meh, Tyler's always all in. Nothing wrong with that but he was not too accurate this past winter.

Anyway, over on the lower North Shore it will be just cold rain no doubt.

Can't F**** wait until the first warm and sunny day. :sweat: :wish: :madshoot: :showerpass:
It always snows in December in the Kootenays :clap:

I normally would have enough of a snow brain to say bring it on, but this winter has just had such poor weekend weather that I was almost never able to get any golf in, so this just feels like BS now.
