Trust me. This is not what I wanted to wake up to. Last year in late May, did some excellent morel hunting in the far southern part of the UP just north of Menominee... driving down back roads you could see their golden heads in the sun, poking up through the grass in ditches. Easiest pickins ever. Not to mention the wild Asparagus.

Measured 3” on the grill and still coming down. Should reach 50 today and melt, however, heavier snow possible this weekend.

or palms

It's spring fed from deep below the soil but flows seasonally in the Fall and of course the spring melt. Becomes swampy in the Summer and even dry at times.

Saw them only once the years I lived in N Indiana but they seem pretty common up this way.

This year frost was only 10” in snow covered areas. Some years it’s feet thick. Just depends when the deep snow hits. There are weight and speed restrictions on the county roads now for the deep frost but even that isn’t too deep this year with the mild winter and warmth early.

Off and on snow/rain mix yesterday, and some flurries today. Nothing substantial. Northern lights are incredible tonight. Posted by MQT WFO.

A clear and calm 27... beautiful view the moon and venus in the west sky tonight as the northern lights begin to faintly dance around. Smell of wood smoke and the sound of distant coyotes yippin. Doesn't get much better.

Looks like snow will be gone a tad sooner this year (maybe another week) thanks to the crazy week of warmth, I can't imagine how long it'd have hung around if this had been a typical April. Cool one today with a high of 34 forecast but at least the uprising and violence in the coop is under control now that the ladies are able to roam, scratch around, eat worms. Thankfully they'll shit more outside too. winter coop duty- not fun. remaining snowpack
-
That’s usually about the time most of the remaining snow is gone around here.
-
everything has a price. patience is key. April is a wintry month up here.

Rain, sleet, freezing rain and lots of fog today. High reached 35. Still plenty of snow otg despite a week in the 70's and even 80. What a snowpack this year.
-
Reached 78 today... has since fallen back to 72. Snow stake says 14" but some areas have more and some have less. Roof is still melting off snow. Looks like more rain than snow will fall here this weekend but could still see 8-12". Far west UP could get clobbered. 5 years ago this week nearly 3' fell and snow depth climbed above 60"
-
wow. don't melt.
-
Lake breeze season, down to 44 which is actually the average high for today.
-
Soil core samples?
-
A beautiful 66 today then winds turned ne'rly and the temp dropped into the 40's. Should be in the 70's tomorrow before an interesting weather weekend.
-
Hit 77 here yesterday... will be quite a bit cooler today with a high near 60 as a stationary front dissects the northern and southern UP. Back to 70's tomorrow before heavy rain and possibly heavy snow over the weekend and Monday.
-
Yes, It's very dense and will be around a while. Received somewhere between 250-270" here this year. There were a few thaws but nothing substantial. They're not biting right now so all's good. The noseeum's are the worst for me and last for a few weeks at peak but linger late into Summer.
-
71 with 2 feet of snow otg. Sound of birds, flowing water, and of course the black flies showed up as soon as possible.
-
65 yesterday, 62 the day before with both nights staying in the 40’s. Snow depth down to 30”. not melting quick enough.
-
First 50 of the season today! And it looks like the temp will stay above freezing through at least Saturday. MQT is reporting 35 inches otg this morning and I have 38 inches. Will be interesting to follow the progression of the melt. Even with the warmth, I'm not convinced all this snow can melt in a week, we'll see.
-
For sure! It's been a long, rough winter for the girls. They have become so pent up, the leader of the group singled out a specific hen and started picking on her so bad, and then the entire flock joined in. Her head was a bloody scab. So... I moved her to the garage a week ago into a pen of her own and she started laying again in about 3 days and is slowly healing. The bully, however, quickly started in on another hen so I wrang her f'n neck.
-
Haven't hit 50 yet but it's gonna be in the 60's and 70's in a few days... all in for a rapid melt.
-
Cold and windy day in the mid 20's. Windchill stayed in the low teens and even single digits most of the day... went for a walk on top on the still 40 inches of snow otg.
