 I like SOME water.
Aren't you the guy who can't shoot in summer, because metal gets to hot to touch, and your ammo changes ?   

No thanks, I'll just bitch about the snow.

We've got a lake 40 miles long that's full of it. And you won't freeze your ass off in it. I don't shoot from late May to early October. Or about 4-1/2 months a year. The rest of the time it's perfect.

Compared to Chicago with it's 90 day Summers, (June, July, and August), and half of that time it's raining, or else threatening to.... Which is the only time you can shoot without freezing your ass off, I'll take it here hands down.

Both my cars are 2015, and 2018, and have yet to be driven on a wet street. The only time they get wet is when I wash them. And that's usually once or twice a year.

i dont mind the cold, it actually does not feel that bad here.  its not a wet cold, its very dry.


just when the snow hit the ground the idiots on the road get a million times worse. 

here is a great idea.... slow the f..k down.  take off slow, stop slow you will be fine.

But if they drive FAST, especially with bald tires, and no brakes, they will eventually eliminate their carbon footprint.
Probably won't even hurt the tree doing it.

NO. NO.   I'm not falling for that.  "It's a dry cold."    Went to Tucson.  Sis-in-law said I'd like it, because it's a dry heat.  No no.  It was still 103.  The shiny, bright chrome hand rails at the swimming pool were too hot to touch.

Hot is hot and Cold is cold.   Period.

Oh and we've had 2.5" of rain this week.  In snow terms that's the same as 2' of snow only without the cold

It does make a difference.   90 degrees and 90% humidity  will feel hotel tham 100 degrees and 10%

Its basic physics.  You have more mass to the air.  Which means more energy  storage

Agree 100%. And it works the other way as well. 40 F Cold dry air at 10% relative humidity feels A LOT COLDER than 40 F air at 80% humidity.

[alfsauve]

It feels.  It feels.   Science also say no matter how hard the wind blows or how high or low the humidity is water does not freeze at 40f.   I'll take the "it feels yukkie"  over sub freezing temps any day.   

[Rastus]

If the wind blows hard enough it's all bad!
