The Snowbelt

This year the Farmers Almanac predicts another record-breaking year for winter storms.  The coldest outbreak of the season is predicted to arrive during the final week of January, and last through the beginning of February.  Temperatures could possibly drop to 40 below zero across the northern Plains! As the freezing air blows across the Great Lakes, intense bursts of heavy snow showers and squall could, in the most extreme cases, deposit 30-40 inches in a single day, especially in the snowbelt areas.  

With this information we can prepare ourselves for a very cold winter in the weeks ahead.  Leave a slow drip in your faucets, stay inside as much as possible, leave blankets and hats in vehicles, and brace yourselves for extreme cold.
