Monday high of 49 maybe some of the snow and ice will melt so I can get near my boat. I have a few projects I need to get started on.
This weather is killing me both mentally and financially I have had more snow days this year then I can remember ever in one year.

I know exactly where your at. With all the snow you got where did they put it all? The Hudson? Summer time up there is beautiful.

I moved here 26 yrs ago, and I can only remember a winter of a max of 3 or 4 light snows in one year. Of all that time, perhaps 3 o4 snows over 4 ", the rest dusting and going in 1 day. My wife told me she heard on a local tv station we have had 19 snows this year! There is some snow left on the ground now from the one we had a few days ago. To say I have cabin fever is a gross understatement.

Today's high is supposed to be 44, the highest in perhaps weeks and starting tomorrow the highs will be in the mid 50's to the low 60's in the 10 day forecast.
HALLULUYA!

Where (roughly) in the St Lawrence? The Thousand Islands is by far the nicest area I have boated in. Hoping to make it to the North Channel in Georgian Bay some day to compare, but to this point, hanging out somewhere around Gananoque / Brockville / Rockport would be heaven to me.
