    Alberta clippers where are you????

    Need them bad to get the turnover at Dale Hollow started and then need them to stay around to get it done before my first trip but it is not looking too good right now. Normal year the fly is in full swing by the 10th of December but looks a little late this year if the turnover drags out a bit. Never had any luck fishing the fly during the turnover, always just after she is done is when the prime time starts. BRING THE COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Looks like a week from today the forecast calls for lows in the mid 30's and highs in the mid 40's should get it started but not sure if she will be done by my first trip. Might just have to move it out a bit to get the good bite.

    Yeah - it needs to hurry up. My first trip the last two years has been just after Thanksgiving. I'd like to go again that early, but maybe there won't be much reason to.

    I hope EVERY day in December is just like this, especially from Horse Creek Marina on the south side to Hendricks Creek marina on the north side to Wolfe Creek Marina on the West side of Dale Hollow Lake. If I need to be a little bit more specific then how about a 10 mile radius of First Island.

    So when are Cold Temperatures and Snow supposed to get here?


    Short Answer: December 1st and stay around until at least December 5th.


    Expanded Answer:

    Siberia has experienced record low temperature for November, 2009. Normally, Siberians are
    accustomed to the cold, but they were completely unprepared for temperatures this low and
    this early in the season.

    How cold has it been? minus 55°F
    The hospital in the city of Irkutsk is overwhelmed. In just one week, the cold killed 17 people,
    and doctors amputated the limbs of at least 70 patients who suffered severe frostbite. Pausing
    for just a short period of time outside could prove extremely dangerous — one man who
    stopped to fix his car had to have both his hands and feet amputated because of frostbite.

    Source: http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/story?id=131290&page=1


    Most currently, the weather in Siberia today at the airport in Dzalinda, Russia was:
    Temperature: minus 41 °F
    Humidity: 18%
    Dew Point: minus 57 °F
    Wind: 2 mph from the West
    Pressure: 30.21 in (Rising)
    Visibility: 31.0 miles
    Elevation: 203 ft

    Source: http://www.wunderground.com/global/stations/21908.html


    Starting on or about December 1st, cold air is forecasted to enter the Ohio Valley and push
    south to middle Tennessee. The initial blast of cold air will then begin to move back North,
    except on December 3rd, a reinforcing blast of cold air is forecast to arrive. If the timing is
    right, both Kentucky and Tennessee could receive 5 inches of snow on the evening of
    December 4th.
    See map attached to this post.


    The second cold air blast is forecasted to continue moving south into the southern portions of
    Louisiana and Alabama. See map in the 2nd post below.

    From December 1st to the 5th, expect high temperatures in the 30's and Lows in the 20's.

    We shall see.
