Storms dropped another 1.30" here in the last few hours

0.75" Much needed but could use a lot more.

Much needed rain. The wind this Spring has been relentless. Gusting 30-40mph now.

Video of the hail/wind here (sorry for my language lol)

Good show over the lake 

 

Despite a lackluster year for most weather events to materialize in our area, whether severe storms or winter related, your backyard keeps producing. However, after seeing my last homeowners insurance premium I never want to see significant hail in my area again.

Beautiful day despite lake cooling, full sun really helping

Yeah I wouldn’t call April nice. Had some warmth but a lot of winds, clouds, and days that never really materialized. An average April but not a nice April IMO . Still waiting for that really great spring stretch of weather

Definitely this Saturday went from sunny in mid 60s to mid 50s probably cloudy and possible rain. No bueno for outdoor music

It wasn't your imagination. https://www.msn.com/en-us/general/general/the-u-s-just-had-its-windiest-start-to-spring-in-nearly-50-years/ar-AA1CvYrA?utm_source=GetKim.com

Even though temps averaged above normal for March didn't feel like it with the wind.

This weekend shaping up nice. Always think of spring weather starting here in mid April.

Scattered and brief here

It's back-door/lake-enhanced front season...

Too far west for LES and air conditioning in the summer but in range for this spring warmth killer

I hope we don’t rubber band back into cold in April. Probably wishful thinking. Just ready for green grass, fired up grills, and open pools.

That's referred to as Memorial Day weekend in this area

Still have a nice snowpack in SE MI. My season to date snowfall sits at 26.9" with 26.0" at DTW. Have definitely made the most out of the snowfall in terms of days with snow on the ground.

Close to doubling ORD

Are we at the "it ain't fair" point yet?

Should blow that up and frame it. Winter 24-25

If only we could dodge the cold air following like the snow. The advisory layout somewhat mimics crudely the  areas affected the most by these systems. 

2" down here

Ripping under this band, +sn. Shame it’s so transient 

Looks like it should be ripping but isn't. Lightly snowing

+SN now

Don't do it

Not expecting much on the Euro
