Good Morning:   Well warmer morning.  Temperatures waking up were sitting at -0.4 C | 31.28 F.

Forecast For Today:  Stormy, much rain through out most of the day and into tomorrow. Could be some freezing rain mixed in with things.   Few Warmer days ahead then back to cold.  Will get rid of most of our snow I suspect.

Hunting Times:  This morning the old weather stick is saying that the best times to be out there will be from 8:00 AM – 10:30 AM.  Then once again from 3:00 PM – 4:30 PM.  I give it a 2 Buck Rating out of 5 for seeing a few.  Winds this morning are coming in from the, South West at 1.3 m/s | 4.68 km/h | 2.91 mph.  They will pick up some as the progresses.  Good Luck!

Around Town.  Highway 522 is bare for most parts and if the freezing rain holds off it would be a good day to do some travelling.  Care will have to be taken otherwise. Yesterday my wife and I took advantage of the Black Friday Sales in North Bay.  Stores were almost as busy as Christmas time with lines at the check out backed up with people taking advantage of the sales.  For those that shop for Christmas it is a great day to get most of it done up.  Myself I believe it is a much better day than Boxing Day.  Reason being that the sales are before Christmas not afterwards.  Nothing worse than buying something, giving it out at Christmas and then finding it for half price on Boxing day.  Doesn’t make sense to me.  Changes are in need in that department, which is what is happening.  So…my wife and I got pretty well all our Christmas shopping done yesterday enjoying the day immensely. Gas prices were down somewhat too sitting at $1.17 a Litter. So filled up the Ford Edge too.  Love that vehicle, there isn’t none better on the road.  Also was a beauty of a day, with the sun just a shinning.  What could be better.  Enjoy your day my friends.  You can reach me George Walters at   [email protected]
