  1. After receiving 90-100” last winter it’s no surprise that we are getting missed this year. I’m with ya though.
  2. Getting some snow across the far southern suburbs in Prior Lake Minnesota. Looks like a general 1-2” for the twin cities.
  3. Another 0.3” overnight. Truly a winter of nickel and dimes.
  4. We’ve had a few good ones recently. April 13-16 2018 15.8” January 2-5 2023 15.1”
  5. Agreed, any accumulations whatsoever will be a score for me. We need to lay down something resembling a snowpack for the incoming arctic air.
  6. 5.5” imby? Probably a toss but it has my attention.
  7. He can keep creating new usernames all he wants. It seems banning him set the stage for an active period in the region, we can play this game again in 4-6 weeks.
  8. Fully expecting mby to see less then 4” through this period but it’s absolutely wonderful to have lots of active wx to track in the region.
  9. We got our 2 year old on skis this year. He loves sledding, and seems to really enjoy skiing too.
  10. Spitting flurries today, lakes starting to freeze up, hopefully for good.
  11. I’m in some skiing groups on FB and there is already talk of a big dog around 1/9 like it’s set in stone. The average person doesn’t know not to take the GFS verbatim a week out.
  12. The first day of 2024 in Minneapolis featured a high of 25 with 1” snow depth. Xmas weather feels like a distant memory.
  13. Got my final ski day of 2023 in today and conditions were better then expected. Shoutout to Welch Village for still having a dozen runs worth skiing open, even after the deluge. It’s been a rough start to the season but they have invested heavily in snowmaking and it’s the best skiing south of Duluth.
  14. 1.60” storm total here. Might add a few hundredths more.
  15. Minneapolis set a record high again today reaching 54, breaking the old record of 52. I actually did some yard work in a t-shirt today. Steady light rain will be ongoing all night. This was a fun one to track even though it was wet instead of white.
  16. Our ~32 hour rain event is underway. Temps maxed out at 54 degrees. Minneapolis seems to be in the sweet spot to end up in the warm sector longer then almost every other area in the Midwest. The cold tongue punches quite a bit southeast of us.
  17. As expected the record high for today was broken at 3am. Currently we’ve surged up to 50, models are trending the heaviest rain totals to my west now.
  18. 12/24 is low hanging fruit for high temperature records in Minneapolis. Current record is 46, the forecast high tomorrow is 55. The low tomorrow might be warmer then the previous record high. Last year Minneapolis stayed below zero on 12/22-23 and only rose to 7 on 12/24.
  19. Be careful. Someone drowned in Northwest Minnesota overnight after their ATV fell through the ice.
  20. The upside to the 2”+ of rainfall we are going to see tomorrow is deep soil moisture will get replenished. 2 summers of flash drought have really sapped soil moisture. The downside is what it will do to my ski hill.
