 Precipitation has been light this week, but last week's large amount of precipitation has kept soil moisture near normal. A dusting of snowfall has also provided a little precipitation, even though the snow water ratio was dry for Alabama (much greater than 5:1). Evergreen plants remain healthy, dust activity is low, and fire risk is low.  View

 A roller coaster of high temperatures that started at 39° last Sunday and then rose into the 40's before rising more to 57° on Wednesday before cooling again into the 40's and rising to end the week at 55° on Saturday. Lows started in the teens before rising to the 20's where they stayed for the rest of the week. The low of the week was 18° on Monday. No precipitation fell last week and snow from the previous week has slowly melted and is now patchy in the shady areas. No strong winds last week. Daffodils are slowly getting taller and tulips and crocus are poking up out of the ground. No change in plant life in the surrounding open areas and not much wildlife seen last week. Only a few birds. Did smell a skunk one day which was the first sign of a skunk in the area in a long time.  View
2/1/2026  AR-PL-1 ARPolk Mildly Dry General Awareness
 We received only a trace of precipitation this week that fell as snow flurries. The 2 week total is 2.3” and most of that fell as sleet last week and is partly still on the ground. It has been much colder than normal this past week with only a couple of days above freezing and several mornings in the single digits. Some melting of the ice has occurred and is improving the soil moisture deficit but there is still no improvement in the low water body levels. Plant/crop growth is basically non existent due to ice cover and cold. Local graziers are feeding much hay to their livestock. There is low fire danger at this time.  View

 We had a small amount of rain since the last report -- just .39 inches. Not much impact on the overall amount this rain year so far. We are still well under the 40 inches needed to get us through the dry season without possible water restrictions. The weather has been mild during the day -- shirt sleeve weather. Signs of Spring are starting to show. Buds on the local ornamental plum trees are opening their pink blossoms and the hyacinths and daffs are starting to bloom. Dozens of birds are now feeding on our wax myrtle trees, since these are some of the last sources of winter berries. Quite a show of Yellow Rumped Warblers, Robins and Flickers. Ocean conditions were largely favorable for fishing this week, though there was some heavy surf. Not as many tourists in town.  View

 Still very dry. No precip in the past week (Last was Trace on 01/26). Wind has been fairly strong and is drying the landscape and sublimating the snowpack. Very low runoff in the Big Thompson below Moraine Park gauge is less than 50% of historical average for this date. Lots of birds frequenting the bird bath for water. Elk herd has broken up into at least two and maybe more smaller herds. Deer frequent the area looking for browse, also in smaller groups. January precipitation was 49% of PRISM Normal. WYTD is at 50% of PRISM Normal. YTD is 48% of PRISM Normal. Looking forward to more precipitation in Mar and Apr which are historically heaviest snow months. Feb on average is about equal to Jan at my location (PRISM estimates). NWCC iMap is showing 58% of Median Snowpack SWE for my 6-Digit HUC and 70% for my 8-Digit HUC which surprises me that it has increased by 1% over last week. No increased fire restrictions in my area. Pile burning may start in RMNP and on USFS lands if conditions are favorable. Sledding conditions at Hidden Valley are poor with exposed rocks and vegetation.  View

 January 24 - February 1, 2026: very little precip during this period. A trace of rain measured on Jan. 28 followed that same morning by a brief snow storm which left a total of 0.6" snow (0.05" melted precip) (measured and reported on Jan 29th). By late afternoon on the 28th, most of the snow had melted. First snow in our yard for the entire winter. The end of January to Feb. 1st has been sunny or partly sunny days and overnight lows of about 31°F. Local weather forecasts are for continuing mild days and nights, no precipitation, and possible inversion air quality to the middle of February. Only the very top of the foothills shows any snow. Ground is thawing. Some plants, like iris, are beginning to show new growth. Hawks are in the area, circling, looking for food. Wildlife are hungry and visiting the feeders every morning and evening. Anna's hummingbird is using the sugar feeders from dawn to dusk, and singing in the nearby trees. If this mild, dry weather continues later into February, there probably is little chance of any snow accumulation in the valley. Snow is needed in the upper elevations for summer irrigation supply and for keeping wildland fires at bay for as long as possible.  View

General: Starting to sound like a broken record. I've attached a figure for the last 27 years of Januaries (Uncalibrated totals), and this isn't the lowest, but certainly is low. I'm leaving us at Moderately Dry. Agriculture: The winter wheat still has cover, though minimal, which should help it over-winter. Energy: Yesterday was generally clear and we produced more than we used: 42.28 kWHR versus 37.85 kWHR. Fire: Low risk at this time. Plants/wildlife: We saw a bunny track, which is unusual for up here. We have had bunnies off and on, but generally we have so many predators here, combined with hard winters, that we usually don't have them. Water: I'm concerned because of snow pack.  View

 This mornings brief trace was the only precipitation that we had for the week but plenty of cold temps. Even with the cold temps there was shrinkage of the snow cover in areas and the winds had the fields blown pretty clear. A lot of manure hauled this week. Don't see a lot of wild life movement in the area yet but the wife reports the dog finds lots of suspicious places on their walks. The Wooly Bears were pretty much on the mark so far.

