NFR Snow today

Non-fishing related
Winter snow advisory just issued for tonight for western WA. "Chance of precipitation is 60%. New snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches possible."
 
Supposed to get 1/2" yesterday. Got 2+" with another inch today.

Zippo in Corvallis. Just cold and foggy.

I remember fishing in the snow. Usually it didn't work out ... except for The Metolius. Back in the day when they first started leaving the river open all year around we could do quite well in the snow, even with dry flies. I don't think the river temp ever changed all year -- very cold no matter the month -- so the bugs and fish paid the cold conditions no mind. But that was long, long ago.
