In case you haven't noticed, it's gotten pretty cold and snowy here in the Keweenaw. Of course if you live here or visited this week, you already know that. But for those of you that didn't, we can thank Steve Haagen for the current update on conditions. Steve was down on the Houghton waterfront taking in the scenery across the way from the Bridgeview park. Sure looks chilly with the snow in the air and the piles already on the ground. No wonder there's nobody in the park enjoying the view.

Wow, Mary! It really does look cold. I love the picture though. We are very cold here too, but we have no snow. They're thinking there won't be any for Christmas this year. That'll only be the 2nd time since I moved here that there was no snow for Christmas. I was so excited the first year cuz I always wanted to say I saw a brown Christmas, but I always like to see snowflakes on Christmas Eve when leaving Church. It reminds me of the movie "White Christmas" when they open the doors and there's finally some snow.

Here in Oglesby, Il the weather has broken a record low, -1, last felt for this date in the 1970's

I'm really enjoying the view of the park!

what a marvelous picture! wish i had a painting like that.

Another beautiful picture of God's Country. I sat in that very place this summer during the Memory Walk. Looks quite different this morning.

I'm so glad he "captured the flag" in this photo. It's perfect!

Steve - so nices pictures in Your albums.. .

Greetings! Formerly a yooper too! REally enjoy seeing all the pictures of Lake Superior, snow etc. I'm in Tennessee now, outside of Knoxville and it was 14 and windy this morning. Don't know what the chill factor was. No snow, had 6 snow flakes yesterday (Ha) Get nostalgic every time I come to this site. Thanks to all for the beautiful pictures and pithy comments. Merry Christmas!!!

It's cold in Florida today...can't imagine what it is there!

Not a bad day here in Dexter, 25 and sunny. As long as you are inside the sun helps morale at least.

It's so cold in Illinois that when I ran into my lawyer this morning he actually had his hands in his own pockets!

Joanie -- you need to get your own Comedy Central show. Can I come to your house for the holidays? You guys must have a blast!

Its a beautiful afternoon in the Western Upper Peninsula, the SUNSHINE IS OUT!! Really nice to see the sun for a change!! Enjoying it while it lasts!
Have a good evening everyone.

Cindy, you sure can come for the Holidays, we'll be having lots of "HAM"!

Hey P.Weed, don't say the "C" word! Gerry and Barb and their families flew into Orlando yesterday for a week to celebrate their 50th anniversary at Disney World. 23° here now.
