You wouldn’t know it by looking at the weather but winter has arrived, on this, the shortest and darkest day of the year.

Today we turn the corner. Days get longer starting tomorrow and before you know it we’ll be back into long, hot summer days on the MO’.

Turning the corner towards summer days on the Missouri

For now we’ll see temps topping out in the low 50’s today followed by some snow tomorrow and then right back into the same weather we’ve had for what seems like a month now. Partly sunny skies, highs in the low 40’s with no weather events on the horizon.

The WCA guide and shop crew will be enjoying the solstice en masse, spending the day on the water as you would expect.

We’ll be back in the shop tomorrow with regular hours Tuesday and Wednesday and 8 – noon (ish) on Christmas Eve. We will be closed on Christmas, but back in the shop Saturday before taking a few days off next week for some end of the year R and R.

We hope you get out and enjoy this Christmas week on the MO.

Tight Lines and Happy Solstice!
