Happy President’s Day! We have snow flurries again on Monday, obscuring what was a beautiful blue sky yesterday. Ice boats raced about on the south end of Lake Leelanau. The wind chill out on the lake was considerable, but it looked like the sailors were having fun. Here are more glimpses of the vibrant colors that pop when the sun… Read more »

Two degrees at get-up is the coldest so far this season, the record low is 10 below. Not many people out today. The Leland Report/Leif Spork Snow Gauge contest is closed. We had a total of 47 entries. We… Read more »

No doubt about it… this has to be the worst day of the season with the wind blowing at over 30 mph, periods of lake effect snow and visibility near zero at times. Drove to Lake Leelanau for recycling in a total whiteout. Amazing how many cars have no headlights and I thought it was mandatory. The scary cars are white and appear… Read more »

The lake effect machine is in full throttle, but we happen the fall between the bands. 10 inches has been reported in various locations and I’m sure Suttons Bay is one of them. The main picture taken this morning at Van’s… Read more »

Again… the wind is dictating our “El Nino” winter weather. And these ice boats are ready to take advantage of it before the snow falls. We are under another “Winter Weather Warning” until Thursday at 10am. I heard this morning that the ice on North Lake Leelanau is about 3 inches thick, which isn’t the best but, I’ve seen ice boats… Read more »

Sky opened up shortly after noon, but you can see on the horizon for the weather to arrive in the early morning tomorrow… Rain!… Which will mix with snow later in the day. Weather watch for Tuesday calls for snow. The Leland Report/Leif Spork Snow Gauge contest is closed. We had… Read more »

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. Anyway, it was a nice day to go to Suttons Bay 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!

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 »
