  1. Power went out here a little after 5 this morning and is still out. Snow is currently spreading in from the west as the temp drops toward freezing. Lots of sticks and small branches all over the place may just have to wait until spring for cleanup. Solid snow cover still in place but it's pretty battered looking. Sleeping w/o a fan is the worst.
  2. 2015 was a pretty slow start with just a few inches on the ground Christmas day. Honestly tho, the snowpack doesn't really start gaining traction until January most years and usually peaks around 45" ish in early to mid March. The deepest was Late-February 2019 with 60 + inches after over 100" in February alone. Cabin up on the Peshekee Grade that year.
  3. Up to 40 degrees. Pretty rapid thaw underway and what a shame too, had a very nice, dense base otg. It won't melt off totally but what a bummer. Waiting for the winds later tonight and tomorrow morning. Usually high winds like this are from the west or northwest/north. I don't recall having winds of 60+ from the south before... lot's of trees, makes me anxious.
  4. Looks like a foot has fallen here so far with a couple more inches likely. Ratios ended up being closer to 8:1 instead of the forecasted 11:1. Storm has not disappointed tho... the snow was so heavy and wet it sounded like rain hitting the windows overnight. There's 24-27" otg. looking out the front door into my yard facing north. I'll snap some more pics when I wake up fully.
  5. Snow just starting to arrive imby. Expecting a foot tonight and 4-6" tomorrow. Should see some really nice rates later on so I'll be up late.
  6. After trending southward for a couple days, looks like most models have shifted back north a little. Beginning to think the chances for a fresh foot of snow are becoming more likely. If so, that would put the snow depth here in excess of 2 feet by late Saturday and with the freeze and thaw pattern upcoming, it will likely harden up the snowpack and create a little extra staying power. At any rate, I don't expect a complete melt off up here next week..
  7. Even more depressing, unless something changes will be the horrible drought next summer.
  8. After an overnight high of 29, it was downhill all day. Temp has fallen to 6 degrees this evening with a fine, low visibility snow falling. At the current rate of snowfall, it might add up to another 1/2" overnight. Between yesterday and today, I measured 10.5-11" of new snow. Many areas of the far western and eastern UP saw a foot from this storm, and combined with the winds it has caused significant issues on the backroads that haven't been officially plowed yet. Deep winter night in the north.
  9. Very heavy snow for the past hour or better at my house. Same band hitting Marquette now.
  10. Saw 5.5" of wet snow yesterday then towards dark the dry slot crept in enough to end the heavy precip for most of the night, then early this morning snow and wind moved in with a vengeance, with another (estimated) 3" falling since then and still coming down but not nearly as heavy. Should see a total of 4-6" today. Both snow stakes reading 15" otg and my season total just under 3 feet now, which is probably pretty close to average for my location.
  11. Lake shadow squashes almost everything here. Occasional ring of fire delivers.
  12. Stayed in the low 20's with snow showers all day that ended up amounting to around 2". Tonight It's 16 degrees with close to calm winds and there's a smell of snow in the air. First winter storm of the season incoming.
  13. In the beginning stages of having a pole barn built so I can count on all of that snow and then some, I'm sure.
  14. It's been snowing fairly regular over this way. Season total around 2 feet so far with 7-8" otg. Biggest "storm" was 10" back on Nov 13th-14th... coldest temp so far has been 4 degrees on the 23rd. Winter has set in.
  15. Nothing super heavy here just persistent type snow, but it did get a bit heavier overnight and I picked up 5". There's a solid foot of snow otg now even after rain and 37 Wednesday. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
  16. I've had 17.5" since Nov 1st. This time last year I had received over 80" and had a depth of 41". As of today, the season total here is 46" and a current depth of 5". Frost is already 30" deep.
  17. The subs snowiest month will be April. We all know it.
  18. Karma has come knocking. The COVID thread must go! Delete the COVID thread and it will snow.
  19. With a few inches of fresh snow and late partial clearing, temp dropped to 3 overnight. brrr
  20. It's a start... Winter conditions have arrived a lil bit. 18 with a w/c of 13, has snowed 2" overnight. Temp should continue falling to around 12 degrees by noon... 4.5" otg
  21. That's your takeaway from his post? You are incongruent.
  22. Are you leaving the board or what? Weather is cyclical, we'll have good winter weather again. I hope you're able to move to N Wisconsin sooner than you planned. Everything is Okay, it's early.
