thats only more than 3 feet... get the swim trunks out!... and throw them away lol. Might have some lingering pockets into our June trip... that would be cool to see!

Where did that picture come from... aka where can I get updates?

Thanks for posting the link hooky.

Leftover ice/snow in June is useful for cooling down a glass of Scotch!

Here's a variation of the same website, zoomed into the Island and Keweenaw. You can plug in past dates for comparison. This year's melt appears to be taking place slightly faster than last year's super high May snow cover.

The manual measurement station for Keweenaw County has this year's depth 14 inches shallower than last (34 inches vs 48 inches)

So things are beginning to look up for those early trips in May.

You're welcome and I like the way you think. It would be a shame to drink it neat if you had all that ice available.
