Could this FINALLY be it?
As you know, we've been waiting for winter to actually arrive here in Marquette. We've sat through warm spells, rainy spells, false weather alarms, and, for those who actually like and/or make their living from the snow, major disappointment.
But that may be about to change. We're (once again) under a Winter Storm Warning, and (as of right now) we could see 18 to 24 inches of snow by tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon, followed by bitterly cold temperatures for a few days after that. We've been burned enough this season to be skeptical that it'll actually happen, but people are taking it seriously enough that pre-emptive cancellations, including our “High School Bowl” shoot for this morning, have already begun.
Will we get the snow we're promised? I'm not a meteorologist, nor do I play one on TV, but we'll see. I wouldn't be surprised by whatever happens, including a rain storm that melts what we DO have on the ground or, I dunno, a plague of locusts.
It's just been that kind of winter.
For reference's sake, here's a picture (two, actually) of what Front Street in Marquette looked like late yesterday--
I'll take more pictures when (or if) we get the snow, and then you can judge for yourself whether or not it lived up to the hype.
We'll see.

Now...you actually won't see the “after” picture until Tuesday, because Monday's MLK Day and we get it off. So have yourself a great (and hopefully long) weekend, and keep your fingers crossed that we either do get the snow or don't get the snow, depending upon which way you lean.
Stay warm!
