    Blizzard Warning Houghton & Keweenaw

    Ended up with roughly 4-6", hard to gauge as the wind has blown it in various directions & packed it tight. No where near 1-3' Thank God! Nice to be spared for once.

    Winter Storm Watch - N Houghton & Keweenaw Counties

    We are getting pummeled right now. Started at 3 am and has not let up since. Winds are crazy, visibility is less than an eighth of a mile. Schools were canceled, NMU closed and plowing is minimal. So far we've had 9"+ and no sign of letting up. It doesn't look like I've plowed after 3 hours...

    Winter Storm Watch - N Houghton & Keweenaw Counties

    NWS upgraded to a Winter Storm Warning, expected snowfall remains unchanged as well as winds. Snowfall rates could be 1-2" per hour. To add further insult to injury, Sun into Monday's storm looks to be even more intense with the possibility of a Blizzard. Crap! For what it's worth, snowfall to...

    I know better, I'm just burned out. This winter has been a temperature roller coaster with a lot of wet heavy snows. A lot of ice everywhere making walking treacherous when shoveling. Winter here is a job in itself & this one has been a lot of work & lets not forget winter here can last well...

    KEWEENAW SNOW FORECAST THIS WEEK ??

    Tough to say, the euro & gfs are worlds apart right now & local forecasts are all over the place. Even after the warm spell & occasional rains we still have 3' plus on the ground. Personally, I don't want anymore, it can stay south of us, conditions will set up with the colder temps & grooming...

    3" of wet snow after the early morning rain here in the Keweenaw. Actually had to plow for the first time in a week. Rain likely in the early a.m. followed by 48 deg and windy on Sunday. Snow possibly by midweek next week. Go figure.

    This is just a suggestion

    Yes, the frustration continues with the Discussion Boards unavailability. This is the feature that suffers on the website, everything else is accessible but, contains nothing new. The rampant overabundance of ads continue, worse on mobile devices, but, still a huge issue no matter the device...

    The western UP will see some rain as well tonight into part of Saturday. We still have a lot of snow, the issue with it now is the warmer days & cooler nights which makes a lot of ice where it doesn't belong & the base is like a brick until it warms a bit.
