  1. 30's coming up this week will feel nice. Then back to more avg again. Avg's slowly, but steadily climbing now.
  2. Yeah, that's nature for ya. Likes to swing hard at times. It's a year apart, tho. Just ended up that way. That's what makes wx fun Winter temps for our region are quite variable. Standard deviation for anoms is quite big for the season ~ 5-6 K (For those who might not understand, -3 to 3 K would be 6 K spread). Summer runs ~2-3 K (-1.5 to 1.5 K spread).
  3. Prelim data in for Jan, and coming in a little shy of the top 5. But fully expect as more data comes in from various data sets during the month that that will change with at least a 0.5 increase, putting the final number easily top 5. Here are the 5 & 10 year trend charts for the month.
  4. An ok forecast. Good in the north with the front, but energy in the south staying there. Wasn't sure if it would make it more north or not, and it won't. High pressure keeping it at bay. GHD icing for areas south of us.
  5. -25 to -30 across the Arrowhead region this morning. Looking at my anomaly chart for Jan, 1880 is the record year at 7.35 (1901-2000 base), so we are going to be rivaling that, I do believe, for our region. Can't wait to see what it ends up being. Datasets are updated throughout the month so it may take that long to get the final result. Prelim data is usually pretty close tho.
  6. April Fool's Day looking wet. Storm watch.
  7. St Patrick's Day looking very similar to March 3rd forecast with high pressure moving in with potential energy riding along the southern areas along the boundary. March will be an interesting month this year.
  8. Next up on the calendar is Employee Appreciation Day on March 3rd. If you have a boss, drop a hint. Looks like high pressure moving through.
  9. -30's being reported across the Arrowhead region this morning. I-Falls at -34, and Ely at -33. A bitter day on tap as will be the next few before relenting at the end of the week. The cold wx should soften the strong + anoms a little. Been such a nice Jan.
  10. Probably for most of us, or least today will end up that way. Been nice.
  11. Sunny, windy, blowing snow. CAA snow showers around, too. Bye-bye nice weather for a while. BTW, ended up with 3" of snow last night. Powder blows easy.
  12. Couple inches of powder here today. Another couple Thurs nite before the blast of arctic air moves in.
  13. Polar bear wx on tap starting this weekend. Glad we haven't seen lots of this so far this season, but good stretches of bitter wx also serve a purpose in nature, just not in my nature now that I'm older LOL.
  14. Snowing here with 1" so far this morning from a separate little clipper moving SE. Winds off the lake enhancing the snow a little. The energy is washing out over WI as it moves into the bigger system you guys are getting now.
  15. 2" for this round. Much better than rain. Looks like winter again.
  16. Now the entire north shore is getting enhanced snow. Radar blossomed. BRING IT!
  17. Snow moved in this morning. Radar showing enhanced snow downtown Duluth/Superior, and Ashland with the NE winds. I should pick 2-3" today with a bit more for the enhanced zones.
  18. 2-3" of mostly lake effect for me. Refresh the snowpack a little after the the rainy weather we just had. Then the colder weather, but still above average will turn the snowpack into ice.
  19. 0.46" of rain yesterday. Turned to a very wet, light snow last night. Water logged snowpack with puddles everywhere. Just like March. When the pack refreezes, you'll be able to walk on it.
  20. "Waste of a good winter storm" is balls on. Frz rn with a little snow up my way. Oh well, better luck next time. Lots of winter to go yet.
  21. Sorry about that. Guess I should have added state. Rough time down there, especially just before MLK day. (MLK Selma march if you remember that historical event)
  22. Loving the milder weather, but Selma sure is hurting. Nailed hard. Next weeks system should be a slop fest here along the shore with inland areas doing well.
  23. Looks like a pretty good call for this forecast. Mainly rain, tho, with some snow along the N & W edges. The SE potential I'd indicated looks to be the trough extending back from the system off the east coast, so not really a good call there timing wise.
  24. Light snow started this morning. Been a really nice start to the month. Yesterday had heavy overcast with a light fog/mist at times. Keeping the heat bill in check with the milder weather.
