To ride, weather is not getting better

[1.21GW]

might snow here at 1700ft. Lots of heavy rain last night, the kind where it looks like it is bouncing off the ground. Didn't have to get the generator ourlt yet.

Maybe better kayaking weather. Catch a buzz and the biggest fish ever.

You poor NorCal guy’s. Can’t remember a weekend the weather kept me from riding down here in the South Cal

[ElDorado650]

This blows.  If it does what is says, snow at my place for 5-8", most riding is snowed out.

We will see, but it stays cold as well, so no good melt during the week.

Dare I post in this thread?   Hmmm, well at extreme personal risk of being flamed, here is some High Sierra Summer dust for your winter day dreaming.  yes another scratch on my Husky at the end of this video.    The self talk at the end, starting at about minute 3.50  is hilariously painful.  "oh shit once you get down how do ya get back up those rocks......  ah Yes I go the way he went.....  Oh shit my leg is stuck and I burnt me new pants  Gdamnit"   :

What weather site is that?  I like the way the data is presented.

[ElDorado650]

It's weather underground.  They are pretty good.  

If you want the real deal - www.weather.gov/sacramento

That was miserable...

felt like being shot with bird shot in the face, winter is here.

 

it it was better in the truck

The problem I have riding when it is like that is I am on the ground a lot.  Logs are extremely slippery when snow covered.

Then, you are really wet and cold after rolling around on the ground a few times.

We need some sun and warm for a few days.

It was barely sprinkling when I got there, I opened the door to the truck and it started hailing, I got all my water proof gear on and it started snowing, ditched the goggles right away because they would fog up. It snowed 4 inches in about an hour. I was laughing, until I had enough. 

It was just nice to operate a dirt bike again

Sweet.  I was stuck riding on my property.  That did not help much.

I need to get out soon, but this weekend is not looking too good either.

What elevation were you at?  Snow is not too deep there.

About 4K. If it wasn’t snowing I’d still be riding

I used to use Wunderground but found them to not be all that accurate when they were relying, in part, on private weather stations.  Like you say, my go to for accurate weather reporting is the NWS.  This is the service a lot of news stations use to get their information.

I like the NWS because you can click on the map and it will give you the weather for anywhere and not just the nearest city.  I think they must combine nearby sources.

Maybe I'll give Wunderground another shot.  I think Jeff Masters sold it.

If you are bored this weekend you can pull the Jeep out and help us rescue a buddies Jeep that broke down and needs to be recovered. It's not too far from you...