 0.84” rain/snow melt, 1.0” fresh snow this week, with the freezing rain last Sunday making a real mess of things. Melted snow & ice made a thick crust on everything and single digit temps kept it intact. Road out front wasn't cleared until Friday. Luckily our power stayed on, as we were hunkered down and not going anywhere. Had to use a garden spade to chop through the crust to get snowpack depth. A frostquake one evening had us thinking a tree landed on the roof. Deer aplenty in mid-day appearances. Birds enjoying the sunflower in the feeder. Lots of hawks hunting.  View

 A snowstorm Sunday and Monday brought the snowpack to well over a foot and brought precipitation for the month and water year to near normal. Temperatures well below average resulted in no snow melt while brooks and streams remain frozen over and snow covered. There is ample snow on Mt Greylock trails for snowmobiling, and skiing, though very cold temperatures have been limiting activity. The snow is also excellent for snowshoeing once a trail is broken. The deep snow doesn't seem to hinder the deer with their long legs, or the squirrels and rabbits that can stay on the surface, but the coyotes, fox and porcupine have been making good use of my packed snowshoe trails where it suits their purpose.  View

 The U.S. Drought Monitor has my town split between D0 and D1 so I suppose we are actually "mildly dry" but with 15 inches of snow in the past week (12 still on the ground) it is difficult to say that surface conditions are anything but near normal. Having said that we haven't had this much snow on the ground in several years. The birds are flocking the bird feeder but I haven't checked the cameras since the snow fell so I don't know if any unusual 4 legged activity has occurred.  View

 Snow has dominated the week, with temperatures colder than than we have seen in years. These conditions have brought on memories of what winter used to be like back in the "olde" days. Much of the eastern and midwestern states have been in a polar vortex. Locally, most nights have been in single numbers for temps, even daytime highs are below freezing. That set us up for snow. Over about 36 hours, we got about 14" of snow this week. A seven inch storm the week before hadn't melted much bringing the snowpack to about 18". The SWE for the week was 1.89", up to 2.42" with the unmelted snow from the earlier seven inches. Much of our daily activities have been affected by the snow and cold. Schools and businesses have had "snow days" including working from home. Shoveling, snowblowing and plowing, trying to deal with ice dams on roofs have been the focus of many of us. Stories of broken pipes (freezing and thawing) and leaking roofs (ice dams) are both on the news and part of neighborhood scuttlebutt. Groundhog Day is tomorrow. No matter what weather predictions for Pennsylvania will be, it's a reminder for all of us that in a month or so, winter will be mostly behind us. In addition to the usual birds, squirrels and rabbits, what appears to be a fox visited my yard recently. That's an extra benefit of snow - telltale footprints capture things that otherwise might go unnoticed. That's a bit unusual for the center of town. The local ski area has been packed. Kids, both large and small, are taking advantage of weather conditions. It's all good...  View

Our conditions this week were Near Normal with 0.31" of precipitation falling over 6 days as 8.6" of snow. The week had a snowpack ranging from 11" to 13.5". January ended with us getting a monthly total of 2.51" of precipitation (very close to NOAA monthly average of 2.53") and 36.3" of snow. Daily high temperatures this week were way below seasonal average never getting any higher than the mid-teens (F), and getting as low as -8F this morning. Once again, icy conditions and low visibility caused by blowing snow resulted in traffic accidents on local roads. Many schools in western Michigan including our local schools were closed a day or two this week due to hazardous weather, and some school districts are running out of "snow-days". Many birds have been seen daily at our bird-feeder and water bath, and many waterfowl are still seen on the open waters of the river. The Kalamazoo river is still mostly open except for a lots of ice that is forming around islands and slower channels. The local millrace is has a small channel running in the middle (see attached photo), but has frozen over in spots resulting in water back up that is flooding our local river walk.  View

