WINTER STORM GRACE: What a difference 60 miles makes.  Around the Green Bay area we picked up a few tenths of an inch of snow while  60 miles away, parts of Sheboygan County will end up with nearly a foot.  I got an e-mail from Ben at  "The Point" radio in Sheboygan this morning describing the conditions like this:  "In my 15 years in radio...I've never seen this before. You can't see across the street. EVERYTHING is closed."  There was a real big drop off in snowfall amounts with this storm as it pushed through Illinois this morning.  Now we have to deal with the very strong winds.  Gusts of more than 40 mph are being reported at this hour (11 am).  If you're heading out this afternoon be prepared for powerful winds and "feels like" temperatures in the single digits.

THE BOYS:  I can't believe it but Henry is turning 2 this Friday.  He's become extremely independent lately.  In fact he won't let you do anything for him.  One of his favorite expressions is "I do it, I do it"..."Don't help me, Don't help me"    He doesn't really understand his birthday yet but his older brother Jake does.  He's looking forward to having more toys he can take away from Henry.

Hold on to your hat and I'll talk with you tomorrow on Good Day Wisconsin

Hi, Pete, do you know of a source where I can get the daily snowfall totals for January 2008? My husband keeps track of them on a calendar and our son needed a piece of paper, goodbye stats! Sure would appreciate it if you could help me out.

Hi Pete,
Happy Birthday to Henry. And thanks to the weather guys and gals on Fox11. I really appreciate the way you put the evening temperatures between the daytime temps. It sure makes it easier. I get confused when I watch other stations. Also one station shows northern temperatures and the Green Bay area. There is a big difference up here (north of Crivitz). These temps would be helpful.
Thanks again.

I am the Director of Meteorology and co-host of Good Day Wisconsin here at FOX 11. I have 2 sons and 1 wife. My sons are 3 year-old Jake and 2 year-old Henry and my wife is Sarah. I have been co-host of Good Day Wisconsin for 13 years and have seen it grow from an hour to the current 4 hours. I love to share stories about my life on the show and I would like to do that here as well. I produce a series of reports called "Weather Whys" and have answered many questions about the atmosphere. Of course I will talk about the weather here as well. I look forward to sharing with you.
