and so the Storm begins...

The snow is starting to fall here (10:30).

Duluth NWS has a good Weather Story Display this morning, so I wanted to post it.

Current conditions 10:32:

Temp: 13.6
Dewoint: 7 degrees
Barometer: 30.42 "Hg
Wind: light from the East
Windchill: 13.6

Our forecast calls for a high near 24. Southeast winds will develop between 15 and 20 mph, gusting up to 25. Today's snow accumulation is expected to be 3 -7 inches.

Tonight should have a low of 20 with 6 -10 more inches. The southeast winds will turn more easterly.


Lake Five

Also, there is a very nice webcam set up 36.8 miles south of me. The owner has a shot of the lake he lives on, Lake Five, as well as an underwater image, both have current temperatures. This is the screenshot of a few minutes ago.

The webcam page is here.