 For the week ending 2/1/2026, conditions were NEAR NORMAL. The 7-day cumulative precipitation total of 0.86 inches was 10% above the 13-year (2009-2022) average of 0.78 inches and in the “near normal” range; the 30-day total of 3.08 inches was 10% below the expected 13-year average of 3.42 inches and in the “near normal” range; and the 90-day total of 10.48 inches was 2% above the expected 13-year average of 10.25 inches and in the “near normal” range. There were 6 days of measurable precipitation, with a maximum of 0.55 inches on the 26th (all from snow). There were 6 days of Snowfall (total of 18.7 inches, max of 10.5 inches on the 26th) & 7 days of Snowpack (average of 13.9 inches, max of 20.5 inches on the 26th). Temps ranged from 26 F (on the 30th) to -8 F (on the 1st), with average Hi/Lo temps of 20/5 F (-1/-1 relative to last week). Precipitation Trends—January Totals: 3.25 inches (up 0.21 inches, 107% of PRISM Normal). Winter Conditions (November 1-to-Date)—New Snow on 42 days, with total of 82.5 inches (vs 17-year averages of 26 days and 45.4 inches); Snow Pack on 57 days, with average daily depth of 6.4 inches (vs 17-year averages of 41 days and 4.8 inches). harshly cold temps and endless snowfall continued for a second straight week. The usual feeder birds were attracted to the feeders in large numbers. One consequence of unusually cold temperatures is that, on weekends, starlings that normally occupy the nearby Southeast Berrien County Landfill flock to our feeders in large numbers. Despite the harsh conditions, a few American Robins remain in the area, making occasional visits to the heated birdbath.  View

 The streak of 17 days of measurable snow ended this morning in exchange for bitter cold temperatures (-12.1 at 7:00 this morning). Speaking of cold, temperatures never threatened to thaw at any point during the week, which has left a persistent snow pack with huge piles of snow where it was plowed in parking lots or due to wind drifts. Lake Michigan is reported to be 26% frozen and it is ice as far as visible in this area. Curiously, Hickory Creek remains in its liquid state. Wintery weather continues to cause traffic problems, school closures, and high demands on the electric grid. The full range of winter outdoor winter activities remain available. Snow often fell during high winds so data are probably lower than actual but are as follows: gauge catch 0.58 inches, snow 13 inches, snow water equivalent 0.86 inches. The snowpack this morning averaged nine inches. Hopefully the eventual thawing will be gradual but as long as freezing temperatures continue, conditions remain normal.  View

Total precipitation for our station this past week was 0.08 inches with 0.7 inches of snowfall (all from this Saturday evening thru 7:00 am Sunday morning). There was some light snow falling after the 7:00 am measurement this morning and into the early afternoon. For the month of January (thru 7:00 am this Sunday morning), we have had 0.52 inches of total precipitation and 4.4 inches of snowfall. Snowpack depth this morning is 7.2 inches with a snow water equivalent (melted value) of 1.49 inches. The snow feels frozen below the top 1 inch or so layer of the most recent snowfall with some ice near the ground. It is fairly easy to walk on and do not sink into the snow pack all that much compared to earlier in the winter season given the frozen snowpack. Temperatures have ranged from a high of 21°F this Saturday to a low of -19°F below zero Monday night at the beginning of the week. The past week saw a transition from extreme cold and ice to the current light snow showers with more moderate temperatures in the 20s. As is typical for mid-winter in Minnesota, fields and local flora remain dormant. Wildlife activity is concentrated on winter survival. Tracking events in Anoka County Parks this week noted sightings of deer, turkeys, and foxes in the snow. Residents have been warned to secure bird feeders, as nuisance reports of bears waking early or seeking easy calories often increase during late-winter temperature fluctuations. We have spotted the occasional owl in our neighborhood during the day in addition to the northern cardinals, chickadees, juncos, woodpeckers, nuthatches, blue jays, and crows. Winter sports are in full swing while the Anoka County Parks system encouraged Winter Exploration this week, with active trails for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Snowmobilers are occasionally spotted in our area. Anoka County observed Winter Salt Week starting January 26, an initiative by the Highway Department to educate residents on reducing chloride use while neighboring City of Ramsey continues to monitor manganese levels in the regional aquifer. Wildland fire risk is low with no permit generally required for open burning of landscape debris with the current snow cover. We are ending the week with highs in the mid 20s and overnight lows around 10°F, mostly cloudy skies with light snow in the morning and flurries throughout the day, good air quality, and winds from the northwest around 12 mph. The big and bright full moon was clearly visible this past week with some clear skies before sunrise. Conditions are mildly dry to normal with total snowfall higher this January compared to the past couple years but lower than the 30 year average.  View

January started somewhat mild with slowly increasing Temperatures reaching a Hi of 47° by mid-month, then shifting gears and took a week to remind us of the bitter chills by dropping to -20° over the course of a week and departs with a measly 4.4” of Snowfall. The Snowpack showed significant melt from 10” to 4.5” rather quickly. The remaining pack is a much harder mix of ice and snow making it difficult to dig down and retrieve a core. It’s definitely been a meager Winter so far. Heck, several of those deep South States have received more Snow this weekend than we have, including total Snowpack. February has just started off with a quick early morning Snow Shower of 1.2” and a rising Temp(s) from 19°. Forecast: Temps slowly rising with highs reaching above freezing by mid-week.
