We got our white Christmas after all.  It snowed almost all day yesterday, and I think most of the night.  We had a little over two inches early this morning, and we have received about another inch or two s […]

Our Christmas Eve day is starting out with very cold temps and a little snow.  We haven’t received  any accumulations yet, but we could get up to three inches by tomorrow.  So at this time, it looks like […]

We continue to have an average of an inch of snow cover in the areas where snow remains.  About half of the ground is bare however.  There is still the chance that we could get more tomorrow or Christmas d […]

We have just a light covering of snow this morning.  Most of the old snow has melted away.  All that remains is where the snow banks were and shaded areas.  There is the chance of freezing drizzle early to […]

Today is beginning with cloudy skies and cooler temps.  It looks like our warm weather is finished  for now, and another polar vortex is on the way.  There is also more snow in our forecast with a good ch […]

This morning is sunny and mild.  We received no precip yesterday and the thaw continued , so most of our snow is gone.  All we have left is where the snow banks were.  We do, however, have a chance for more sn […]

Wouldn’t you know that after receiving 8 inches of snow, most would melt right before Christmas.  That’s our luck.  These very warm temps are expected to last up to the weekend, then there really isn’t much s […]

Yesterday, I said that a white Christmas was a certainty for us but now I’m not so sure.  Temperatures were on the rise all night and we lost about 3 inches of snow.  I haven’t been able to get my car out of t […]

We should start seeing our temperatures moderate a bit this week.  We may see highs in the upper 30s to low 40s by mid week.  Although it won’t be warm enough to melt much of our snow, at least it should c […]

I have to say that the weather service really blew it yesterday.  Our forecast called for light snow with accumulations of less than an inch.  We got three.  I measured 8.75 inches on the ground this mo […]

It feels mild this morning compared to yesterday.  Temps have been on the rise all night.   Snow is falling at this time although we aren’t expecting much accumulation today.  It’s just enough to make the ro […]

Yesterday brought moderate to heavy snow all day to Mid Michigan.  We received 6.8 inches here of new snow leaving us with 8-9 inches of snow cover.  There were many serious accidents closing I-69 from D […]

The snow began falling shortly before 8 AM this morning and has continued since.  A winter storm warning is in effect until midnight with 5-8 inches expected.  All of the snow enthusiasts are ecstatic.   As […]

Although my area only received about 1.5 – 2 inches of new snow, counties to our south received as much as 6 inches.  Snow continues to be in the forecast but no significant accumulations are expected.  It w […]

There is no letup in the below normal temps for us until the weekend.  Our weather continues with roller coaster temperatures such as we have had most of the year.  It is either much warmer or colder than n […]

Saturday brought us light intermittent snow showers resulting in an inch of snow cover this morning.  We could see a little more this afternoon but no significant amounts are expected.  There is just e […]

Our morning seems nice and bright with the newly fallen snow.  We only have 1/2 inch on the ground, but it does a lot for making the day seem brighter.  I really do like snow this time of the year.  With ou […]

Although my area only received a trace of snow overnight,  it was a different story for northern Michigan.  With lake effect snow squalls moving over the state most of  Wednesday, there was a range of di […]

I am so tired of wind!  We had gusts up to 50 mph yesterday and many areas lost power.  The northern part of the state has been under a winter storm warning since yesterday and that will continue until 5 PM t […]

After a very warm Monday, a line of showers moved through the state early this morning bringing falling temperatures and a little rain.  There was only 0.04″ in my gauge this morning, but wind will be our […]
