This was the scene here at Roaring River State Park at 6:30 this morning. When I realized I'd been going to opening day (only missing a few) for 60 years, I had to stop just to digest that thought! One of the best, weather-wise, opening days on record. In 2 days, however, the scene will dramatically change as flooding rains are forecast. Here in Missouri they say "just wait a day, the weather will change".
I recall a beautiful sunny day fly fishing in Wrentham. May 9th 1977. we were waist deep in the water when it suddenly started snowing!! turned into a blizzard. we got about 4" of heavy wet snow. as most of the trees had leafed out by then the damage was extensive. three days later the snow was gone and the roadsides where littered with downed branches. only place I've ever been where the sky was blue, the sun was shining and it was snowing...
