The Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team has an important winter weather update!

Winter has indeed found us friends. This week brings two snow events to our fair township. First, tomorrow (Tuesday) morning early the snow will start and depending on the drift of this one, could bring anywhere from 2-8' across the northern tier of the lower peninsula. Oscoda and along the lake is looking like a 2-4" currently, more south and northwest.

Now for the real fun, Friday.

It looks like it begins mid-morning Friday and goes through Saturday afternoon. Maybe this is why nobody is RSVPing to Johnny's Saturday afternoon Browns playoff buffet. So, there you have it, hippity hoppity winter's on the way. See you at the quickly emptying grocery store!

Johnny is just in one of those moods today

They have upgraded this nebbish snow day to a 3-6" annoyance

3-6" of sloppy wet snow between, well, now and 7am tomorrow for Iosco (and Ogemaw but who really cares) Counties. Probably much ado about nothing unless you are a dog.

The Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team rates this a 1 Dr. Smith storm system.

Oscoda, we need to talk a little weather this morning...

...actually maybe we should have a big talk about the next 24 hours of weather around here. 

Snow and ice are on the way but the big problem is the ice and the amounts. Some predictions have almost a half-inch of ice setting up around the greater Oscoda area. You read that right, a half-inch. Bet on at least a third of an inch and that means loss of power and trees and branches coming down no doubt. If your phone or iPad or other electronics need charging, now would be the time. Now, there is the threat of some amount of snow, 2 inches, 3 inches, 4 inches, no model seems to have landed on a solid amount of snow on top of the ice. This whole winter storm party kicks off tonight around 6pm so whatever preparations you feel you need to make, you have some time today. 

Stay with the Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team for more information as it becomes available.

Confidence is high, repeat, confidence is HIGH for some snow on Thursday

Looking and sounding like the wind, rain and temps in the low 40's tomorrow will give way to snow around 11pm in current models and a 3-6" snow system should be going when you wake up for your Thursday morning coffee. Commuting Thursday morning will probably eat, suck and blow.

Stay turned to the Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team for more updates.

What's this? The first real measurable snow on Saturday?

According to our good friends at Accuweather and of course the Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team, 2-4" of white stuff should begin early Saturday evening and continue into Sunday.

Johnny's dog approves.

While Oscoda enjoys Thanksgiving weekend, a storm brews for Monday

The Oscoda City Desk Action Weather team insisted Johnny post this today ie fair warning and all that. There is a possibility the first real snow of the year might be of good size. Early reports are calling for 1-2" of snow late Monday afternoon and 4-5" more Monday night. 

Stick and stay with the Oscoda City Desk for updates all weekend, long after you can get them elsewhere!

Accuweather is throwing around a number on our snow Tuesday night and all day Wednesday

You're not going to like the number, Oscoda. Accuweather is now calling for 6-10" of new snow beginning Tuesday evening and running all day Wednesday.

This has been an Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team update.

Did you like last Saturday's snow?

If you did Johnny has some GREAT news for you, we're getting more this Saturday, potentially much more. The Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team is constantly checking maps and fronts and humidomometers and other sources and so forth and right now, one source says around 5" of snow Saturday while Accuweather, normally not one to put up big projections too soon just threw up and 8-12" for the Oscoda City Desk viewing area.

Again, Johnny will have more on this storm as more becomes available.

We have good news and bad news: It all depends on how you feel about snow

Checking the Saturday weather situation on and off has indeed led to seeing a trend and that trend is MORE SNOW. Yesterday it was in the 6 inch range, now the Wunderground projection is north of 8 inches. Not trying to alarm anyone, just letting them know a trip to Roger's might be in order on Friday if you do your marketing on Saturday.

The Oscoda City Desk Action Weather Team is calling for some snow on Saturday

Johnny and the crew have been tracking the numbers from Wunderground for a couple three days and the projected possible snow totals have gone from 4.2 to now 6.2".

Keep your eyes and ears out to this weather station for more updates.
