| General: This isn't the lowest snowfall total we've had in the past 27 years, but it's tied for third. I've uploaded an image of my uncalibrated snow measures since 1998. To date in January we've had 12.7" of snow, and our 27 year average (uncalibrated) is 27.5" (sd=19.3"). It's dry, but looking at the standard deviation reveals that it is not totally abnormal.
Agriculture: Snow cover on the winter wheat is pretty minimal. It remains to be seen if the cold will damage the wheat. It also remains to be seen whether the lack of snow will reduce crop yields in spring.
Energy: We produced 8.97 kWHR yesterday (cloudy, foggy day) and used 57.91 kWHR yesterday. Our usage is particularly inefficient because our heat pump is still down (2 months of parts back order due to supply chain problem).
Fire: Low risk.
Plants/wildlife: The frozen fog certainly is beautiful, and the wildlife seem to work within its boundaries.
Water: As I said above, we're not in a great position. In a normal year we would expect another 16" of snow this year (of the 110" we would normally get). As it is we are at 24.6 for the year. Not a great snow total. Our snowpack, as of last week, was 2". At this point last year we were at 19" snowpack. |

| It was a cool dry week until 1/24/2026. A winter storm that covered a big part of the entire country. From New Mexico to Massachusetts and from the upper middle Midwest to the deep south. Cold and lots of precip. We were on the northern edge of the storm and had received a good dose of snow. Its just about over for us per the radar so we will then make our observations. But its been a definite shift into winter with Cold temps that persist and now some snow. |

| Another dry week although difficult to see any current effects given the frigid temperatures. There is still a little bit of flow in our local drainage creek from the 2 inch rain a couple weeks ago. But levels in the larger creek and especially the Mackinaw river remain at very low levels. River level is up a bit but still very low. |

| 1.10” in the preceding week; most of it in a wet snow event. MTD we’re now at 2.34”, which is 55% of PRISM average. Given how juicy the incoming storm is we should be fairly close to hitting average for January. Between the wet snow/rain, warm temps following, associated runoff and natural recharge, pond level has rebounded quickly from the bog flooding; it’s now close to midsummer control depth (with a bit left to reach full). Surface soils remain moist (when not frozen). Wildlife activity remains normal. Enjoy the snow, everyone! |

| This past week can best be described as wintery; measurable snow occurred within every 24 hour period, temperatures began the week well below freezing and, other than a fleeting thaw mid-week, turned even colder. High winds were frequent which certainly reduced the accuracy of snow data. Anyone with a snowblade mounted on their pickup could be kept busy all week. Many area schools were cancelled Tuesday and Friday and probably would have been on Monday had it not been a holiday. Wintery weather reduced traffic but still caused numerous problems ranging from single vehicle slide-offs to a 100+ vehicle pileup on I-196 in the Hudsonville Area. Slick roads were one problem but zero visibility at times from heavy blowing snow was often the greater hazard. On Monday, Lake Michigan was freezing near the shoreline. By Friday, the Lake was frozen for as far out as visible. The St. Joe River in Berrien County froze solid this week. Curiously, Hickory Creek continues to flow. The full range of outdoor recreation activities are available for anyone willing to tolerate high winds and biting temperatures. Utility bills are straining due to single-digit temperatures. Again, data are suspect due to very high winds accompanying snow events but are as follows: gauge catch 0.56 inches; snowboard 10.9 inches; SWE 0.85 inches; snowpack average 6.5 inches but undisturbed ground remains 100% snow covered (was 5 inches on Monday morning). Overall, conditions are about normal but the potential for wetter conditions is present in the snowpack, should a thaw arrive. |

| From Balmy the previous week to Bitter Cold with several passes of Light Snow and Gusting Winds. At some times we couldn’t tell if it was Snowing or just blowing. The Temps were hovering in the mid 20’s to start the week, then took a dive down to -21°, the lowest Temperature in the Twin Cities in the last 7 years. Windchills neared -40°. Areas North felt much colder conditions. Various thickness of ice remains on streets and sidewalks which has made it difficult to clear and Snow.
Forecast: Two more days of the sub-zero Temps, then slowly climbing into the mid-Teens. Partly Cloudy skies. Light Winds calming to a Breeze. No Precipitation.

| After a dry fall, precip for the winter season is below normal, with snow falling in tiny increments lately. D1 drought continues, especially long-term.Snow depth of 10" is good enough for winter recreation. Snows have been followed by expected cold snaps, with highs below 0 this weekend. That limits skiing. Low for the winter so far is -31.4 here, consistent with Zone 3b. When we moved here in 1980, -40 was not too unusual and we were in Zone 3a, with a pocket of 2 just to our northeast. We will need heavy snows to replenish groundwater, wetlands, lakes, shallow wells. |

| Going with Near Normal again, however, just like last week, this is a debate with this condition and Mildy Dry. Precipitation totaled under 1" by a long shot and the air humidity is low. The only factor ironically keeping any moisture around is the very cold temperatures. By that, I mean that if you are managing to keep water nearby (in the basement or in the form of snow), it's fairly locked up in both cases due to cold, heavy settled air.
I might be fooling myself, but some birds are singing hopeful songs. Bunny rabbit has been around. Human activity somewhat dampened due to the cold (activities cancelled).
Allergies (stuffiness) have been low-to-moderate, low humidity-driven.
Otherwise, just hoping we've been through the worst now and are on the upswing. |

| With approximately 0.50" or more of water equivalent on the ground, the conditions can be considered near normal. The center of the yard is presently frozen, but this is considered normal for this time of year. The sump pump is presently activating every couple of hours or so, but the long duration is mainly due to the fact that the ground is frozen, and the water is slow to get to the sump crock. |

| We have finally gotten some moisture! I have 6.5" on the ground which has melted down to .61" for the two days. It's still snowing though it's due to move out by noon today, so there will be a little more to add tomorrow.
It will be interesting to see how this changes the soil moisture level. I fear it won't make much difference, but any little bit is better than nothing.
I had at least 20 cardinals and loads of smaller birds in my yard as it snowed yesterday. I have two bird feeders and have suddenly become the hot spot for the birds in the neighborhood. I will likely have to refill the feeders today. The cardinals have been fun and beautiful to watch against the white snow. |

Deer seemed to be moving in daylight more and earlier in the afternoon. The extreme cold weather warnings scared off the tourist trade even snowmobilers ,the town was a ghost town. Local lake had no ice fishermen no smoke from the shacks even. Cold weather brought really dry air outside and inside. |
