Big Snow Storm???

I don't understand the craving of French Toast that's associated with heavy snow storms. :rolleyes: Everyone rushes out to get bread, milk and eggs. :unsure:

Here's another thing: Meteorologists go to college for predicting this stuff and have all kinds of high tech equipment at their disposal and yet they can't seem to get better than a 50% prediction. I can get that by looking out the window and a coin toss. :cool:

All snow storms are subjected to the "penis theory":
You never know when it's going to come or how many inches you're going to get. :sneaky:

I would love to have a job where I'm on National TV, indoors (warm & dry), wearing nice clothes and making predictions that effect millions of peoples' lives. Then when I'm horribly wrong, I suffer no consequences what so ever and walk away without so much as a scratch....and some how people still listen to their predictions. :ROFLMAO:

I'm confused, is a weathercaster or a politician that you want to be?

I literally got cussed out a while back for making a joke about how I should have been a weather man...

I didn't know that the lady's ex husband was a meteorologist. After she let me know exactly what she thought about my joke she then explained how meteorologists are very smart and have to be married to their job. If they miscalculate and make wrong predictions tons of people could die.
 
around here the weather is a crap shoot any more. we check the predicted wind direction before deciding on what areas we are going to hunt only to find a different wind direction when we get there.

the weather channel on the internet has one prediction, the app on my phone has another and the one in the paper is useless :)

i think its better just to ride around, get out, check the wind and hunt or keep going

the only problem with that is about 50% of our landowners like to be notified if we are hunting that night so they can expect to see a vehicle on the property. a lot of them like us to park near the house or barns.

I hate to say it now since I'm a seasoned pro, but a lot of times I just wing it. It's crazy because I can stand in one spot and get hit with wind from every direction within an hour.
 
Here in Ohio, we have what I've come to call the "2 Minute Warning", when it comes to an approaching rain storm.
Once it starts raining it'll hit hard and be a downpour for about 3 minutes and then it'll stop. When it stops you have 2 minutes to gather your gear, get outta there and back to your vehicle or you're going to get drowned in an absolute downpour. :oops:

My neighbor is from Nebraska and he said he'd never heard of anything like that, about rain. Sure enough, he was in his tree stand, last fall and it started raining. He thought about toughing it out, then he remembered what I had told him about the "2 Minute Warning" and he decided to get down and start walking. :unsure: Apparently, he wasn't walking fast enough to make it back to the house and his 2 minutes ran out. :ROFLMAO: He picked up the pace and made it back to the house without getting totally soaked.
