I was headed to the high country with my wife. Not going to do that now. I think it's too risky especially with her along.  Not too excited about killing anything anyway.  I'm a little worried what this will do with the remaining of the herd.

The problem as I see it in the Methow is the possibility of roads being washed out or big slides in the burn scar areas.  It would suck to get trapped...it would also suck to not be able to get to plan "A".
     I'm pulling the trigger on plan "B".  That will likely be all I'll pull the trigger on...

If the cold weather stays around, we could see feet of snow instead of inches of rain. It was in the upper 30's all day where I was.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm hunting on Saturday, not Friday, which the previous few wind forecasts are for.  I think the wind is supposed to ease up on Saturday, although it will be rainy.  Get out and hunt!
Some of the reports I am seeing say that Saturdays wind storm will be the worst. Possibly the biggest ever to hit the N.W. Even bigger than the Columbus Day storm of 1962.

If it gets even close to that, I think they'll be closing down some of the bridges.

There are two storms, one Thursday and one Saturday, on the west side of the state.  The link to Cliff Mass's blog explains the two potential for two storms.  Saturday's storm is the worst of the two.  In those kind of winds you won't find me in the woods, no deer is worth that.
I know I've lost it, let me know if you come across it

The latest forecast I saw showed snow at 9-10k feet.
The majority of areas where hunters will be are gonna see rain.
