BowMeHunter Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Record high of 60 degrees on this date last yr... Sun was nice today and really heated up the ice shanty on its own but when hole hopping outside jigging the wind made so if you weren't dressed warm it was chilly. Light wind days have been few and far between this winter. Only 4.5" of snow for JAN last yr and only 10.3" on the winter despite over 5" of QPF.. This winter has had less than 3" of qpf and almost 41" of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Winds really seem to pick up this evening. Nice day today. Almost no lake clouds this afternoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Still near 20° at this hour. Bit breezy, but definitely more comfortable being outside now. Car warms up a lot faster at these temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car warms up a lot faster at these temperatures. I just leave mine running overnight... I think i've read in areas of Siberia, you can't turn your vehicle off because it won't start again.

I have heard that. I think people in Alaska put heaters in their garages at least. Just went above the days high from earlier - now 21°. Snow is not fluffy at all now.

BowMeHunter Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 surprised to come home and have no ice on sidewalk from snow melting off the roof with the full sun but i suppose after just looking it was only in the mid teens at noon.. seemed warmer on the lake but i guess after the cold teens does seem a lot warmer than it is. couple more weeks it will be dripping for sure in the 20's with sun. not much fluff here either but that's not becuse one day with a intra hr 20 degrees.

A-L-E-K Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 radar/recent model trends look good for a 30-60 minute period of snow later this afternoon...enough to cover up the patches of yellow and brown. Snow pack hanging pretty tight around 4-6" here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 NAM and GFS were too wet with today's snow here. Euro showed a few hundredths of precip, and we only picked up 0.3" here. EDIT: Was just enough to get us to the 30" mark for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
