Friday night we had a dusting of snow. Tonight I shoveled 18" of snow off the deck, and we are supposed get 6 to 8" tonight. This isn't January is it?

The lower 48 has received our winter weather. We have above average temps and the little snow we got melted off.

I'm at our lake farm in no. WI (a little less than an hour south of Ashland, WI). It never got out of single digits today, and is headed for -6F tonight.
The storm last week dumped a little over 20", and it has snowed a little every day since, and is right now. The lake our farm is on is frozen; some folks already fishin' the hard water for late fall walleye. (Is is still fall?).

My wife lived in Anchorage for 35 years. She says that every time the Pacific got one of those typhoons that moved north, AK would get a blast of warm air and all the snow would melt. However, they cause the jet stream to move south and freeze the tails off the northern 48.

This is our 2ndwinter since we moved from AK to MI. AK has had 1 mild winter and working on a 2nd. Mi has had 1 hard winter and working on a 2nd. Do you see the connection?
My challenge to all Alaskans and all Michiganders, who's gonna pay more to keep us in what state.

How could you go wrong with either? The UP of MI is a special place. Few actually know its beauty, however I'm not sure it could every compare with AK, or many places in Canada. IMHO, payment to keep you is in your heart. I could live in any place that has the beauty of what these north country places have to offer. There are many that would not even consider what we find to be beautiful. Enduring the cold is not for the thin-skinned. I'm a Great Lakes guy. I've fished and boated them all. I'll admit that a short trip to the Gulf has always been a welcome break from it, but my heart is in the north. I've been lucky to have been around aircraft for my entire life and able take it all in.

Five inches of heavy wet snow and eight degrees here, supposed to be almost 60 degrees by the weekend. I haven't had electric since around 0900 on the seventeenth. Hope it is back on by the time I get home in the morning or I will have to drag out the generator and hook the fridge and freezer up for a shot of juice.

Friday night we had a dusting of snow. Tonight I shoveled 18" of snow off the deck, and we are supposed get 6 to 8" tonight. This isn't January is it? You guys doin' some serious baitin' for our comrade Rancho-Azzho.... Any guess on a time line??  But I digress - yeah, it's a somewhat early onset of winter.. What's bad is that all the heavy snow north of me will be hell on the deer herd. That, and the wolf packs will further thin the population.. Reports from those I talk to every day in town say that deer hunting in that area (Webster, Cushing, Minong etc) is nearly impossible unless they're wearin' snow shoes. I know the area well - it's where I normally hunt. The country is rough enough when there's 6-8".. Deepest I've personally hunted in up there was about 10-12".. I can't imagine what 18"+ would be like..

You guys got hit pretty decently. I stopped by my folks tonight he got plowed out this AM and tonight he about another 8" or so. Being only 10 miles north of you, we didn't get as much as you guys.
Don't worry, in April it will melt.

It's not bad but let's just say it's a real hard adjustment to MI life.
