A Few Warmer Days Before the Next Polar Votex – Mid Michigan

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 snow before Christmas and our local meteorologist said that computer models are showing that it could be substantial.  He also cautioned that it is still much to early to make a definite prediction.  On the positive side, all of the roads are clear.  Our driveway in on an incline going to the road, so my poor little car can’t make it when we have a lot of snow.  Thankfully, we have a 4 wheel drive truck
