I hope any of our members, either hunters, guides or their familys being hit by this storm are somewhere warm and safe.


Regards,

Chuck

Watching the weather channel right now. Looks like a pretty wild storm. Hope all are safe.

Been through 7.9 shakers, floods at ice out that washes everything away, huge burns where I heard the trains & jets overhead, and minus 60 temps every January. I think most Alaskans see it as just weather. Anyway, it's been going from minus 20 to plus 10 last few days, not too bad.

Gumboot, You know how overblown things seem to be sometimes. I think so many people today expect everything to be perfect or just right and it it ain't, well somebody got take care of it for them. I think most rural Alaskans expect adversity, actually thrive on it.

One of our Indians bought a new snowmachine, rode 185 miles up the Taylor over last day or so. Saw a real nice grizz mile 60 of the Taylor. Bear was robbing bait from marten sets along the road.

Ya. I thot bad wx and Alaska were sinanims(sp). When I immigrated to Alaska there was none stop rugged weather ..All the news stuff about th weather. Now is just to push the wackos global warming agenda.. I guess all these earthquakes going on ar are caused.by cars, wood stoves,people breathing and cows farting. We are prolly are what causes solar flares. Well according to them anyway..

I went through the same kind of storm in 1974. NOAA reported 100 foot mountainous seas and I flew over the top of it in a C130 at 24,000 feet. We got the snot kicked out of us. As I recall the barometer dropped out of sight, about as low as ever recorded. I hope this one is less intense. Jim
