Friday, Feb. 17, 2023-SW Michigan-Winter Storm Left Us A Mess
Currently 19 with an average wind from the NW of 9 mph. Feels like 14 degrees. Dew Point 11, Barometer 30.05, Humidity 73%, Visibility 9 mi., Sunrise 7:37 am, Sunset 6:16 pm.
20% chance of morning snow showers. Partly sunny skies after noon with a high near 17. N winds 10-14 mph.
Partly cloudy overnight with a low around 19. SW winds 8-18 mph with gusts as high as 28.
I measured 5″ of snow in my backyard, but that number is deceptive. Because so much of it fell as something close to ice mixed in with the snow, it’s a heavy layer of winter left for us this morning. Shoveling is not a happy event when the snow is like this. It’s the kind that ends up with back aches. Should see some sunshine tomorrow. Not talking about any great warmth to go with it, but at least it will be bright. Look for some snow showers again about mid-week coming up but for now it doesn’t look like anything harsh.
