Nice, warm motel room with comfortable beds, shower, microwave, refrigerator and restaurants for food; my kind of trip Lawrence. See you Friday AM.
Hey Matt I didn’t forget my clothes unlike someone else did I just didn’t change to make him fill better 😂😂
Have a fun and safe weekend up there guys. Won't be able to join this weekend but will be up there Saturday the 15th thru Monday (Presidents Day) the 17th.Here's two that came through the ice weekend before last right next to me.
Well its looking like its going to be a no go for the Gorge this weekend, the nasty "W" is not going to let up and this forecast is nothing we want to drive in or sit in on the iceTonight: Patchy blowing snow and a chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with lows mainly in the lower 30s. Windy, with a west wind between 24 and 28 mph, with gusts as high as 36 mph. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.Friday: Patchy blowing snow and a chance of snow before 4pm. Partly sunny, with highs mostly in the upper 30s. Breezy, with a west northwest wind 21 to 24 mph decreasing to between 8 and 11 mph. Winds could gust as high as 32 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%.Friday Night: Partly cloudy, with lows mostly in the lower 20s. West wind 5 to 12 mph becoming south.Saturday: A slight chance of snow before 2pm, then a slight chance of rain and snow between 2pm and 4pm, then a slight chance of snow after 4pm. Mostly sunny, with highs mainly in the upper 30s. Breezy, with a south wind 19 to 22 mph becoming west northwest 7 to 10 mph. Winds could gust as high as 29 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.Guess the big boys will have to wait for me to get there on another day
I'm headed up Sat morning too. So far the forecast is looking great for this weekend so the lighting should be good for the pictures I'll take holding that 30 pounder I'm going to catch.....
I most certainly wouldn't bet against that happening!
Next year
I heard of another wheeler going through the ice out there a couple days ago. Be careful I’ll be out there Friday- Sunday. Good luck on that 30lber
I was told by a buddy about that wheeler he also said just be carful and check the edges where you plan on going onto the ice
Mainly cloudy with a mixture of rain and snow showers developing in the afternoon. High 41F. Winds WSW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 40%.
I dont think it will be to bad as there are conflicting reports and I'm not seeing the "W" to high. This is what I see this morning on the NWS pinpoint map for I-80 before the Bridger exitFriday-A 20 percent chance of snow showers after 11am. Mostly sunny, with a high near 35. West southwest wind 8 to 11 mph.Friday Night-A 20 percent chance of snow showers before 11pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 13.Saturday-Partly sunny, with a high near 30.Saturday Night-A chance of snow after 11pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 22.Sunday-Snow. Cloudy, with a high near 35. Breezy.Sunday Night-A chance of snow. Cloudy, with a low around 12. Breezy.Washington's Birthday-A chance of snow. Cloudy, with a high near 19.Then this is at the spot on the GorgeFriday-A 20 percent chance of snow after 11am. Mostly sunny, with a high near 38. South southeast wind around 6 mph becoming calm in the morning.Friday Night-A 30 percent chance of snow before 11pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 19. Light south wind.Saturday-Partly sunny, with a high near 36. Calm wind becoming west southwest 5 to 7 mph in the afternoon.Saturday Nigh-tMostly cloudy, with a low around 26.Sunday-Snow likely before 2pm, then rain and snow likely between 2pm and 4pm, then snow likely after 4pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 40. Chance of precipitation is 60%.Sunday Night-A 30 percent chance of snow, mainly before 11pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 19.Washington's Birthday-A slight chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 29.Definitely looking worse on the ice but with the year winding down that's an acceptable risk for me on the roads and ice. We'll for sure be back up at least twice after Cascade. I got a shot in my hip Monday and its feeling pretty good so I just might get an overnighter on the ice this year yet
Good luck to all going. Be safe and have a good time.
looking good for the weekend and matt I will believe when I see it
Have fun all, unfortunately I will be out of town for my sons hockey in Colorado Springs! I'm going to try and fit one trip in next weekend while ya'll are at Cascade from Thursday evening to Saturday. Good luck, hope everyone snags some big ones!
Wasn’t able to get a 30lber so I settled for a 28
