Why is all the snow melting?, this is Minnesota we should be getting more snow not less. These high temps are good for cleaning off the roads and sidewalks and when it freezes we will have a good snow base.

One reason why I think we are having a better or maybe even just more stormy winter is because of the lack of storms last summer. Compared to most summers we did not get much rain at all and did not see a lot of severe storms come through. Last winter we did not get any snow until after Christmas, same with the year before that which is still unusual for Minnesota. One other unusual thing last year was that we had a tornado in the end of October(That was one crazy night) which is almost unheard of that late in the year this far North. The tornado was not that big, but it was still a tornado and it did cause some damage.
Now the only thing for Skywarn we are working on is putting together classes for the spring and getting prepared for the next storm season. 00Stormspoter and I are going to be putting on a class for a homeschool co-op this spring I think it is going to be really neat.

Hi Isantisky,
The class you did with 00stormspotter was a interesting class. I hope you can do more classes like that for others too in the future.
