Any weathermen? Is it getting colder?

Anyone ever notice .......sitting in your stand.......that it gets a couple degrees COLDER when the sun comes up (orAS it is)? I guess it's in my head, now......but I seem to notice it.....even after sitting on stand for sometimes a couple hours before I see light.

Do you notice it?

Normally the coldest part of the day is just at sunrise.........

ITs gets colder right before sunrise because the sun is forcing the colder air to the ground as it is rising.

Everyone knows and Al Gore confirmed it that we have Global Warming....Not Global Cooling like they were claiming back in the late 70's and early 80's.[&:]

Yes I noticed that before

yep, learned that in meterology last semester...typically the lowest temp is reached just as the day is breaking.

also, if theres heavy cloud cover over night, the lows wont be as low as if it were clear...clouds help keep the heat in i guess...

always wondered why id walk outside on the porch to decide what clothes to wear hunting...not get sweating walking to stand or anything...and then id be freezing waiting for the sun to rise and warm me back up! i dont know how much of a difference there typically is from say an hour before that lowest low, to the lowest low...but ive felt it and sometimes its very noticable...

Yea I just thought it was cause If Im cold waiting for the sun to come up im trying to block it out(me being cold) then when the sun starts to come up I get excited and realize how cold I was waiting!

It isa fact that it does get colder as the sun begins to rise, pretty much for the reason bow huntert said

You get in your stand a couple hours before daylight!

And that makes perfect sense to me.
