M We have another round of lake effect snow which is causing dangerous conditions on the roads. We now have about 4.5 inches of snow cover and still more to come. This is the 5th day in a row that it is snowing, and it’s really getting old. What’s worse is that temps are so cold that road salt isn’t very effective. I’m glad we don’t have to go anywhere today. Our 1:15 PM temperature is 16°F, the humidity is…
The The winter storm which affected much of our country has moved on, leaving the southern states with a lot of ice damage to trees. Tennessee and Mississippi seemed to be the hardest hit. Here in Michigan, we got some snow out of it, but no great amounts, at least here in mid Michigan. The areas in the western portions of our state got quite a bit of lake effect snow, which brought them up to a foot. We got…
The massive winter storm, which is affecting about one third of the country, is wreaking havoc on our southern and eastern states. Michigan lucked out once again. We are getting some light snow but we are expecting only an inch or so. The frigid temperatures continue with highs in the teens, but that’s better than yesterday where it didn’t make it out of the single digits. There is no warmup expected anytime soon, maybe not until mid February. Our 10:15…
Everyday lately, we’ve been getting at least a couple inches of snow every day. Every time we shovel the deck, there is more the next day. Most is lake effect which manages to reach this far inland. There’s a “catastrophic” winter storm slamming into the southern regions of the country. Much of it will be ice storms, expected to leave up to an inch of ice in some areas. People are warned that they could be without electricity for up…
The snow began about 8:30 this morning has been increasing in intensity since then. Radar is showing that it is almost past us, and it looks like we’ll get about two inches buy the time it is done. At least it’s a little warmer this morning. Unfortunately, we have some very cold days coming by week’s end with highs only in the single digits. Our 11:30 AM temperature is 24°F, the humidity is 84%, and skies are cloudy with moderate…
This current weather is much too cold for me. This winter is much like our summer was . . . . one extreme to the other. We’re making up for the past winters that have very mild. Our local weather gurus aren’t giving us much hope for an end to this either. I’d even welcome a foot of snow if only temperatures would stay close to freezing. But it is what it is. Our temperature is 15°F, the humidity is…
This is not a good day to be outdoors. Not only do we have very cold temperatures, but the wind is terrible. Wind chills could fall to -15F this afternoon. There are many lake effect snow squalls happening, especially on the west side of the state. Some of the expressways are closed due to accidents, and in these freezing temps, that is not a good thing. Our 2 PM temperature is 17°F, the humidity is 63%, and winds are from…
We have snow showers today which began overnight. We aren’t getting much, just enough to make the roads a little slippery. Our forecast is calling for 2-4 inches by the time it is finished. Our 12:45 PM temperature is 25°F, the humidity is 81%, and skies are cloudy with moderate snow. Winds are from the south at 4-7 mph, and the pressure is 29.52 in and falling. The dew point is 17°F and visibility is 1 miles. Yesterday’s high was…
We have another dip in the jet stream bringing frigid temperatures with it. Yesterday was quiet but there were a few snow showers which gave us another inch of new show. There is no more precipitation expected until tonight. Our 10:45 AM temperature is 10°F, the humidity is 70%, and skies are mostly clear. Winds are from the NW at 5-8 mph and the pressure is 29.82 in and rising. The dew point is 2°F and visibility is 10 miles. …
