Unlike most Huron County winters where snow comes, piles up, has a January thaw to take down some of the banks, then continues on with more snow, this winter has seen a roller coaster of winter blasts followed by spring-like thaws through- out, each type of weather seeming to average a stay of approximately a week. The winter seemed to start off normally with an early taste of heavy snow- fall in November. Following this, the El Nino current began this ride by giving us a green Christmas. It has also resulted in very little ice cover on the Great Lakes, including Huron and Erie, for the entire season. The results are that each time a strong, cold blast crosses the lakes from either direction there are lake streamers of very heavy, wet snow. This is the type of system that struck on Valentine's Day 2016. Driving was very tricky throughout the day with some road closures happening. Unfortunately for one driver making his way through Clinton on Febru- ary 14, the weather was not the only misforture to cause traffic tie-ups. The tanker became unattached from the tractor while the truck was on Albert Street. Richard Gordon of Huron County Wildlife Photogra- phy recorded the event with his camera. harin 0 Healthieroil Future- vow PEiHIC
