Like most areas in the mid-west, there isn’t much to say right now as there is no snow on the ground. The one positive was that there was actually decent ice cover being formed on the basin before the recent warm up and rain before Christmas. As of right now, we don’t have a recent report.
The long range forecast at this time is indicating a shift in the weather pattern towards more normal temperatures into the first part of January with the possibility of some clipper systems – that means the potential for lake effect snow increases.
We’ll be watching – if/when the snow comes, we will be ready to go.
