....and the answer is no. Here is the weather that I'm currently dealing with. Kyle and Matthias are likely having the same. It's cold and windy. Ugh!!!

0 deg. F. This morning and my pipes froze, so, yea, no flight weather yet!

But I did get out and flew on Sunday! 39 deg. BUT sunny!

Yeah, Sunday was decent. It would have been a flyable day for me, too, but I had to work, lol.

The warmer weather has to be around here somewhere!!!

I'd be happy with constant 40 degree F weather and light to no wind.

...and I haven't found "that" lottery ticket either, lol.

I took a break through November and December. Other than that I've been flying sporadically through the winter. Not as much as I do in the summer, but maybe 10 - 20 flights each month. As long as the wind is manageable I don't mind the cold temps :)

I've been the same as long as the wind isn't bonkers then I'm out. I've been putting between 3-5 flights a week in over the winter, I can't wait for the warmer weather conditions so that I can get out more.hHoping to get 3-5 flights a day minimum during the summer.

Yes...if it's so cold that I can't feel my fingers within 30 seconds, I am not putting my models in the air. The warmer weather will come....it's just a matter of "when?".

I have a rule.
If it's cold enough to see yourself breathe it's too cold to get out of bed. :)

What if you see your own breath while in bed? Don't make any plans to see me. Not leaving the covers.
