I don't know whether to be disappointed or not.
Right now, we were supposed to be getting all of our winter in one 24 hour span. There was a blizzard warning in effect, and depending upon where you are in the UP you could see up to three feet of snow. So what does it look like in Marquette, as of 9:30 this morning, just a few minutes ago--
I'm underwhelmed. How about you?
I'm not really serious; after all, to the west of Marquette there's a lot of snow and in the southern UP roads are almost impassible, especially in Menominee and Delta Counties. But every single school and many businesses preemptively closed last night thinking today would be horrid. Instead, at least here in Marquette, it's merely inconvenient.
But it's also the winter of 2023-24, when nothing has gone the way it normally does. So why should we expect anything different than what we're getting today?
But since most of Upper Michigan IS dealing with weather worse than what we're getting there is a bright side to it all. Most of the UP won't want to leave their house or apartment today. That means they'll be looking for something to do, which means that the premiere of our new season of “Pieces of the Past” might actually draw a few eyeballs. We're releasing two of them today (and then one a week through the beginning of July). Here's the first, with a recommendation that you watch it on as big of a screen as you can, as there are a lot of details you can see.
With that, I'm off to venture into the "apocalypse". Hopefully, I'll live to write another one of these tomorrow.
