Although the Weather Channel seems determined never to mention the state of Michigan – they concentrate on the South or the East for the most part – unless California has something interesting going on – checking elsewhere it looks like Winter Storm Kassandra may give us a glancing blow as it passes to the south and east of us. I think we can definitely count on some snow. A couple of inches anyway. Off and on snow showers, doesn’t really look like any great amount, seems to be our future. You know how that goes, sometimes Lake Effect can kick in and add to the numbers, but we never know until and unless that happens.  But as for brightness – you have to find or make your own – cause Mother Nature isn’t in a sharing mood. The sun is definitely among the missing elements for us for the foreseeable future. Dang!
