Just checked the on line weather site for Dillon, Montana before I head out for an evening Hunt!
Its cold.
The high today is/has been 11 degrees!
The one hundred year average high temperature for this date is 52 degrees.
So its 41 degrees colder than normal for this date!
I say screw you algore.

Well, it was 88 down here today. Sweat City when you're slinging a chainsaw...we should split the difference?

I filled my elk tag on Monday, right before sundown, outside of White Sulphur Springs in Meagher County. I was able to gut the elk that evening and loaded it into the truck to take home in the morning. When I got up at sunrise, the elk was frozen solid, and still is. I think it was 10 degrees Monday night and hit below zero in town last night. I love snow and cold, so I'm not complaining...if this is global warming, I'm all for it.

Saw on the Billings weather report last night that Montana is on track for the coldest year in recorded history.
Ya think maybe the solar minimum has more influence on weather than mankind?

Remsen: Good for you on the Elk harvest!
It was cold yesterday as well but I was to busy to check the computer for the facts.
Enjoy that Elk meat.
One of my friends got his Elk Sunday and he gave me some back strap!
I am letting it age another day of two.
Was 10 below zero that morning where they Hunted.
Wish me luck.

Good luck, VarmintGuy, and that's a heck of a friend! I don't think I've ever seen so many trucks with elk in the beds as I saw on Monday between Great Falls and Livingston. No idea whether this is a great year for Elk or whether folks are just getting lucky, but I sure like it.

Projected low tonight is 2 and tomorrow night -7. I doubt it will get that low, but there is a ton of snow here in NW Colorado. Have delayed setting up camp for one day to let it get a little warmer.

Imagine how cold it would be if it wasn't for Global Warming................

In the 50's here today. 40's tonight I'm worried I might have to cut the grass agin. Well- not really - I cut it two days ago to remove the dog chit camoflaging leaves. But the grass is still green, bnut not growing much.

It's fuggin November, for Pete's sake! In Alaska (as elsewhere).

Clear skies tomorrow - some grouse gonna die just after dawn!

It really isn't that cold here, lows around 10F but the wind blew about 30mph all day so it felt cold!

We're 20 degrees below normal the next couple days. 10 tonight. It's dry, though. We could use some precip but there's none in sight for at least 10 days.

Climate change.... how depends on location, it may be. Then there is mere "weather"., seasonalably, or by decade, or century.

Adapt or die!

Personally, I'm enjoying the "climate change" here from 40 years ago.

Fug ya'll! smile
