Re: incoming weather
Frost depth is starting to decrease. It was 20" at Waseca on the 10th. The walk in door on the barn is closing & latching again. Yard has firmed up as well. The LeSueur River was up substantially yesterday as the snow continues to melt. Most of what's left is in the road ditches, grassy areas & along rivers & streams.

Re: incoming weather
There was a little water running out of the side of paper mill in GR 3 weeks ago. Then 2 weeks ago they had a couple gates cracked a bit & close to 1/2 of the river upstream of that bridge was open. Last week the gates were open a little more & it was all open upstream, plus probably at least 75 yards downstream of the bridge too. This week the Mississippi was close to 1/2 open where that big bend in the river is just east of Cohasset. Last week the next dam downstream from there, where the DNR has an office by that campground only had a small area on the south side open. This week it's open upstream just past that railroad bridge & downstream of that dam at least 50 yards.  The puddle out between the garage & the new shed has shrunk from what it was when the neighbor just got here on Monday too. :confused:

Re: incoming weather
The latest map of snow totals has us right on the edge of the heavier amounts. The local TV guy's map showed Scenic, JB, & LPS in the 4-8" range. The hourly has it turning to snow ~ 9am & not stopping until around 4. They have us getting 4" now, that was 1-3" yday. Winds NW 15-25 too, with higher gusts. :confused:

Re: incoming weather
They just updated us to 5-8" tomorrow as well.  100% chance of snow.   But they also were reporting rain here last night as well.   Was not a cloud in the sky when they were reporting that as we were watching the moon eclipse.

Re: incoming weather
You won't even need your blankie to nap on top of the flour pallets today! 76 for a forecast high although they've been overly optimistic as of late. Still enough snow hiding here and there to knock a few degrees off. I took my steel electric fencepost and probed around the yard to see how deep the frost was. Depends on where you look. In the garden where it's bare & black on a south facing slope, very little frost left. In the sod upslope from there, it's thawed down about a foot. In the small garden that had some leaf cover but was bare in places, frost is down ~18". I keep forgetting I have a penetrometer so will take that home & poke around with that. It has nice handles on it for easier pushing, sorta like what glenn says about those Inger hotties... :coffee:

Re: incoming weather
Our cable station that's 24/7 weather out of Bemidji, there's 1 from GR too, is now saying that our Winter Storm Watch has been replaced. It was earlier talking of .01-.1" of ice but now says no ice accumulation is expected. It has now upped the snow totals to 3-7", from 3-5". With wind gusts of 60 possible. :scratch: Currently it's cloudy & 63.

Re: incoming weather
Strong wind gusts & heavy rain briefly about 15 minutes ago.  Has simmered down already.  Some rain on the radar coming up out of IA.

Re: incoming weather
I didn't test the footing when I stepped out back of the garage around 6, but it felt like rain to me. We still had 33 on the garage thermometer. Our Weather Alert is saying snow totals of 4-6", with 8" possible locally. Winds as high as 40 too. The hourly says snow from ~ 8:30-2:00.  :scratch:

Re: incoming weather
Looking at the radar, our snow is pretty much done with that inch or 2. Just windy as heck as the front now here.

Re: incoming weather
Snow just started to build up a bit here now.  Mostly coming down as sleet balls.  Under it is solid ice. 

About 0630 it was 28 in Bemidji and 42 in Grand Rapids.

Just talked with one of the road deputies here.  He says the roads are pretty dicey in this area and only going to get worse.
