I am on lunch break between classes and just walked through some weather I haven't seen much of before.
The Weather Channel map says its snowing outside, but they're a little off, as usual. What is falling out of the sky right now is either sleet or hail, depending on where you're from. The ice pellets (ranging from a millimeter in diameter to maybe 3mm) are falling at rain speed, not floating like snow. There isn't any wind to speak of, and its about twenty degrees. So as I was getting pummeled by this stuff while walking on campus, my mind wandered. First I was wondering how it would be to drive in this stuff, considering I'm having trouble walking through what really feels like wet marbles underfoot. Then I wondered what kind of effect this crap would have on a bullet's trajectory. I'm not going outside any more than necessary today, but I imagine one of you guys can tell me from experience or from speculation.
What's the craziest weather conditions you have shot in?? I hope you can tell me a horror story about three feet of snow on the ground and some thundersnow or a tornado coming, just to make me feel better about our weather right now. Let's hear it!
