Yea obviously there's alot of extreme weather weenies on here, including myself, so it makes sense some enjoy deep winter. Deep down I don't think anyone really enjoys walking outside in single digits.

Different strokes. Its different if you gotta work in it and have no choice. These kinda temps suck cause most of the time we're in suppression city. Very rarely do we get a storm like we just had with arctic temps in place. Ì go to Florida in jan and Feb to escape this kinda cold but live in the region the rest of the year.

Im glad we can entertain y'all. With there being so many of us, that seems normal that everyday there's something to learn about Michigan weather history. It is a weather board. Blame Josh with all his stats n shit.

Guess it's only fitting for a guy named king James to be whining and complaining.

Don't blame/take it out on us for the weather boredom in your area and for the cold stretch. You don't see us ever bitching and moaning about Chicago's lake effect shit.

Forecasted low down here in fort myers for Sunday is 34. Its been 25 years since they've gotten as low as 30. My 95 year grandpa who's lived down here all life has never seen flurries this far south. 1989 there were some reported though.

Who enjoys deep winter? Unless there's snow falling, you have to be sick to enjoy this kinda cold. Unless you're a diehard snowboarder.

If there was any kind of leadership still around, I would request the last 3 pages of our detroit shenanigans in here be moved to the banter thread. Although I think for historic/archive purposes, the Ohio crew had their own thread for this? What happened to Hoosier? I haven't seen him around this winter.

Who cares what twc or what any local news stations ever say. Us weenies know more. Most people just piggyback what dtx says, which we all know is as accurate as accuwx. Do you still watch local news for their forecasts?

Those old school maps had us in dark red, 2 feet plus for like 2 days and if had not gone nw last min, I think we would've been close to 20-24. I think one year soon we're gonna get a big dog the same night the lions win the sb in buffalo when they host it in their new stadium. What a night it will be.

Ghd was our moment but the chicago crew pulled it nw last minute. Ill have nightmares of hearing pingers from that one for years.

Lol this made me laugh. So inaccurate. 2014 was wild but yea no big dog. Same with the 30+ hr storm in 15 as that wasn't one either. Im not on here in the summer cause severe weather doesn't get me excited and our area is usually zzz in that category which I'm okay with. I like my house and dont want it destroyed. Before covid, I used to travel to the east coast every week for work so yea if a noreaster was coming I would stick around for it. Enjoy the useless cold, I'd imagine your snow piles are gonna stick around until may this year.

I've experienced several as my job used to require me to travel. You think I'd be wasting my time arguing with the wall (josh) if all I wanted was to experience one in general? I want so much snow here it knocks out power in wyandotte and I can go a few days without Josh's turd polishing glass half full climo bs.

False. I don't mind winter. I hate what y'all are about to go through weeks of tundra and flurries. Enjoy it. Its gonna be funny when a storm rolls along in a few weeks and you're battling precip issues, after weeks of below avg cold. You will never see me complaining about a double digit snow. You will see me complain about a storm that just occurred. 20 hours to get 5 inches when it took others 5 hours. Also not lecturing, just stating big dogs happen often, all around us, regardless of your old repetitive climo explanation.

Not expecting anything. Its okay to have dreams and not jerkoff at every 4 inch event. I see you still got your snow shoveling and pile creation skillz.

Tired of the useless cold stretches like the one currently. Definitly grateful to be able to snowbird a few months every winter. The 10+ days up north, temps in the teens and zzzz.

The point is it can happen, it's happened all around us. Just would like to witness one. Until then all these 6 inch events are just zzzz.

Ahh so you're the big dog repellent. Kidding. Im sorry you had to move. Not a better place to be in the summer though. Me and Josh go back and forth about this every winter. He likes the nickel diming shit and snowcover. Im okay with 3 snowless winters in a row a decade if it means a big dog every other yr for a good stretch. Boston has had atleast 10 20+ storms since 2000. Detroits had 100+ 1-3 events. I know its not in our climo to get big dogs but when you see everyone else getting one, it's annoying lol. Also I see our friends in ohio/Indiana did well but not nearly close to some of the kuchera maps we were seeing that I thought would verify with the arctic air in place. Perhaps too much dry air or ratios weren't as good as we thought due to it being too cold.

Snowbird chief

Toronto big dog. Boston big dog. Us 16 hours to get maybe 4 inches. We've discussed this. Im willing to suffer 4 shutout winters in a row if it means I get a big dog every other yr other times. It does look like a winter wonderland back home so it beats tundra and no snow cover I suppose. Im 40 years old so hopefully I can witness a big dog in my backyard and a lions sb b4 I croak.

2 feet for boston incoming. That's gotta be like 10 of those for them since 2000, 20+. Congrats to the chicago lake crew and indiana/ohio crew. Looks like detroit will be lucky to get 5.

Denver Seattle sb?

The low on the coast is forming, stealing some of the northern energy from the main low that still hasn't made it out of northern bama. This storm is another example why detroit struggles to get big dogs. You get a low trying to take a favorable track but coastal steals energy. Its pretty cool to see the whole state of PA covered in heavy green returns. Also on the anniversary of the 78 storm.

I'd imagine by looking at radar, it's snowing an inch per hour. I'd say the models did pretty good with this, atleast in se mi.

I can't recall last time we had a storm system the size of this one approaching with temps near zero
