Title: Welcome to the great white north!

Are all of you MN, WI, & MI shooters enjoying the weather? In SE MN we have 2-3" of wet slushy stuff being topped off with over a foot of fluffy stuff. Tomorrow it will be 0 deg and 40 mph winds. Should be fun!

 Well i just put on a set of insulated coveralls and shot late this afternoon and tried to pretend i was somewhere in the great white north.. i'm pretty jealous of all the severe weather you guys get up there while it rains and goes through little cold snaps here down south.You don't have to rub it in..  ;D

Yeah, and winter is just getting started, right Dave ?  ;)

I heard Syracuse north to the Tug Hill area got 53 inches of snow in that 4 day storm this past week. A 1/4 of their winter average in just one storm !!!  :o

If it wasn't for global warming we'd really be in snow trouble !  ;D

Darn, 4:45 PM and it's 69 degrees out. Not sure how much more of this we can take...

There has to be some payback for living in a gun-hating bankrupt state that is being overrun by illegals and still thinks gay and green rights are the biggest issues in play (oh, and banning tobacco in public places). The weather is all we got left. I just bundle up and tough it out.

This Marauder rifle is just silly accurate. And silent. Did I mention that?

It got up to a balmy 36 degrees this afternoon in Southeast Wi.  So I got a little trigger time in.  Tomorrow I don't think I'll even get out of my PJ's.  Just crash on the couch with a cold beverage and watch the Pack.  6-12 inches of snow predicted tonight and 40mph winds tomorrow.  Too nasty even for a brat fry!  Nobody will be going anywhere.

Pink, you must be getting a piece of this winter joy down there in IN. Up here, the snow is starting to taper off but the 40mph winds are starting blow the stuff all over *(&^!

Yote, we just got hit with a bit more snow, with more to come.
They're saying three to four inches, but they're only right about 50% of the time on a good day.
Temps are currently only 23 degrees, so nothing particularly cold yet.
Get us down in the -28 range, THEN I'll say we got hit pretty hard.
;)
