I switched plans and will be hunting local this weekend and heading east next weekend.  For one, I'm taking my kids that are almost 4 and didn't think camping in this weather with them would be ideal.  I also don't want my power to go out for 3 days and have my freezers melt.  If I'm home, I can run the generator to keep the beef, elk, deer, salmon, etc frozen.

Last big power outage we had was that last big ice storm a few years back.  Things were still frozen after 72 hours of no power, when I decide to start up the generator, but that was with pretty cold ambient temps. 

You might be good for at least 48 hours of power outage, especially if it is cold outside, but I might worry about pipes freezing, if it is too cold.

If your a real blacktail hunter then you will be out on Saturday!! This is the best weather for hunting those little brush rats!!
I will personally be setting up my wall tent tomorrow in 20-30 mph winds, no trees around just grass, should be a blast!!!  Muledeer hunting in open country with rain and high wind will be interesting!!

That's what I'm talkin' bout

Nothing better than nasty weather for blacktail hunting!

[Humptulips]

I for sure will be deer hunting. Sounds perfect to me. Clam digging in the evening however is canceled.

[WSU]

I'll definitely be hunting locally.  Crappy weather is where it's at!

35 foot surf sound like a bit too much?  Sneaker waves probably to 40 or so - and in the dark!  I'm all in!  Watch out bivalves - here I come!
