The picture above shows the shoreline that has been battered by southwest, west, northwest winds that have eroded the beach to the degree that I’m at least 6 or more feet above the beach. One of the reasons is the lack of ice on the Great Lakes. This of course contributes to lake effect snow and the lack of sunshine. … Read more »

A great sunrise somewhere this morning, but not here. A fog rolled over North Lake Leelanau at sunrise and East Leland disappeared. Biscuit and I arrived in Fishtown just as a burst of sunshine created a picture postcard and by the time we arrived at Van’s Beach, fog again.

A great sunrise this morning with a clear blue sky, something we haven’t seen for while. It didn’t take long for the clouds to take over as are in the path of another winter storm. Blizzard conditions on the other side of Big Blue while on this side we are expecting 1 to 3 inches of heavy wet snow, then… Read more »

Another dark get-up, but the days are getting longer. The weather people promised us rain and they delivered. The prospect of wet snow turning to ice is probable as the temperature will be dropping below freezing overnight. The Leland Report/Leif Spork Snow Gauge contest is closed. We had a total of 47 entries. We will report the final tally on 4/30/16!

It’s amazing what a lot of sunshine can do for your mental health. A little bit of sunshine helps, but a lot really does the job.

We were waiting for the Clipper to arrive at around 7 pm last night with 1 to 3 inches of new snow. It did arrive, but with drizzle and was on it’s way east 45 minutes later. 35 degrees at get-up and breezy. Upper 30’s and 40’s predicted for the weekend which is needed to get rid of a lot of… Read more »

No new snow this am, but still had to shovel maybe an inch left over from last night. The forecast is calling for a Clipper system to come ashore this evening around 7 with 1 to 3 inches perhaps. The problem with that forecast is that rain may develop. Below is my personal tribute to someone who was a major… Read more »

Woke up this morning and guess what… three inches of new and drizzle. With the temperature around 35 degrees, it bounced back and forth between snow and drizzle. Not a very nice day, but not the worst we ever had. On Nov 28, we were fortunate to tag along with the crew of the Joy when it moved into the shop for… Read more »
