  1. Ice quickly forming in the bays around the Lakes.
  2. Cold morning with -sd's along the shore and -10's inland with some -20's. Heavy sea smoke. Looking forward to some snow action starting tomorrow.
  3. Thinking 8-12" potential along the shore with these 2 classic Alberta clippers. Lake enhancement will really help here, especially for the higher terrain with the 2nd one, which is pretty strong. Track could change some, tho, making a big difference. The boundary between the 2 may allow for some LES banding to develop Tues between systems. Something to watch.
  4. Clear blue skies this morning. -sd/sd's around the area with some -10's around I-Falls. Nice to have the Sun shining. Lots of cloudy days in the Winter. Reflected light really brightens things up (almost too much sometimes).
  5. Tuesday's clipper looks pretty strong, and should provide a good 3-6+" in MN/WI. ?? is for me...Lake Superior? What will it provide? Fickle beast
  6. Cold, snowy start to Winter keeps the flies away
  7. BRRR! -10's with a couple -20's this morning. -sd's along the shoreline. -5 here in town (ranked 4th coldest). Dark over the lake with heavy sea smoke. Radar picking up an LES band over the water. BTW, the Sun just made it over the sea smoke. Takes a couple hrs after sunrise. -12 Duluth (3rd) -18 Hibbing (1st beat -17 1991) -11 Brainerd (1st beat -2 1991) -9 Ashland (T 1st -9 1972) -12 St Cloud (T 3rd)
  8. 0.2" of fluff in town with up to 2" around NE MN. Turning bitter tonight. -sd's to -10's. Even along the shoreline will dip below 0.
  9. -SN falling this morning along the North Shore ahead of the clipper. That snow should be moving through later today sometime, and stay on the light side. Snow machines continue to hum along this week for the ski hills.
  10. Ended Nov with 0.83" of precip (26th driest). Oct-Nov saw only 1.47" (10th driest with avg being 5.21"). Oct was 10th driest as well. But Nov was 11th snowiest at 9.5". Interesting, but believable, because along the shore we usually get mixed precip due to warm lake temps. That LES event really bumped us up, but had a higher S/L ratio. 18:1 was what NWS DLH reported which kept overall precip low.
  11. Chilly morning with sd's inland (0 at Hibbing), and teens on the shore. Cold, clipper pattern the next few days. Should see some below zero readings this week around the area here, especially on clear, calm mornings. DLH is good at underestimating those. Not unreasonable to add another 5 to 10d colder to what they put out.
  12. Let it snow, LET IT SNOW!! Winter starting on time this year.
  13. 5.9" is the final tally. Awesome hit by that LES band. 2.9" in an hour n 30 min. Pretty healthy snow rate at about 2"/hr.
  14. In my email exchange with NWS DLH, they said they have 18:1 there. This stuff is very light, and coming heavy still.
  15. Just reported 3.0" with heavy snow still falling, and more coming. Good band!
  16. Nice band right over where it should be. Hope it lasts a while.
  17. Band drifted into the shore, and it is developing more heading right into my direction. Could be a decent hit here depending on how long this lasts. SN bordering +SN currently.
  18. LES band developed here this aftrn. Light snow along the North Shore. Heavier down towards Duluth/Superior.
  19. Glad to see some good snowstorm action for you guys down there early in the season. Usually it's us N guys that see all the action this time of year, except for some LES events.
  20. Snow showers around here. Yesterday aftrn had a couple snow squalls that reduced vis to 1/4 mile or less really fast. They were brief. Nice to have some wx action for a change these past few days.
  21. Winds into the upper 30's this morning. Snow been blowing around pretty good. N WI over into the UP getting hit hard. They already had around a foot early this morning. Radar not picking up W UP, but it would look the same.
  22. Reports coming with 6-13" away from the Lake to 3-5" along the shoreline. Decent storm. LES should be intense over in the UP later today into tomorrow.
