Wool clothes, and some modern synthetic fabrics, provide warmth even when wet. Weather conditions can change quickly during the hunting season. A light rainfall can change to freezing rain in just a few minutes. Three feet of snow can fall overnight. Temperatures can drop 30 to 40 degrees in just a few hours or even a few minutes in some places.
Weathermen forecast the weather, but the forecasts can change very quickly.
Choose clothes that will handle the weather. One way to prepare for the worst conditions is to use the layering principle. You wear or carry with you several layers of clothing. As weather conditions change, you add or remove additional layers. Layer your clothes.
