Neil;
I grew up in Lansing and went to school at GMI in Flint. One of my favorite recollections from the late 60's is of visiting a high school buddy who went to school in Houghton, one winter weekend, and going sledding out of one of the second story dorm room windows on the snow bank that had accumulated on the windward side of the building. Not a freaking chance in hell you could ever get me to live there in the winter.

That is about the 100 year average and what we saw for the years I lived in Houghton (72-73 and 74-77). Not a whole lot of years since have they made the average. Down here, we didn't see much in December but once it started, we got a full season of snow in January, February and March. The 9+ inches of rain that we got in April certainly didn't hurt. Any water in the lake is good water.
