Winter E-Skip around this time of year occasionally happensI was in Luling Texas today and was getting all kinds of skips but the most interesting one was I believe it was WSIX. Usually I pick up KBXX Houston most of the time. Today WSIX? came in very clear. Well guess with the crazy weather we been having it could be possible.
There were no other real reports of eskip the day I heard KMCJ 99.5 Colstrip, MT in Ridgway, PA in December 2017The intense weather would've been the one to produce tropospheric conditions, which caused a lot of distant stations around Texas and surrounding areas east to be received. Should it have been E-skip, more distant stations like a thousand miles away would have came in. I have not seen reports of sporadic E skip activity today so far.
900 miles isn't impossible for tropo but also not likelyThere were no other real reports of eskip the day I heard KMCJ 99.5 Colstrip, MT in Ridgway, PA in December 2017
