on my hunting schedule!

    Edit: No Feb. 22 hunt, either. We got a lot of snow and some crazy cold temps, at least for this area. Ground is frozen for a while image

    Nearly a foot on it's way, -25 last night in NE Ohio.
    Should be a good season coming for morel mushroom hunting, IF the Spring weather cooperates.

    Passed the 100 inch Mark for snowfall over the weekend. Most of it is still on the ground. Temperature hasn't been above freezing in 4 weeks. Currently-6 with wind chill of -24.
    I did get out one morning this month. Found a cell phone lost in a 6 foot snow pile.

    -30! Oh My.
    Perhaps the freeze-thaw cycle will bring things a bit closer to the surface, is an interesting subject.
    I am just hoping for one more good season.

    -15 here yesterday, but low to mid 30's today. I would not throw in the towel on Spring. I read about the weather in 1936 (I'm into natural science too) and we had a very cold / snowy Winter, but a brutally hot Summer that year.

    I have a solution for the global warming scientists: Make them into Elf Street Broenes (put on their bathing suits and take a dip in the ocean) in the temperatures we are experiencing. Coldest spot in my area yesterday: Mt. Washington NH checked in at -35.

    Better still, the global warming people could put their tongues on a steel pole, and they will still sound about the same after they get unstuck. image
