Wow, so pretty. Merry Christmas Josh!

31 with a dense fog advisory, Ice fog Covering the pines. Merry Christmas all you guys!

There's been a lot actually the past several years, although my little corner here has not been under 200" a season since I've lived here. One or two years it was close and the depth only peaked around 30" one year, think it was 2016-17.

Less than 100" by January first is just average.

Point has 46 for a high tomorrow which would be record breaking for this area. kinda reminds me of a two week period or so last winter where it was dead and mild but then winter came roaring back.

Last winter was the deepest snow I had ever seen imby. 60 plus inches in late feb. At that depth, it's pretty much impossible to measure, just feel encapsulated by it a little bit. I still have high hopes for this winter.

100% why I live where moose outpopulate people

-8 tonight as high clouds begin to move in... so excited for the mid-30's this weekend.

8 degrees with snow showers... Several inches of snow the past 24 hours here. Pic from a squall earlier today (lasted 5 minutes). Must be somewhere around 80" for the season so far.

Columbus climo is s**t to begin with tho.

16 degrees, snowing pretty good tonight... probably 3" down. Warm fire.

Hey... My house sits at 1600' and the high spot on my property is about 1640'. If roads/weather are good, it take about 25 min to get to Marquette. It's actually closer to go to Big Bay but as you know, that's a giant dead-end. The average depth here at my house is around 32", but I imagine some areas west of here, too remote to get to this time of year and even higher in elevation, may have a little more possibly. The highest reported depth I can find up here is Painsdale at 37" and even MQT has a 28" depth. Unless a giant thaw happens or it just stops snowing, I can see where a 5' peak depth may happen again this year.

Went to po box this morning. Took a couple pics of my road. It's been pretty much one vehicle at a time for a couple weeks. Luckily, rarely pass anyone on it this time of the year.

After a cold start below zero, managed a high of 20 today with around 6" of 17:1 snow... fell moderately most of the afternoon. Snowpack is just over 30"... very dense and deep for this early in winter with around 5" liquid equiv.

Temp was -11 here this morning with a high of 6... -3 now but should begin to rise with snow moving in by daybreak, 4-5" in the forecast. Deep winter is here.

Whatever falls on my property... mostly oak, maple and birch. Tonight I'm burning oak from a downed tree in 2017.

-3 currently, with the w/c down around -15. Def gonna be on stove patrol tonight.

Snowy, windy, temps down in the teens.. snow has come down very hard at times with some north wind lake enhancement.

R.I.P.

I'm am pretty snowed in up here... haven't been to town since Wednesday. Models were pretty consistent in showing snowfall in feet around here. Received 16-17" as a storm total here, and I see MQT recorded pretty close to the same with 16.5" last night and today. I've had nearly 40" the past 5 days and my two snow stakes are measuring 32 and 34 inches otg. Winter so far seems to be picking up right where last year left off.

It's a lot of work. Still snowing nicely with over a foot now and a few more inches possible... picnic table

Looks like 10" or so of super dense snow fell overnight and still coming down hard... in excess of 2' on the ground now. Looking out on the deck as it gets daylight. Haven't shoveled out there all week and I've had over 30".

A few pics from yesterday. Watches issued for the next round...

Oh yes... I enjoy taking care of the birds all year... woodpeckers and black caps mostly, they're the only ones that stick around. Ended up with far less snow than predicted. Instead of 10:1 slr's, it was more like 7-8:1. Without power, I fell asleep pretty quick once it got dark so I didn't get a final measurement but this morning the the driveway has 18-20" of wind-packed concrete you can pretty much walk on top of and it was clear prior. Still no power... felt like the longest night ever, so quiet and dark. I'm addicted to my fan I'm pretty sure! Happy Thanksgiving guys!

15” so far (halfway to 30” forecast). Power’s out, road snowed over completely, no tracks at all. Gotta conserve my battery now.
