Yea its happening pretty badly in my area. My friend just found a dead 10 point about a week ago next to a water hole. My area has been in a huge drought this whole year. It is frickin umbelievable. This whole summer i can only recall it ranning two times. The ponds everywhere are like 4-5 ft low and thats whats causing these knats to grow. My area wont be seeing any frost likely till the middle of November. Right now weather.com is saying that 10 days from now the weather is supposed to be back in the 80's with no rain from now till then. When was the last time we had 80 degree temp. towards the end of october?
