We should reframe climate change as an attack on winter recreational activities. Then Republicans might actually give a shit about it.
“Oh, I’m not worried about climate change. But I’m very concerned about the impending demise of snowmobiling.”
“How will the homeless freeze to death without cold winters?”
ND we use both. I can’t even say what is more common.
NJ here and at no point could you drive on lakes. It doesn’t get that cold. Most of the winter you cannot skate on ponds.
Only ever done this in an empty parking lot after a few inches of fresh snow
You are missing out then, frozen lakes are so much fun.
It has been a long time since most of those places have been cold enough, long enough, to have a lake become that solidly frozen. It has been 30+ years since I have seen this happen in the mid atlantic.
I’ve lived in the mid Atlantic my entire life and have never driven on a frozen lake.
I do my donuts in parking lots that haven’t been salted or plowed yet.
back in the 90s there was a couple times lakes in western PA/NY froze over enough people were out driving on them.
