0:00 Good morning. Northern Michigan, or should I say Northern Arctic Circle? Welcome to winter again. Although the temperatures aren't so bad, we got a lot of snow overnight. I think, probably six inches here at the, McDowell's World Studios here in Traverse City. And I'm sure it's, more in other places. If you're not from around here, yes, that wet sticky snow that would be really great for making giant snowballs. So, if you got kids and they like to do that kind of stuff, this would be a great day for snowball making.

0:42 So I think I'm gonna skip a news story. The news is snow at this point, anyway. Today, it says snow before 11AM. Yeah. No blank. I wouldn't say it, but, yeah. Lots of snow. Let's see. Right? That rain and snow high near 38. That's, that that'll make it nice and messier. Southwest wind, 10 to 15 miles per hour becoming west afternoon. Winds can gust as high as 30 miles an hour and 100% chance of snow accumulation of about two inches. So that's what they say. I don't know.

1:28 Tonight, snow possibly mixed with rain before 11PM and a slight chance of snow between 11PM and 2AM, low around 21, blustery with a north wind of 10 to 20 miles an hour with gusts as high as 40. And, new snow accumulation less than an inch. Tomorrow, partly cloudy with a high near 34. So tomorrow's gonna be our only boring day. Sunday, Yeah. Or Saturday night, snow likely after 2AM. Mostly cloudy with a low around 24. Calm wind, and then it'll, bump up to five miles per hour a little bit later.

2:14 About, two inches of snow. Sunday, snow before 2PM, then snow. Why did why did they say that in the forecast? Yeah. Just snow. With rain and freezing rain between two and 5PM. Yuck. And rain and snow, after 5PM. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 38. New snow accumulation around eight inches. Sunday night, rain and snow becoming snow after eight. Snow could be heavy at times, low around. Doesn't say how much, but somebody somebody, on another venue is saying something about two feet of snow.

2:57 I don't think it's gonna be that bad. In fact, last night, I went to dinner with a friend, and he was telling me about that because I've I've paid attention. And I'm like, I don't. Whenever they're hyping it that much, it can't be that bad. I wake up this morning, and winter's back. So and, yeah, sorry about yesterday. I I, announced it was Friday. Well, no. Today is Friday. Friday the thirteenth, the second one we've had this year since, February and March. Numbers all kinda line up. Hopefully, nothing too crazy happens. Be careful out there in the snow, and I will catch you on Monday.
