Bitter Cold / Lots of Snow For Michigan
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 up this morning and the expected high was on 8°F. My thermometer is reading a bit higher than that now, and it doesn’t appear to be in the sun. Regardless, it is bitter cold out there and we don’t expect much warmer weather through the New Year.
