Just for the heck of it I'm adding a little extra logs from standing dead wood to the wood pile. The best information I have found indicates that the 2014 -2015 winter should be both dryer and colder than usual. This may impact the mid to late hunting seasons. Several continental long range forecasts I have seen seem to agree based on the predicted location of the jet stream show that the Eastern US will have a colder and dryer than normal season: http://beforeitsnews.com/weather/2014/08/winter-forecast-for-2014-2015-highlights-2443436.html This view for a dryer winter is further strengthened for us that live and hunt East and Southeast of the lake by the colder water in lake Ontario. In addition to the surface water being colder (see below) is the colder than normal massive deep water. This will insure colder surface temperatures with the autumnal mixing that will take place. This should result in less lake effect snow southeast and east of the lake. Hopefully the colder than normal temperatures will still give us plenty of light tracking snow for the deep woods hunters and the colder temperatures will hopefully give us a stronger than normal rut.
