Snow in Michigan already? Remember, snow is a four-letter word, but it's true!

The Upper Peninsula’s first measurable snow of the season has arrived.

According to the National Weather Service. The Michigamme area population of 262 reported 0.1 inches Tuesday, 40 miles from Marquette in the western part of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.

What Is It Looking Around Here For Us?

Anything can happen in Michigan, the area is expected to go from below-freezing temperatures to "Kid Rock," All Summer Long like weather this week. Temps will be above normal in the area and are expected to head into the low 70s during the weekend.

Everyone Is Making A Prediction For The Weather

From a Mild Winter, so we are going to get what is coming, you wait and see.

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's seasonal outlook, Michigan could be milder and wetter this winter. For January-March 2025, the agency's Climate Prediction Center gives a 33%-40% chance that most of Michigan will have above-normal temperatures.

Can We Rely On The Farmers Almanac?

The 208th Edition of the almanac says Michigan should prepare for a “Wet, Winter Whirlwind” during the 2024-2025 winter season.

You have to admit that every year, the Michigan Winter has been somewhat of a letdown if you love snow. Last year alone, I did not use my snow blower even once.

El Nino Or La Nina?

La Niña conditions

La Niña is expected to develop during the fall and persist through the winter. La Niña is an ocean temperature condition opposite of El Niño.

No, Michigan is not expected to be under an El Niño winter in 2024:  El Niño conditions ended in mid-May 2024.

Screamin's Predictions On The Upcoming Winter

It will be a late start to Winter as we will deal with many ice and sleet conditions. Then, because of the moisture, we will have a few heavy snowfall totals. I think we will get away with a wimpy Winter Season.

What About Christmas?

The Detroit Christmas Tree

Odds are we here in Metro Detroit are looking for a wet Christmas. Come New Year, I predict the bitter cold stretch will hit.
