Richard
We are already seeing "big ducks" out in the ricefields way down here in SC. I have seen Blacks, Mallards and Grays which do not usually start showing up until November. This is looking like a grat duck season in SC. I just purchased a DJI Phantom 3 to use for scouting for ducks. It has a range of 1.5 miles and a great autopilot and camera. Nice toy David |

Of all places, I would think Alaskans would be prepared to expect the unexpected.
May be time to take those skis leaning against the building and put them on your plane. |

A lot of folks are out hunting and, like me, returned home to unexpected chaos. My truck is still full of duck hunting gear, my front deck was/is covered with stuff that shouldn't be snow covered, the boat is still sitting in the driveway and full of snow when it would normally be upside down in the woods before the snow fell, etc. It's supposed to get to near 40deg but it better hurry because it's 23deg and crispy and starry out right now. Doesn't look like a thaw to me. There's still 10,000 w/o power this morning.

Richard, you may keep your snow up there. Please. I know it's coming but It's a depressing thought.
I miss summer already.

If you're lucky, Hurricane Joaquin will get up there and blow/wash all that snow away. Looks like it will screw up some folks weekend hunting here in the East.

Now it's melting and is supposed to be close to 40 with mixed rain/snow. Just what we need.

And when that slushy stuff freezes like concrete we get to feeling defeated by Ol' Man Winter... once again.
