I hope you are correct.

Not trying to pick a fight, but why didn't you do this before Covid? This goes for anyone saying it is such a great idea. Masks have been around for a long time but suddenly they have become essential?

Wat is up with that red spot east of Whichita Falls, TX surrounded by a sea of green?
-
26.6" so far at CMH. 6.1" ahead of normal so far. Not entirely sure what normal is for CMH but it seems to me they will be very close either side of normal when the snow year finishes.

Melting is kicking in to high gear today. 42 and dripping everywhere.
-
You can tell the areas that are doing well. Quite a few deficits as you go north. Crazy southern Great Lakes storm track dominating this winter.
-
Yes. Depends on the upper atmosphere layers
-
You average a lot more than me, but cut that deficit in half and that is where I will be. I would be happy at this point to make it to 50% of average since it would be an amazing comeback in February/March to an overall bad season.

Kinda sad that the west side of Lake Michigan is seeing as much if not more LES than the east side this year.

lake keystone is to the west of Tulsa

I thought it didn't snow in Indy.

My brother in Caldwell (SE Ohio) measured 9.5" this morning. Nice little surprise for them. WTOD normally kills most snow over there but this time the cold and suppression helped bring a nice snow to that part of the state.
-
About 3.5” over here yesterday through last night. Nice to see winter showing up.

LES has been alternating between light and moderate/heavy all day. No way of measuring when my yard is either bare grass or a drift. Looking forward to more this evening and overnight. -
Enjoy. Kind of jealous but enjoying what we are getting here.
-
Never heard of that. Interesting to see the connection.

Just got upped to a Winter Storm Warning from an advisory here. Looking good for up to a foot with LES by Saturday. -
Still waiting on the turnaround of this side of Lake Michigan. Even the UP is hurting for snow. Looks like this week and next might at least make a dent in the deficit.
-
I can almost match you. I just put my plow on Sunday. I have shoveled 1 time all year. Sad this is I probably average at least double your yearly snowfall.
-
What is your YTD total?
-
You just described LES fairly well. The fluff factor is something most people outside the lakes don't really comprehend. The nearly 80" I average in a normal year here is not like Iowa getting 80" in a year. Look at WeatherBo. He gets 200"+ but depth never gets anywhere near that.
-
If only the GFS would verify. Nearly 3' IMBY. However the Euro says no way. Give me less than 12". Either way, definitely looking to double my YTD snowfall and maybe more.

Early on you are correct, but any time after 84 hours or so any place down wind of the Great Lakes will wind up being the winner. Looks like the lakes will finally produce snow in many of the normal LES regions. -
January 30-February 1 Winter Storm Part 2
WestMichigan replied to Hoosier's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
To @A-L-E-K and all the others that immediately slapped the weenie tag. Several days out I said pick the model lowest snow in the GRR area and that would be correct. Well, it looks like that was the correct answer. https://www.weather.gov/images/grr/wxstory/Tab3FileL.png?7218d30f4377734d0f4e99a5d1f9208c -
Given the lack of any significant snow in my area on the models I can assure you the more southern route is definitely the correct solution. You just can’t make it snow more than a few inches in the vicinity of GRR this year.
