It’s supposed to be spring what is this? Is what most peopled asked about Friday evenings snow which ended up being 1 to 2 inches across the central part of the area from Grantsburg to Clayton and Amery to Rice Lake,Barron and Sarona areas. If you were lucky and lived south of there you saw no snow on the ground! Friday evening just before 3pm I was expecting Rain showers, I even put out the rain gauge, and uncovered sprouting flowers, but instead of rain, it came as wet heavy sticky snow, sticking to everything even trees, Pines seems to be drooping and bending pretty far down to the ground as you can see from this picture the pine tree branches in our yard were bend to the ground.
Tonight’s forecast calls for the snow to end and temps not to fall below freezing tomorrow it calls for Sunshine and highs in the 50s So this snow will be gone before tomorrow evening.
lol welcome to Spring in the North! I still remember last year when we had snow events into April, so anything is possible around these parts. I’m putting out my rain gauge on Sunday or Monday, hopefully the top layer of the ground will be unfrozed enuf to let me do that..lol.. We had around 1.5-2″ of snow here in Duluth on Friday, came down very hard, but lasted only an hour at most.
The image above is nothing but a past memory, With todays sunshine and near 60 degree temps, all the snow melted well before 4PM, I was kinda glad to see it go.
