The last 10 years have been filled with media statements supporting and opposing the possibilities of global warming. Here in Minnesota and North Dakota all of the Lake and river levels have risen to record heights, they are not going down. We flood nearly every spring and now we have NO SNOW. On the other hand, the weather patterns that have been recorded during the last 100 years or so actually show this as part of a pattern that could in fact mean we are cooling down.
Well we may find that the scientists are too smart for their own good, or they may be right, but then again if they are right, which ones do we listen to?
Well, being a student in geology, I have bad news, temps are about 7 degrees colder than normal right now if we look at the big picture (last couple million years) but weather patern's are not predictable. I've seen weather models that predicts that the effects of global warming would stop the golf stream from going north which could bring forth another iceage but there are also models which predict that Canada will be a nice hot vacation spot in february in some thousand years or so. Major changes in weather takes a long time and we probably won't be alive to see the results so the only thing we can do is hope for the best and that all that time doing the snowdance wasn't for nothing.

right on, like who cares as long as it snows. the more we talk about crap like this we are attracting butt pirate rights groups.[/b][/quote]
LOL!!!!
If I had enough snow to ride I would not be posting either. I think ac is right about the unpredictable weather. I try to watch the penn state weather when I can The weather proffesors are the ones who give the weather and educate you at the same time. It is one of the schools that teaches meteroligy. I do know this is a lousy winter for snow.
The world was once a big fireball with no humans, it was once a big iceball with no humans, it turns into a moderate place with humans and now they say we cause the earth to warm up? Whatever!
The world is thousands of years old and we have been recording weather data for 100 years, come on how in the [email protected] do they know that global warming is taking place...
As I type this it's -32 F there isn't a lot of snow but the ground is covered and some of the drifts are ten feet high. Unfortunately the snow is also about as hard as styrofoam.... the machine was running over 140 F tonight (a bit warm since the coolant is normally around 125 F) when I went to get ice for our drinking water.
Hello everyone, I recently bought a 2015 polaris indy 550. I want your guys opinions on these sleds. I’ve heard the ones with the edge chassis were unreliable but I think the newer ones are more reliable correct?
We tried the group meeting last year and nobody showed but the breakfast was a hit. Anyone up for meeting again this year before the chaos begins? I will probably be coming up with Mark and Dave and going to Big Boy before we get there so if anyone wants to join us here is your invite.

I have a 2002 MXZ 700 RER Sport with Boysen reeds and MBRP can. I ride in temps from the teens to low 30”s too me it seems like it runs rich. What is my stock jetting and should the jetting be changed for the kids? If so to what?
I am sure the Thundercat is one....but what else is a fast sled.
I have a v-max 4, and now want something faster.
Please tell me what years to keep an eye out for also.
Thanks.
It wasn’t long ago that we were at the Wawa Motor Inn, just north of Sault Ste. Marie, sitting in front of a warm fire after a day of boondocking in Northern Ontario backcountry. Read More >>
