I'm really disappointed with the forecast.

Today's the best day of the week and I'm locked in the office. Its 50 degrees (albeit cloudy).

For my weekend, rain on Saturday and then the temperature drops into the 20s on Sunday.

Poop.

I know how you feel, it’s raining at least one day out of each weekend, and we were barely able to play only one round, go to the beach in the cold, grabbing one sunset before the rain came along...I mean look at those ominous looking clouds 😩

Hey it might get to 60 deg F in Ohio this week, rejoice!

About to get hit by a bomb cyclone blizzard! Sounds like it could be really bad, so I'm hoping that posting here jinxes it.

Too late for me.

I'm locked in here. There is a commode in the corner of the room and they occasionally slid some food under the door.

Hi folks,

I'm in southern Quebec (shoot me now) and am dying to play.  So, anything open in the Boston, Hartford or Albany areas?

Not Boston. We still have snow on the ground.

Thanks for the reply...

Milwaukee Area to hit 58* tomorrow March 14th. Then go back down into the 30's for the weekend.

Now here comes the roller coaster weather.

I can't think of a way to put the words bomb, cyclone, and blizzard together in any way that might indicate something good! Amazing how the weather folks keep coming up with new terminology.

They don't call March the "cruelest month" for nothing. Speaking of cruel, I was hiding in the basement for a while this evening during a tornado warning. After it was cancelled, I came back upstairs and got back online. I was sitting at the computer when I heard my cell phone just go crazy! I look at it, and it's the tornado warning that was issued at 8:48PM. It was 9:40PM by the time it rang through! Glad I had my TV on and heard the tornado sirens go off about an hour earlier!

Drove past a couple of driving ranges today and the lots were full.

Well.  That bomb cyclone definitely put a damper.  Good thing I had to leave the "path of destruction" for work.  I hope all that snow is gone by the time I get back.

My brother in Breck said they got 6' last week prior to the last snow storm. 

[IowaGreg]

We're having  warmer weather now, so all the snow is melting !!!!!!!!!  Wohooooooo  With as much snow as we got and the recent rains, I may be going to work in my canoe pretty soon.......  Already have to take different routes due to flooding.  I'm well past ready for the courses to open back up !!!!!

Hey!  I used to live in Breck!  As a ski bum, of course.  Now I'm a golf bum.

I guess I've gotten so unbearable, I broke a lamp swinging in my living room, my wife is starting to look at weather reports to see when I can go play. 😏

I just got an email notification from Two Oaks North in Wautoma, WI. They will open for play Friday and Saturday (weather permitting), 3/22 & 3/23. We played there in February in 2018 and there were a few holes closed, some wet and muddy areas, but overall if you kept it in (or near) the fairway, it wasn't too bad. I expect about the same this weekend. Forecast is 42* and sunny Friday, and 51* and sunny on Saturday. You can check their website for details and contact info. I'd call ahead just to be sure.

Just received an email from a local Muni, Green Oaks.  They are open with carts available (although I suspect it could be cart path only).  Our corner of the Mitten is still very muddy and damp.  High temperatures are in the 40's and 50's.  Small snow piles remain where it was piled high or is sheltered from direct sun.

I am excited.  Thursday will be the day!  I do not know where but I will be on a course, walking 18.
