gofast_ER 0 #1 February 19, 2006 so im sittin here in the barracks at fort polk on a 4 day weekend. I could have been jumping but noooooo of course it has to be freakin freezing on the 4 day. Don't really feel like driving 2 1/2 hours to MABY do one or two hop n pops. God i miss california. ok...so this is pretty much a pointless post im just boerd.

L.O. 0 #2 February 19, 2006 I don't know where Polk is, but I am here in Wi.. It's about 10F outside and the wind at about 15K. I understand your pain my brother. We just had a discussion recently about the worst weather. which weather is worst. Is the worst weather when it's cloudy and overcast raining. Is it when the wind is blowing at 30+ on a beautiful day. Or is it when it is so cold that you can't phYisically handle it. I think you should make that a thread subject, maybe I will. I think it's when it's to cold. You can look outside and see the perfect sky, turn to the wind gauge and see that no wind is blowing. You can always hope the clouds will break on a rainy day or that the wind dies towards sunset on a windy day. I HATE WINTER..HPDBs, I hate those guys. AFB, charter member.

gofast_ER 0 #3 February 19, 2006 well its about 30 here now. Personally brave the cold to jump but i dont think they will be flying today. They have stayed on the ground in warmer weather than this so its a pretty safe bet. anyway..... would have to say the cold too. Like you said you can hope the clouds brake enough to jump, you can hope the wind dies down, but it never warms up that fast. I was so looking foward to jumping during my for day weekend too fort polk is about 2 hours east of beaumont tx by the way. quite possibly the ugliest place in the us.I may not agree with what you have to say but i'll defend to the death your right to say it.
