90% chance of snow. 1 – 3″ possible. Low Zero. NW wind around 10 mph. Wind Chill reading -12.
Had a total of a bit more than 6″ of snow in my backyard. Grand Rapids recorded 7″ – the snowiest Christmas since 1990. And we’re bound and determined to set some records for cold temperatures this coming week.
It’s brutal cold for us this week as the Arctic Air coming tumbling down from Canada. Toss in some snow and this will be one miserable week. Nothing pleasant to report about it…well, maybe I could see some positive in it all that we’re not involved in a blizzard, but other than that? Nothing. Bitter cold and snow. Just plain lousy weather.
