I'm actually thinking about changing the location my son and i hunt to a blind so i can pre-stock it with the buddy heater and propane. Considering he was in sitka fanatic bibs AND an IWOM last year for gun season opener.

Just started snowing on pad at work ,couple more hours and days off come on !
If you use a buddy heater, don't be overdressed if you're in a popup. Try having a 20 ilb hooked up if you can.
I was planning on using the smaller buddy heater that only connects to a mini bottle. I do have the bigger one and the hose and tanks but will save that for another location.

This is what i was planning on using.
@Jackalope, did the tornados miss you overnight? Looks like those storms fucked things up good.
Had a couple of lightshow cells scream through GC last night. Close enough you could see the flash through closed eyes and blinds. Thunder clap was almost instantaneous.
Looks like the worst of what we got went right over you @giles . Hope everyone is OK!

Yup. We good. I'm gonna sleep like a rock tonight though. Didn't sleep much last night
Wind is getting it! Hopefully this keeps the deer down tonight and they move in the morning.
Well, this happened again...... rain causes our phone line to call 911. We even got rid of our phones. We still have the line for internet...
They said they can put a note on the #, so if it ever happens again, they'll know not to respond.

Got dark and the wind is howling…. Trees are really rocking! Sounds like a freight train! Unfortunately I’m close too railroad tracks so that’s somewhat normal 
Looking ahead to the weekend...gonna be good and cold. Was hoping for some white groundcover to help the deer stand out but oh well. Looks like a good possibility of a white christmas though.
I'm not one of these Chicken Little guys in regards to snow storms. Social media "weather people" have created a monster with darn near every snow storm forming. On the one moving in I have heard "blizzard" mentioned too many times to include NBC and main stream media using the word "blizzard."
That said, I think we all need to be ready for this one. Not necessarily due to snow amounts though, but due to cold and winds. They are talking flash freeze. Think: power line freezes and power outages. They are talking 50mph winds. Again think: trees falling on power lines, houses, cars. Maybe the scary part is the extreme swing in temps. Close to 40 Thursday, and dropping to -30 with wind-chill Friday.
Fuel up your spare gas cans. Get your emergency food supplies and water. Fire up the generator before you need it. If you don't need any of it? That is excellent. If you need it? You'll be glad you did it before it was negative wind chill.
