Guess their focus was actually how a weather event could be political more than a story for weather buffs. Still, it was some new data for me and especially about Skilling. I am wondering if @Tom has seen this?

In Grayling the day started at 14F and large parking lot puddles were solidly frozen. Despite bright sunshine all day they were still frozen as I headed home. I think it hit 33F and that's about it. 23F here in Harrison attm. Getting the soil temps down where they can support snow when it does arrive. Oh, and patches of snowcover still there around Higgins too. Tick-tick-tick..

No way to know without access to Jim’s microfiches.
