Welcome to my blog. I have been sharing my insights on the weather since 2009. Initially, I began blogging on e-blogger and transitioned to WordPress in 2017. Before that, I shared my weather forecasts on Myspace in the late ’90s and early 2000s. Typically, I post at least once daily, more often if the weather is active, but I may not post when the weather is calm. My blog primarily covers the weather for northeast Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin, focusing on the Twin Ports of Duluth and Superior. Subscriptions to my blog are available at $8 per month or $60 annually.
