We are looking at one heck of a midnight high tonight, with temps perhaps ten degrees greater than our daytime highs tomorrow. -

Low of 39. Perhaps some of us get to wake up to a whitened yard tomorrow morning and then hoping for some vibrant tracking come the last week of January. Onward. -

Feels like a good time to remind everyone of the following, all of which is taken from MU's exactly 100 years of snowfall record-keeping. MU only averages a 12"+ snowfall about once every three years and only averages a little over two events per year with >4". They average ~9.5 measurable snowfalls a year at an average accumulation of 2.86", for a yearly average ~27". Over 75% of the accumulated snowfall comes from events <4". 32% of the snow falls in Feb, 30% in Jan, 17% Dec, 16% Mar, 3% Nov, and 1% in April (yes I'm aware these add up to 99 and not 100 ha). Leanest decade was the 50's with an average annual snowfall of only 21.6". Current decade is averaging only 14.8" but that is coming on the heels of one of our snowiest from 2010-2019 with an average of 35.5". Snowiest decade was the 60s with an annual average of 36.2". -

Low of 26 with a trace of snowfall. Also, I had .45" from Saturday's rain. I've been a bit out of the loop but it seems the potential for a big hit late this week has diminished. Always more ways to make an out than get on base. Oh well, I still think we'll see several periods with flakes in the air and the cold looks to stay mostly entrenched. That's good enough for me. Onward. -

This has to be the craziest wild card weekend of all time. -

Packers have me a broken man. I need snow to lift me up. -

Low of 40 with .05” of rain. Am I crazy for thinking we have a pretty decent shot of a snow squall-ish type shower tomorrow? -

Canadian is also a nice hit and Euro is a close miss. The next week of tracking should be fun. -
