GRR Sherman St. SE and Vernon St. SE. January, 1978. Maybe MW knows this corner. Perhaps Vernon St. SE was renamed, to avoid confusion with Vernon St. NE?

I'll never forget the cold snap of the winter of 2015. Here in Tawas, we had a 37-consecutive-day stretch of below normal highs beginning in late January and ending in early March. And according to Accuweather, we got below zero 13 of the last 16 days of February, including 4 nights cracking -20.

2014 was nearly as cold - that was the year that there were still ice chunks floating around in Lake Superior into the second week of June.

My totally nonscientific measurements on my patio here in Brighton is 6 and a quarter inches. That's about 6 and quarter inches more than I wanted to fall. Looks like it's still going.

I had to do a little trimming to get the final tally.
