    78 degrees, sunshine and light winds today in Marathon, FL. Oh, and the fish were biting! cool

    Big fan of Marathon! Did you go with a guide or DIY? Oh, and we ended up with a trace of sleet an hour west of the metro.

    We typically do both. DIY is actually my favorite. But this trip was with a guide and we went up into the Everglades National Park. Caught enough Sea Trout and Spanish Mackerel to feed us for the week!!

    Been a bit active up I-35 north the last few days.

    Got a solid 6″ of snow Saturday to Sunday AM. Then this AM it was -10, and tomorrow night we’re supposed to get another 4″, with another 2-3″ on Friday night.
    Then more nightly below zero stuff most of next week.

    I hope this is not one of those years where all our snow comes in Feb/March/April.
    I was really hoping for any early spring season for trolling out on Superior.

    Lol that’s such weather terrorism. I try to keep it more realistic and grounded here. jester

    Anyways, Wed night looks mostly like a northern MN event again for snow.

    Fri/Sat could result in more widespread measureable snow across most of the state though. The pattern is definitely getting more active. Typically does when California starts to get moisture. It tends to move northeast across the country right towards us.

    The constant “northwest flow” we’ve had most of the winter doesn’t really result in much snow. Its just wimpy clipper systems, at best. Because they lack moisture. However, that flow is exactly what creates lake effect style snow across the Great Lakes. We often get colder Canadian air out of this, just very little snow.

    When low pressure comes from Pacific across the Rockies, it is usually associated with more moisure, and thus, more snow.

    Confidence is growing about Saturday’s potential snowfall. A swath of Central MN which includes the Twin Cities could be in for up to 8-12 inches of snow. It would be the single biggest snow event this winter.

    Might want to fire that snow blower up on Friday just to make sure it starts…

    LOL wouldn’t that be ironic returning from the Florida Keys. Almost like a “sign” you shouldn’t come back yet.
