    I woke up for work this morning and noticed about 2″ of snow on the ground, and it’s still coming down. I live in northwest Iowa. Wouldn’t you know, today is the only day I have to work in the morning for the whole month. Should be some good hunting today. Pheasants will be headed for cover and ducks on the move. Could be a long day for me with the first snow, I’m sure all sorts of vehicles will be going in the ditch.

    Just drove in from Kasson to Rochester. There was a lot more snow coming down when I left than there is here in Roch. It was snowing so hard I could hardly see the road and it made me dizzy trying to focus.

    My son has a goose hunt tomorrow that he won with a local guide service. They are doing this for a bunch of kids I think…..I believe it is the first year. I am no expert but I think this snow will help out!

    As I walked into work today, all I could think about was, “what a great day to go hammer eyes and saugers on Pool 4.”

    You can add lightning and thunder to the mix in Rochester now. Pretty sweet.

    And you should see all the people that act as if they have never driven in stuff like this! There is a reason why people are driving slow…and then there is a reason why YOU are now in the ditch! Let’s be careful out there folks! Would be a good day to stalk deer!

    Saw the first car in a ditch this winter. Went in right across from the store. Good thing he was going slow and did not have any damage. The snowplow came through a little while ago and now the roads look much better.

    Good Fishing,

    Cannon Falls MN was bad enough I had to put the truck in 4×4 to get out of my driveway and pull away from the curb at the bakery (that could have been the snow or to many dohnuts ) . If I had to guess I would say 3-5″ on the ground.

    It’s tryin here in south central Nebraska, but it just doesn’t seem like it’s gonna amount to anything. I know it came down a little bit in NE Nebraska.

    We have about 8″ of the white junk on the gound here in Central Wis. Bright spot is it won’t stay long, and it should help cool the water for forming ICE Think I will pull out the auger tomorrow and get her ready. For those of you who want snow, bring a truck I have a yard full for free

    Just 20 minutes south of me they got 16.5 inches Caused many many long delays on the highways with many accidents and a few shutdowns of the highways. Havent heard of any serious accidents though, which is good.
