Title: Where's spring?!
Post by: Farmboy27 on April 08, 2016, 09:28:17 PM
Spring just won't get here in central PA. Cold and windy all week and now it looks like 2-6 inches of snow tomorrow. Only 3 weeks till season (2 weeks till youth).  I sure hope this weather gets a bit more seasonal. Hate to have to wear a camo snow snow suit for spring gobbler!!

Season has been in for a week here tomm in NE TN and the weather has sucked, as I type this it's lightning and hailing and snowing/raining lol. It's been very windy and cold all week and they are calling for snow with 25 to 35 mph winds with gusts up to 50mph and a high of 48 lol.

Weather has been up and down here in NY, I think people expect it to be in the 70s cause of our warmer winter but this April isn't unusual, I remember one time there was some snow on the ground in the first week of May... Warmer temps will be coming this week and everything will work out like usual and on the plus side Turkey number should be up this year.

Good deal. As much as I like hunting deer in the snow, not a fan of turkey hunting in it. They stand out better but I'm not a fan.

Yep, peepers singing in the pond across the road one day and temps in the teens and snow the next night. Like some of the others said, It's typical of April here in NY, but it doesn't mean I have to like it. ;D
