with this evening's frontal boundary convection almost done working through, I picked up 1.02" of rain since 7:30pm, skyrocketing my July total precip to 2.70". all in all a very unpleasant day to be outside. hit 97.7° this afternoon, the highest temp of the month. now i'll have to mow the lawn, dammit.

hit 93° imby before our 3rd Severe T-Storm Warning of the year, after which we dropped to 74° currently 79/72, and suddenly we've got fireflies, you would not believe your eyes

Yep, today's 94° with a 66° dewpoint did feel marginally better than Sunday's 90/72. Marginally. Went down to Crescent Lake earlier this evening and dicked around for awhile in the swimming area on the north shore. Felt like bath water. Stepped on a zebra mussel, which I do not recommend, was nice knowing you guys

already feeling super gross outside with PTK reporting 71/66 as of 11PM. the brief rain showers this morning (0.11" imby) and stagnant overcast has led to a yuckening of the night that I can only describe as "wearing soup" or "sweaty underpants" my dehumidifier is going full BTO, takin' care of business (and working overtime, wooo)

moderate rain/snow mix changed over to straight snow over the past 20 minutes here in Waterford, 35/31 imby. remember April in the D?

temperature gradient looking like the powerball drawing. Flint area is especially tight

Yes, by Elizabeth Lake.

Coming down at a pretty good clip here for the past half hour or so. Nice DAB

had some giant floofs with the band that moved through between 2 and 3PM, no accumulation but easy on the eyes. backyard temp was 38°. the band around 6PM produced just rain, temp was 36°. currently some mist with visibility down to half a mile at PTK.

absolutely barfing snow here. ~2" depending on where you stab the yardstick. just got home and the few cars I saw were keepin' er between the ditches (and lakes) so that's cool

been riproaring here for a little over half an hour, flakes have been fattening. half inch easily since the start.

pretty wild stat, but now it's been 0 days (at least for you)

Hit -6.5° overnight, with a WC of -19°. Had a friend in Pensacola send me this photo of their 8.25" of snow from yesterday:

2.0" here in Waterford. Roads are a mess

Quick dusting here in Waterford over the past 45 minutes but not snowing at the moment. At least everything looks pretty.

Big flakes in Waterford

Circulation near Holly earlier that prompted a SVR warning, along with straight line winds

dude wyandotte's got so many sycamore trees. i loved it when I visited my grandma there in my youth days

managed 0.01" at PTK so far today, my PWS hasn't registered anything (probably fked something up when I installed my new wind cups, so many earwigs living in there)

super foggy here, PTK is down to 1/8SM, DTW & Willow Run 1/4SM

Flew into DTW on my way back from Pensacola yesterday (was cold AF down there but that's another story) and our flight was delayed by about 30 mins so they could top off the fuel just in case we had to go into a holding pattern. DTW was reporting FZRA and the captain said our diversion was CMH (to booing in the cabin lol). Luckily we had a brisk tailwind and only arrived 15 minutes late, and DTW switched to just rain. roads were crap heading Downriver around 11:30PM, but my drive back to Waterford this afternoon entailed just wet roads.

Late post but ended up with a little over 7" of cottage cheese imby. Many roads are still kinda dicey between here and my office in Novi.

measured 1.0" so far IMBY. starting to slow down

what's happening here at the IL/WI lakeshore border? nighttime micro and band 7 shortwave IR images
