MQT's total as of this morning 7 am 19" 3.25 LE Got dumped on here last night. Haven't been out yet but getting ready to start clearing snow. Just looking out, it's deep. Snowed all night.

Solid band of snow has been parked here along the higher terrain ridge for a few hours now. Should do well tonight. I do notice it’s a bit west of the weather office so idk how they’ll fare.

For sure. Herman over to Eagle Mine to my area received a foot overnight, with me seeing another 8 today. Herman and Eagle mine will report in the morning their totals for today. South east of here Mqt received 8.3 overnight and 6.1 today with a LE of 2.5”. if in fact I see 6-8 tonight I will exceed the 2 foot mark so still a great late season storm. MQT might break 20” as well. Had ratios been the 10:1 expected, the bigger totals would have panned out here in the higher terrain. Marquette the city was just a bust all together.

Blizzard warning replaced this afternoon with a wsw for 6-8 inches tonight as snow has picked back up the past couple hours after a lull this afternoon. Ratios today were closer to 6-7:1 so totals will be much lower than forecast but the snow is extremely dense. A couple pics from earlier today.

Went out for a quick measure on the drive. Most models have another 15-18". Looking at webcams down in Marquette, there's little to no accumulation. Same from talking to a friend in Big Bay. Snowbelt here getting hammered.

Yes, May 2nd and 3rd just under 3 feet fell. It was a very damaging storm tree wise. Been coming down heavy all night. Just glancing out, from what I can see looks like at least 10 inches has fallen. Point has up to 24 more in total with the morning AFD stating another 10-12 possible by early afternoon. Winds have been gusty but nothing out of hand, at least here. Stoked the fire, gonna go back to bed for a while lol

There’s several in Marquette, use to be one in Big Bay at the motel but none that I’m aware of up this way. This area and the area where the heaviest snow will fall is pretty remote

Somewhere in northern Marquette County is probably going to see 4 feet of snow. Latest NAM isn't backing down on the insane totals like you'd normally see as an event gets closer. 12z to 18z upped my total from 44 to 50 inches with pretty much 10:1 ratios. I'm as prepared as I can be. Going to be an interesting 36 hours.

I've had around 125 inches. My area averages around 250+ inches maxing out just northwest of here around Eagle Mine near 300 inches. Winds on the increase but that's about it right now.

Marquette and Baraga counties upgraded to a blizzard warning before it's even started.

12z NAM has 44 inches here. Geni ready to go, tractor gassed up, firewood stocked, roast cooking. Still need to run to town for a few things as I imagine roads out this way will be impassible for a couple days with tree damage.

NAM and FV3 caved and are def juiced. 40 and 51 inches verbatim with 4 to 5 inches LE. If this even comes close to verifying, with the expected wind, it will be a crippling storm.

Every time there's a big late season snow, the "Mother's Day" storm of 1990 always comes up. I believe Negaunee received 24 inches and apparently was all melted by late afternoon the following day.

A good chunk of models have 2-3 feet of snow by Thursday noon. RAP pretty aggressive with 3 feet at the end of its run and still snowing. Seem to get these high qpf/wet snows every April. Last year nearly 3 feet fell May 2nd and 3rd. If all goes according, this will push me over the 150 inch mark. Still around 100 inches below average however.

Got pretty nasty here last night between 8 and midnight. Had a two day total of 8".

20 with snow showers, heavy at times since yesterday. Several inches have fallen here, up to around AAA road and over to Eagle Mine. Point has upwards of 7 more inches by morning. 20's for highs today and tomorrow, bumping up to low 30's Tuesday before falling to the upper teens and low 20's Wednesday and Thursday. A wintry week for sure but nothing shocking as March is usually the 5th month of winter in the n woods.

Rain showers and 37 this morning, will change over to snow later this afternoon. Could see 6-8" over the weekend. Cool, unsettled, possibly snowy pattern in the offing. At this point I'm good with any precip, rain or snow.

MBY coldest spot pretty much east of the front range this afternoon, sitting at 32 degrees at 2:30 with low lake clouds firmly in place. Colder pattern promises some snow around here this weekend, could be substantial in areas.

Gusty winds 24 degrees, some lake enhanced snow skirting Marquette County today.

Record high of 55 yesterday and a record low min overnight of 33. The days are growing longer, snow is melting, and the lakes are thawing. Spring is coming early. Yesterday was my last day on the ice this year. Getting a little too soupy for my comfort. Usually can safely be on the ice until the last of April. Beautiful sunset, Lake Bancroft in Ishpeming.

What's great tho about living in a UP snowbelt, even in the weakest of weak winter's, by most people's standards it was still winter, and for once I'll be happy to not see the snow linger into May. There might actually be a spring this year. But yeah, it is a little unbelievable how little snow there is.

-3 this morning with an afternoon high of 19. Rollercoaster ride in temps continue tomorrow, back in the upper 40's. Did receive a windswept 5 inches of snow after the record warm temps a couple days ago. Snow stake measuring a foot otg. Deepest snow in the UP is at the Eagle Mine co-op site just nw of here where they're reporting 19 inches otg and the Munising co-op with 18 inches.

Calm wind has now become ne at around 5 mph. Temp has gone from 55 to 47 in 20 minutes. Fun while it lasted, time to close the windows and light a fire. Temps should be in the mid-30's in a couple hours.

55 degrees here in far northern Marquette County, feels amazing. Colder air just starting to make its way to the north shore of Superior. WWA goes into effect this evening. Will probably see 5-8" in my local snowbelt. Still a solid but softening 8 inches otg here in the woods.

Screw the snow at this point. I'm full steam ahead with spring.
