It's a temperature issue for me. Plus if I worked at a station like Gimlley I don't think I could take it. It only snows when it is cold out plain and simple. I don't mind it when it is at my convenience but I do choose the rainy winter and above freezing temperatures. My job has me traveling at between 30 and 40 mph in an open boat. there is nothing that would make me want to do that at -20.
Yea, you have to pick your poison as you can't have it all in this land. On the bright side there ain't many boats doing 30-40 mph at -20 on the frozen lakes here. Lots of Ski Doos going ice fishing though.
