  1. I’ve got a friend in Venice Beach CA trying to convince me to ski Mammoth with him on the 4th of July. They’ll be open
  2. I’m sure there is some green stuff under the blanket of snow imby just waiting for it’s opportunity.
  3. Snow cover especially the duration of 10”+ depths definitely is what gave Minneapolis the severe winter rating. While it hasn’t been as “mild” here as the rest of the sub, I certainly wouldn’t say we saw our normal share of harsh winter temperatures this year.
  4. I guess I’m in the nonsensical camp because I’ll take wall to wall deep winter from 10/31-4/30 year in and year out. That being said, 40 and sunny felt pretty freaking awesome today. Our final ski trip of the season is planned for Lutsen MN 4/22-23 then it can be spring.
  5. Perfect spring skiing day in the Midwest.
  6. Got down to 7 here again last night. Should have a solid recovery to around 40 today.
  7. High of 27 today. That March sunshine sure feels good. MSP recorded 0.5” of snow today, mostly in the overnight hours bringing the season total to 81.3”
  8. The Chanhassen NWS site is up to 91.8” with a 12” depth. Very impressive.
  9. Light dusting of snow overnight to slick things up. The glacier lives with 5-10” of snowpack in place. Overnight low of 7. Might be our final single digit temp of the season.
  10. WSW 4-7” back home, feels muggy at 8,000’ in Colorado this morning.
  11. If I can make it out of Colorado tomorrow evening during a storm I come home to another snowstorm. 18z GFS had that look.
  12. 2.1” is what I’ve seen for Minneapolis. It looks like it’s been snowing all day so that total might be a bit higher. 80.1” is the seasonal total now.
  13. Todays storm has brought Minneapolis up to 79.8” season to date. 7th snowiest all time. Still snowing per webcams
  14. 3” in Minneapolis, and puking snow in Aspen CO.
  15. Taxiing for takeoff and the snow just started.
  16. Looks like 3-5” across the twin cities today. Haven’t been tracking this one as closely as usual, heading to the airport for a week in Colorado and the remnants of an AR event hitting this weekend have my attention.
  17. Mood flakes+ all day added up to 0.4” by 6pm bumping Minneapolis up to 75.1” on the season. We had a decent band work through between 630-8 that should add some more to the total. As a harbinger to the date on the calendar very little accumulated on paved surfaces until the sun set.
  18. My dad calls Minnesota “diet Canada”
  19. Working in @mnchaserguy neck of the woods at hwy-65 and 99th St today. It’s been solid white rain for a few hours. Maybe a couple tenths of new accumulation.
  20. I’m with @A-L-E-KDallas climate sounds terrible to me. Flip the number of days above 100 with days below 32 and maybe we can talk.
  21. We’ll take all we can get. The lakes need to recover from 2 summers of extreme drought.
  22. 2008 was relentless. I was working in the Minocqua WI area that summer. RIP Lake Delton.
  23. Probably can cut these totals in half, unless this is counting the weekend snow potential. (Which it doesn’t)
  24. Can’t always be right. I’ll take my WWA and be happy.
  25. I’ve got an 8am flight Thursday so a weaker storm is fine by me. I just want us to break the seasonal snow record.
