The shoreline of Lake Huron.
The overnight freezing rain has stopped, followed by snow, and now we have sunshine. I hope that will help softening the accumulated ice.
Getting rid of that will be a job!

EVERY WINTER PRECIPITATION (AND HAIL!):

The past several days have been a smorgasbord of #winter #precipitation falling across the #Northland. That included #snow, #sleet, and #freezingrain.

There was even #hail with a couple #thunderstorms Friday afternoon, including the first #severe thunderstorm warnings for 2025!

#Snowfall is still occurring in some parts this afternoon. That will move out by tonight.
