  1. Yes, but the frost never really went at all that deep, so, much of the snow melt will soak in much quicker. Nonetheless, a wet start to the Spring season to be sure. But lack of rain later in the Spring could allow things to dry up quickly. Just depends.
  2. As far as snow goes, yes, and that away from the lake in the higher terrain. Temps have been so-so. Not as much bitter weather this year. Duluth, and TH 7NW are pushing for snow season records as seen in my sig below. Will have to see the final tally on this storm to see how much closer they get.
  3. Took a couple hours for saturation, but snow finally made it. Game on!
  4. The updated snowcast has slightly less totals for the region, and slightly greater totals along the North Shore (Silver Bay area especially). Some LES has shown up on radar already this morning between here, and Silver bay which is the reason for the bigger totals along the shore. Winds are kicking up this morning, and still waiting on the snow, which is on the doorstep in Duluth.
  5. Just been light snow up my way. Heavier bands come off the lake now and again, but nothing much to speak of. Looking forward to the weekend. BTW, maybe I'm a little late to the show, but we seem to be missing someone...permanently?
  6. Looking good for the weekend. 1-2" today then 12" possible over the weekend. Higher terrain will do well.
  7. May starts off with wet, stormy weather (a little snow in the N parts?). Actually the last day April into May 1st-2nd
  8. Yes it is a little different up this way. Canada starts here ay! LOL
  9. Duluth could very well challenge it snow season record this year. Already over 100", and it can snow into early May. Record is in my sig below.
  10. Winter ending on the warmer side. Been pretty avg to above since 2014. 5/10 yr trends respectively.
  11. Feb ending on the warmer side this year. 5/10 yr trends respectively. EDIT: Just a note here, but what I believed would be a top 5 Jan, ended up not being the case. As other datasets reported, they came in lower than the prelim data, so 9th on my chart is what it ended up being. Still a warm one tho.
  12. 1" for me, then it all stays on the south end of the Lake, 3-7" so far for them. Bust! Still might get another inch. Let the king roar Friday! or might be another flop for me. MSP should be in good shape, tho.
  13. Just open a bag of sugar, and that might jog your memory...Oh yeah, it's white stuff LOL
  14. Snow just entering Lake Superior to my south. Later start than first thought, but it's slowly coming
  15. Less robust than a couple days ago, but looks good to me. LES will be a wild card though. They do have a tough time with it sometimes. That has never changed in my lifetime in this area, but they have improved in recent years.
  16. At least you got ease of mind when it comes to the heavy snow on the roof. If I remember, someone showed you the weight distribution was good to go, and no worries last year. Any issue with ice damming along the eaves?
  17. Another 6" possible here on Monday. Seems we have a pride of lions roaming around to start off March
  18. Just light snow now as the system winds down here. Wind blew the snow around quite a bit, but 6" (closer to 7' depending how long light snows last) looks to be a fair assessment. 12" between here and Duluth was reported. That was fun to watch. NWS Duluth had advisory out for me, but I emailed them a couple obs reports, and they upped to warning. It was pretty bad there for a while.
  19. Would be interesting to see data from the decades prior to the 70's. Being a colder/snowier decade as the start point doesn't reflect the fullness of the record. At least go back to 30's-40's when airport measurements started to keep things a little more homogeneous.
  20. My forecast good for the 2nd. Day off again. Big mess for the 3rd for the southern sub with energy making it's way along the boundary. Of course when I don't mention the potential for it, it comes in a big way. LOL March roaring in with snows in the north, and rain/ice/snow in the south in the first few days of the month.
  21. Snowing heavy now, and winds up to 20-25 mph bringing vis down pretty good. Hwy 61 between here, and Duluth must be pretty bad right now.
