Title: first taste of winter
Post by: supershingler on October 27, 2010, 10:00:25 am

i woke up this morning to about 3" of snow on the ground here in N. E. South Dakota.  it has been so nice here all fall until yesterday when it started raining and the wind was blowing up to 60 mp. reality hits us again.  at least maybe the ducks and geese will move down from the north and get a couple of days of hunting done this weekend. i always hate the first snow even though i knew it would come adventually.

hope everyone is warm and dry where your at.

You sure weren't alone with that 'weather'!

That 'clipper' or whatever they called it played hell with a lot of areas.
My son in Wisc. got part of his barn roof blown away.

Weird Weather this year I am afraid!

Sure wish I had a video of me trying to carry forkfulls of hay through that stuff. The gust were horrible. But I have pretty good ballest and only fell down once. ;D

Kendall, we had our first snow about a week ago, now today it is 72 degrees and sunny. We sure have had weird weather this year, I hope this last storm isn't an indication of our winter ahead.

woke up this morning and the snow is mostly gone and what is left will be gone my the end of the day.
supposed to be in the fifties and sixties for the next ten days. i guess this is just the weather in south dakota.
makes for some good waterfowl hunting though.

hope everyone has a great day.
