Just got to zero on the front range of Colorado. It MAY get above freezing here today for the first time since Thursday. Theres been snow on the ground since December. Coldest/snowiest winter here in a long time.........

Was -7 in Smith Valley this morning. Glad I've been in AZ for a couple weeks. Not that warm down here either but at least above freezing. I might become a snowbird! :oops::p

I am a little worried about my boat. I winterized it running RV anti-freeze until it came out pink from exhaust and I have two heat lamps in engine compartment and one pointed right at the outdrive. It is also parked inside my shop but I don't have doors on the shop yet so front is open.

I don't know what temperature the RV anti-freeze is rated for. Normally, the coldest it gets down to is about mid-teens early morning and warms up to 40s or higher. This year has just been crazy cold.

You should be good unless it stays below freezing for several days........

Austin was 76 Sunday afternoon and by night fall below freezing. We are in a small ice storm today and tomorrow but it is nothing like last year. Saturday it should be back in the 70's again.

Do you happen to know Greg King? He’s a buddy of mine from your neck of the woods into bad ass flat bottoms too
I think I have heard the name from another boat guy here, but I do not know personally.

Been shopping the Carson Valley hard for the last 6 months to get closer to our kids and grandkids in nor cal, but the weather since New Years has been brutal. Keep seeing "worst in 40 Years" and things like that, but man its been cold!

I was told 10 years ago when we moved here that we gat all 4 seasons. Normally get snow and it melts off in a few days before more comes. The white shit this year has stayed. I have heard about some pretty bad snow from some that have been here.

But we need the snow and rain to fill the lakes, so I will suffer for now to have a good summer boating!!

Awesome small world. Greg and his wife are good people. We drove for the race teams together before we both got out. He keeps telling me he’s going to bring his bad ass boat down to Havasu one of these days to hang with us.

Texas.
Where we need to be prepared for 80 degree weather and 30 degree weather all in the same day LOL

It’s sorta like “surf and ski in the same day” only different 🤣
