Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the cold or the snow. But it has been below 0 almost every morning since December. I think it was just above 0 when we had the big snows around the holidays and only a few days since then.

We're in the tail end of a warm snap here; the thermometer in my truck said 48 yesterday afternoon. Don't worry, Elky...spring is coming! Then you'll be wishing it was fall.

Yah, I'm tired of the cold.... it got down to 28 degrees one morning and has been in the 40's about 5 times in the past 2 months..... I might have to move to the Virgin Islands if it keeps up.... well at least it's back in the 80's agian this week

I am getting kinda sick of the cold, it hasn't really gotten above 20 since december and it hasn't stopped snowing since then either, the day after christmas we got 1/3 of our anual snowfall since then we have nearly doubled our anual snowfall, and F&G still isn't feeding the herds, leave it to them to kill all the deer off

I know what you mean, Smitty, the heat at my place actually kicked on 3 or 4 times last month!

But, it's a temperate 78 today, I can handle this cool front for a few days, but I wish winter would get out of here soon!!

We had a cold front move through here too. Should be back to normal in a few days!!!

This idea of feeding wild animals to keep them alive is totally foreign to me. Seems like it goes against the natural selection process. We might have to start calling you guys "Welfare Hunters" since a state agency has to keep your animals alive.

Moosie, that guy certainly has the right idea. The rest of you guys sporting the warm temps can bite me.

 

[scottymack]

Love it Moosie...... Around here its been about 64 all week, guess I have to go fishing tomorrow

 

[Left Behind]

Me too.... I'm getting ready to go to Dan's

 

[ELKCHSR]

It hasn't been quite that cold here, but has been averaging from the single digits to the low 20's every night...It does break above freezing just bairly every day so the snow turns to a very fun ice every day...

[Elkhunter]

Bite me Del

At least I can get enjoyment out of this come summer when it is 110+ down there. Just think, the 20s is 40 degrees warmer than it was today when I was outside shoveling snow in the cold.

 

[ELKCHSR]

Yep, I know that there will be times in Montana in the summer that we will have to put a coat on to stay warm...LMAO!!!!

 

[Left Behind]

Same here Russ, there will be times in Wyoming we'll have to put a jacket on also, but I can deal with that, it's when I have to dress like an eskimo I don't like it

 

[Delw]

I hae to agree with ya, the summers hhere suck...

You know it wouldnt be so bad here is we would have 10-30 degrees in drops between night and day, but 50-60 degree drops suck

[Elkhunter]

Even in the summer (August) I start the day with a jacket, but am shedding by 9-10:00 down to shirtsleves.
It is a cool -15 out now.

You know it wouldnt be so bad here is we would have 10-30 degrees in drops between night and day, but 50-60 degree drops suck Have to agree with on that one Del.

 

[scottymack]

That's why I like it here, maybe a few days (very few) below freezing, gets up to around 105 in the summer then drops to about 80 at night. Tkae today 62 wearing a shot sleeve except in the office, its about 30 then I have to put on a jacket
