Strong storms around Veteran's Day are typically the first big push of ducks around here. We had one this year, but a small one by comparison. On 1 Nov '91 there was a big storm, a little earlier than usual. I drove along the Mississippi to LaCrosse that day in heavy rain that turned to very heavy snow mid-afternoon - about a foot in an hour around 3:00. A few duck hunters died on the Mississippi with the fast change and a Golden was found the next day riding on top of a capsized boat. But what sticks out about that one was a former grad student at the U of Iowa, disgruntled about his career, killed a bunch of people on campus.
