Monday started the week with a low of 22 degrees and snow flurries, and Tuesday is on tap for 13 degrees with clear skies. Wednesday and Thursday have chances of rain, but temperatures warming into the 40s and 50s. Look for the weekend into Monday with highs in the 60s, though with chances for showers. Maybe spring DID arrive. Enjoy!

The Hayward area received about 5 inches or more of snow Saturday night thru Sunday, preceded by a coating of ice in varying thicknesses. The Monday forecast called for highs in the low 40s, followed by an additional 2-4 inches of snowfall Tuesday night thru Wednesday night, with mid-40s highs. This storm could include a rain/snow mix, ice, and freezing rain. Sunshine and 40-degree temperatures this week should make short work of the snow accumulations (the sooner the better this time of year!)

Fishing for nearly all species is good to very good, with crappie and bluegill action really starting to heat up with the spawning season.

The first week of the general inland fishing season was a good one, walleye fishing in particular was very good.
