Keeping an Eye on the Forecast

Plans for a Fall Eagle Trip now in the works…keeping an eye on the forecast is the important part of the trip.
Conditions can change quickly the farther North you travel up along Lake Winnipeg.

I had the opportunity to witness one of the Lake Winnipeg snow squalls in 2020 that produced near White Out conditions. Didn’t seem to bother the Eagles…but I was certainly glad I had 4-wheel drive.

That’s when I pulled the plug and decided perhaps the best option would be to head South and home.
Twenty-five kilometers South of the White Out I was seeing the sunshine, blue skies and dry roads…definitely one of the strangest days ever.

Here’s hoping for some sunshine up North…time will tell.
