Although the PA groundhog, Phil, is predicting more winter ahead, NOAA is saying something else. My picture shows NOAA’s recent temperature predictions for almost half of February and it is showing a significant warmup for the eastern half of the US. So who will be right? Science or rodent? I guess that time will tell. As for me, I’m hoping that NOAA is correct. Our high today should make it to the freezing mark, and hopefully, melt some of the…
With highs today only in the teens, we’ll take all the sun we can get. It does seem to be a little warmer and my deck is melting quite nicely where the sun is shining. Our snow pack remains at 5.5 inches, and none of it is going anywhere until possibly tomorrow. It is expected to be considerably warmer, but only for one day. But better days are on the horizon for the weekend. At least we aren’t getting the…
We have sun this morning but very cold temperatures. Our temp was -5°F this morning at 8:30AM, and highs today won’t make it out of the teens. This is the price we pay for lack of cloud cover. It’s fine if you don’t have to be outdoors in it, and can just observe out the window. Fortunately, that’s us. This arctic air will continue most of this week, and we are promised another round of above-average temps next week. That…
We have had snow now for the past 3 days, and with it came very cold temperatures. Highs will only reach the lower 20s today and the teens tomorrow. We have a snow pack of 5.5 inches and it looks like that will remain for a while. No thaw expected anytime soon. We are still seeing a few snow flurries from time to time, but not enough to add to the snow pack. That’s fine. I’m happy with the snow…
We have another round of snow coming our way for tonight. Our area is expecting 3-5 inches. Yesterday brought intermittent snow showers but we only received about an inch of new snow. Winds were quite strong and it seemed at times to be snowing harder than it really was. We have about 3-4 inches of snow cover at this time and we are under a winter weather advisory for the overnight hours. Most of it is expected to end sometime…
It seems that since it started snowing, it doesn’t know when to quit. We had a few snow showers today which became blowing snow this afternoon. This morning was even a little sunny but that didn’t last long. Right now, winds have picked up and it is very cold. Snow is in the forecast for this weekend and a few days next week will find it hard to even reach 20°F. We currently have a five inch snow pack. Yes…
Everything was white this morning. We received a good amount of wet snow that is sticking to everything today. Temps are hovering right around freezing, so there is some melting happening. My husband cleared off the deck and now it is almost clear of snow. We just went shopping and all the main roads are clear and wet. The snow lasted all day yesterday, but it ranged from light to moderate, so it wasn’t too difficult to travel. There are…
We are expecting 2-4 inches of snow today according to most of our local media. At this time it is just snowing lightly with about half an inch of accumulation. It is expected to get heavier as the day goes on. Southern Michigan is expecting much more with accumulations of up to 7 inches possible. I’m happy with what we are getting, just enough to brighten our day. Yesterday was the warmest day that we will see for awhile, with…
We could actually see the sun rise this morning in spite of many clouds, but since then, our sky has completely cleared up. Unfortunately, it’s not going to last, but at least we know that the sun still exists. Temperatures won’t warm up much today and there is snow on the way for tomorrow. Local forecasts are calling for 2-4 inches for my area. Our highs for next week are expected to be below average with highs only in the…
We had light snow showers most of our Sunday which left about an inch of snow cover. A little melted but we still have enough to brighten our day. I’m hearing that we could see a little sun later and that would surely be nice. Temps won’t be warming up much, however, but without too much wind, it shouldn’t be a bad day. Our 11:30 AM temperature is 32°F, the humidity is 83%, and skies are cloudy. Winds are from…
