Friday, Jan. 12, 2018 South West Michigan – Snow Is Back, Warm Up Gone

Currently 21 with an average wind from the WNW dropping that down to feeling like 7. Dew Point 18, Barometer 30.06, Humidity 86%, Visibility 9 mi, Sunrise 8:12 am, Sunrise 5:29 pm.  Winter Weather Advisory in effect. 70% chance of snow today. 1-3″ possible. High in the mid 20s. N winds 10 – 20 mph with gusts to 30.

Partly cloudy with a low near 10. N winds 10 – 15 with gusts to 30.

Our January thaw has departed leaving us with a coating of ice that has met it’s demise at least on the roads with salt from the truck where available. On sidewalks, etc. I assume folks had best beware ’cause it’s not going anywhere and it will have a coat of snow over it to add to the fun.

For a few days, we got our share of that welcome wave of warm air that swept across the country, closely followed by the cold and snow again. It was refreshing to be on the front edge of that. Felt so good to get outside without shivering. We either set a record or was close yesterday. I had 55 degrees in my tiny backyard. Not today. Big difference getting back into the reality of winter.
