Do they really have to ad that last comment? Some forecasters show excitement, some are a kill joy. LOL

"Well, here it is. The first forecast for snow this season in the Northland. Don't worry though, it wont last"

When will snow manage to reach Tennessee this year. I want to be within a 2 hour drive from snowfall.

Michigan is a very lucky state in terms of winter weather.

Good chances IMO. How would you like these Highs October 3rd? Clear skies and struggling past 40s, cloudy and in the 30s midday. Strong Arctic high to left. Strong Low in Canada.

About Jan 15th, if you're lucky...lol. Granted, the higher mountain peaks do get snow in November (even flurries in Oct), but nothing that sticks around. The main problem of snow-chasing in NC / TN is having access to the higher elevations - sometimes you have to park low and hike up. I'd love to do a winter hike of Mt LeConte sometime though.

As for Michigan, you bet they're a lucky state. I luuuurve Michigan.

From NWS Lacrosse, WI

" Fun fact: It's never snowed on Oct 4th in La Crosse, WI or Rochester, MN since records began. That's expected to change after midnight "

"Here's our latest forecast for snow overnight. Anything that does accumulate will melt quickly Sat."



And just because one location might not break records it doesn't mean this isn't a special event. LOL. It IS only October 3rd and we're discussion snow and looking at the risks.

Last year at this time we were watching a blizzard develop over parts of Wyoming & South Dakota.

This year we're tracking some snow for Minnesota and Wisconsin and a lot of snow for Ontario including a polar plunge which seems East more this year vs last year.



October 3-5, 2012 also had cold and snow dropping down.

It snowed for about an hour here. No accumulation here, although it did make for an attractive photo opportunity:

Well, I'm jealous...

I'll be happy when it starts snowing here. Right now I'm just glad it's October and the weather isn't hot.
