"N" is nosedived

Ennis's spirits nosedived with the news that their summer was over - just because the temperature nosedived for one night.

"O" is overcast

EXT:  BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN, WYOMING:  CAMP:  DAY:  1966:

Later in day, overcast.  Though it's summer, there is a biting little wind.

JACK, wearing only his boots, is doing laundry.  Shivers.

Squats by the stream, carefully wrings out ENNIS'S only other shirt, a denim button-up western-style shirt.

"P" is pouring

During the pouring rain, Ennis whittled away at the horse and at his thoughts of Jack Twist.  Maybe he was thinking of pouring whiskey.

"S" is snowdrift

Ennis wakes up in the pup tent one morning to find that it's almost blocked by a snowdrift.

"U" is uncooperative
« Reply #10896 on: February 06, 2007, 07:44:07 pm »
Uncooperative weather -- another storm moving in from the Pacific -- puts an end to Jack and Ennis's time together up on Brokeback and cuts them out of a whole month's pay.

"V" is volatileness

Due to the volatileness of the mountain weather, Jack and Ennis were instructed to "bring 'em down" early.

Ennis was weathering the storm when he spent the whole night with Jack in the main camp because of the hailstorm.

Foul weather was xacerbating a proper farewell for our boys; August snow is a bitch.
