  1. Past hour
  2. Still a few natural patches here, but sadly will be gone as well.
  3. MKE recorded a 60 MPH gust, and looks like it's already transitioned to snow ahead of schedule.
  4. Wind absolutely howling this evening. Fun 24 hours ahead no doubt. Sent from my Pixel 10 Pro using Tapatalk
  5. The 900 people who live in Onaway Michigan are getting snowfall rates I can only dream of
  6. Flipped to ice pellets here a bit ago. Probably 0.1” of accumulation or so.
  7. I'd say yes to the 3+ question. Stations in NMI use number of days with 6+ as their standard. The nearest station reporting such is about 20 miles due east of me. All NMI stations are AN season to date, even non-LES locales such as my own. Big storms (warning level) and deep snow are my key winter likes. Deep cold that may excite you and others, I actually deduct points for, lol. Lake has been iced since early December. I haven't had a daily high at or below freezing since March 1st yet somehow I have solid snow cover here from back to back storms. Meanwhile, DTW hit 70F today. It's pretty wild.
  8. Kids get off early for probably nothing. Even better than a busted snow/ice that turns out to be rain haha
  9. I drove home from northern Maine towing a snowmobile trailer yesterday. We delayed leaving Presque Isle due to poor road conditions and wind. Finally got on the road around 2:00. Everything was smooth sailing all the way through Bangor so I decided to go through the White Mtns. on Rt. 2. Worked fine all the way to Gorham, NH. At Gorham the wind was absolutely ripping and it was snowing and even though we saw a couple of state trucks coming down the mountain, I knew it was going to be sketchy. And I was correct. The wind was howling and it was near white out conditions. The snow was starting to accumulate on the road and combined with the salt made it pretty slushy. It was a white knuckle drive all the way to Twin Mountain. The road was fine most of the rest of the way until a mini repeat through Groton, Topsham and Orange. Pulling the big trailer in the wind was worse thing. It made me feel like I would get pushed around on the slippery road surface. o was pretty happy to get home.
  10. I also wonder if the fact that most schools likely haven't done their tornado drill for this year played into the decisions at all. Still the safest call either way, but I thought about that earlier today. We haven't done ours yet.
  11. Gonna be a nice light show anyways in our parts
  12. ^Well we've had 5/6 recent years La Nina (RONI), and 7/10 recent years La Nina. In 20-21 we were -0.1c away from Strong Nina, so I don't think we are "due". Actually history shows that 4/6+ ENSO-state occurrence flips in the following 3-5 years 2:1
  13. Several 60-65mph wind gust reports out in central Iowa over the past hour or so. I-80 closed between Des Moines and Omaha.
  14. Arw/Arw2 0z runs pretty much duds. Would be a marginal risk at best with those looks. Welp guess we will see what the morning brings.
  15. Another thing to watch out for is that we have not had a strong la nina since 2010-11. This is our longest stretch without one since 1955-56 and 1973-74. We are probably due for a strong la nina soon. (If we don't get one by 2028-29, then it will be the longest stretch without one since 1916-17 and 1955-56.) Keep in mind, many of our strongest el ninos have been immediately followed by a strong la nina: 1957-58 (strong) - No 1965-66 (strong) - No 1972-73 (super) - Yes (1973-74) 1982-83 (super) - No 1986-88 (strong) - Yes (1988-89) 1991-92 (strong) - No 1997-98 (super) - Yes (1998-99 and 1999-2000) 2009-10 (strong) - Yes (2010-11) 2015-16 (super) - No 2023-24 (strong) - No
  16. Funny that this evening we're dealing with a developing blizzard when 10 years ago on this date I was looking at this down by Good Hope IL.
  17. Check out the showers moving due north south of us. Little storm near Culpepper
