How Did The Rock Survive The Storm This Week?

[edyer]

I was watching the weather you had in anticipation of the blizzard we got Tuesday night and Wednesday. Did you get much ice and or snow? We got dumped with 16 inches of snow and today it was 10 below zero this morning. Can't wait until our annual trip and stay at Oak Hill Resort the first week of April. Hope you folks don't mind my joining in on occasion. Enjoy your forum and would be more than glad to help out anybody coming up here in Michigan to fish when it warms up a bit.

Not much, we lucked out, unlike Grand Lake in OK where docks are sinking. ( See RPS's thread "Sinking Marinas in Oklahoma" under the General Angling discussion ). TR area got about three-four inches of snow at most covering about an inch of packed sleet preceded by a very small amount of freezing rain. I heard of no or very limited power outages but we have three more snow events in the immediate and long range forecast and although the first two look like nuisance snows at most they are already concerned about the event next Wednesday.

Thanks for your offer, someone will probably take you up on it when it get's hot as hades down here. ( Please let that be soon ) !

Right now we need rain as the lake is LOW and dropping daily. Some say that makes fishing easier but it means a lousy Fry survival during the spawn.

Ha ! That "nuisance snow" I was yapping about turned out to be at least four inches in the mid-lake area 'cause the Low Pressure center stalled. Started about Noon Friday and was still coming down at Midnight. More in the forecast tonight into Sunday and then more in the forecast for Wednesday. Darn that La Nina !

Hey, no way ! Don't pin it on me. I'm as fed up with it as anyone.

I'm wearing out the snow blade on the JD keeping our's and the neighbor's driveways cleared. Plus I put in a brand new deck and I'm freakin' out about all the snow, sleet and ice covering it. And, the Marina owners where I keep the boat have not been on the roof of my dock shoveling the weight off. Went down there yesterday and the dock I'm on has the styrofoam completely submerged which dropped the back end of my boat and jammed the trolling motor up under my rail mounted storage box ! They best get up there before the next one forecast for Tue./Wed. hits 'cause the nice melting we had yesterday is gone and didn't take enough weight off.
