  • Finally, the frigid air is being replaced by more seasonable temperatures.  This coming week could see highs in the 40s and that will seem very balmy compared to what we’ve been having.  This morning is c […]

  • It finally looks like we may be getting a much needed warmup.  Temps next week are expected to be in the 30s and could even reach into the 40s.  That will feel absolutely balmy after what we have had.  To […]

  • We had snow showers most of our Wednesday giving us another half inch of the white stuff.  We have about 4 inches of ground cover at this time and it won’t be melting anytime soon.  I really don’t mind the s […]

    • Your winter temps are just an normal winter day here. I bet if you dig back into the 1800 you would find not that much has change from what you are getting now.

  • The deep freeze continues, not only in Michigan, but most of the eastern U.S.  There is even snow in the forecast for northern Florida.  So Mother Nature has certainly made life miserable for many of us.  So […]

  • Our 2018 is beginning with calm but very chilly temperatures.  Unfortunately, there is no reprieve anytime soon from the frigid weather that has affected us for the past couple of weeks.  At least there are n […]

  • Our New Year’s Eve day will be calm but very frigid.  The high is expected to only reach the single digits.  I hope that everyone stays safe through the weekend as there will be a lot of drinking going on, a […]

  • There seems to be no end to these snow showers.  Every day we pick up another 1/2 inch or so, just enough to keep roads icy.  Most is lake effect.  We currently have  about 4 inches of snow cover.  Our temp […]

  • We had light snow most of Thursday and we gained another half inch of snow cover.  We now have about three inches.  This morning actually felt warm with no wind and the overnight low didn’t fall below zero f […]

  • This bitterly cold weather is getting old.  I can’t remember when it has been this cold for such an extended period of time, and there is no end in sight.  The snow doesn’t bother me that much, but I hate t […]

  • We haven’t had weather this cold in several years.  In fact, the past two have been quite mild.  We had sun most of yesterday but it certainly didn’t feel any warmer.  Highs barely made it out of the single di […]

  • We had snow most of Sunday and even Christmas Day.  Between the two days, we have about 4 inches of snow cover.  Today is sunny but it does nothing to make going outdoors more bearable.  It was -6°F when I got […]

  • 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 […]
