This is the third weekend where a snowy weather system is about to drop 3-6 inches of snow on us. This is getting to be a habit, one that we are getting tired of. We still have some ice patches that haven’t melted yet from the ice storm 4 weeks ago. Ice melts much slower than snow, and it remains in areas that don’t get much sun. Now tomorrow we’ll be shoveling again. Since our January and February were so…
We still have a little snow on the ground, mainly where there were snowbanks and shade. Temperatures will still be above freezing today so hopefully, it will all be gone before we get the next storm this weekend. From what I’m hearing, we can expect about three to six inches on Friday, but it’s still too early to be set in stone. Daylight Saving Time begins this weekend and I hate it. Having to adjust to getting up an hour…
After a rainy / snowy Monday, our Tuesday is bright and sunny. We did receive about 1.5″ of snow overnight, but most has already melted. High temperatures will reach to near average today and this round of snow should be gone by tonight. We are already being warned of another winter storm heading our way for Friday. These seem to be never-ending. Now that March is here, we’re getting our winter. What’s even worse is that temperatures are expected to…
We had a light rain/snow mix overnight which left a trace of snow on the deck this morning It melted down to 0.03″ of precip. We now have light rain and most of the snow is gone except for where the snowbanks were from shoveling. Temperatures aren’t as warm as yesterday but still not uncomfortable. It looks like a typical day in early March. Our 3:45 PM temperature is 37°F (3°C), the humidity is 78%, and skies are cloudy with…
Slowly, our snow is melting away. We still have about an inch or two, depending where you measure. There is quite a bit of bare ground showing now and I expect to lose a lot more of it today. The day began with clear skies but now clouds are on the increase. We may get a little mixed precip late tonight or tomorrow from what I’ve hear, but no accumulations expected Our 2:30 PM temperature is 48°F (9°C), the humidity…
Unlike many other places in Michigan, I’d say we got off quite easy with this latest winter storm. We only got about 5 inches, and with the sun out, it’s melting pretty fast. Counties south of us got more snow and even had some thunder and lightning with it. Even Lansing reported some thunder-snow. Today is bright and sunny, and just a lovely winter day. For those who love winter sports, they won’t have it nicer than what today is….
We are currently under a Winter Storm Warning, and the amount of snow that we can expect, depends on who you listen to. NOAA, who is usually quite conservative, is saying that we could get up to 10 inches, but most of the local weather gurus are saying 6-8 inches for my area. The heavy snow should reach us around 5 PM and continue into the overnight. Thankfully, it should be over by morning. Temperatures over the next week should…
We have another winter storm knocking on our door. At least this one is supposed to be snow, not ice. Estimated totals are six to eight inches for my area. At least most of the ice cover is gone thanks to the warm temps that we had yesterday. The Watch is from tomorrow afternoon through tomorrow night. Today will be another hard one for the southern states, as tornadoes will plague them once again. As for us, today’s weather should…
We should see our temperatures rise today enough to get rid of most of the ice on the ground. We lost quite a bit yesterday, and it was slushy enough to be plow-able. The grader went down the road and removed most of it. We still have about 70% ground cover. Highs today are expected to reach the upper 40s, so that should make a big difference. Our 11 AM temperature is 39°F (4°C), the humidity is 80%, and winds…
We had freezing rain yesterday morning which turned to all rain by the afternoon. Our temperature now has reached the 40s , and all the ice on the trees gone. We started the day with clouds, but it has cleared up this afternoon, and the sun is a welcome sight. We are starting to see patches of grass showing through the ice cover, and the yard no longer feels crunchy to walk on. Unfortunately, there is more winter mix on…
