    It was an interesting May; we more than doubled our average days of thunderstorms for the month with 10 instead of the average of 4 days, pretty hard to do during a cooler than average May for our locale. I'm hoping the cool and relatively stormy pattern continues. Regardless of storms, this coming week looks to be quite pleasant on the whole as it should be this time of year.

    I'm not sure how your climo compares, but despite averages being in the 60s all month for highs, it doesn't often settle around average (which would be ideal). The most May days that had highs in the 60s over the last five was 10 days that we had in 2014. It is just normal sadly for it to be up and down instead of having periods where we stay seasonal for several days in a row.

    Well it did hit 80F on Saturday, even with midday showers/storms so maybe it is an occasional cold bias.

    Fun day of weather so far, started off foggy and cool early this morning, 40s around 9am. Then the temperature rose 10F in the last hour from mid 50s to mid 60s and a strong subsevere storm roared in.

    Yeah I feel like we were paying for the previous week’s chamber of commerce weather.

    Honestly that mid 60s day followed by rainy and 40s would be preferable to four days of 40s and rain followed by a sunny day in the 80s, rinse and repeat; been there before in May.

    Haven't seen the sun or mid 50s even since Sunday. It will be about time for a nice weekend weatherwise!

    They’ve had a number of events this winter where they were stubborn to change their thoughts until the event was underway and it was too late to adjust. This will be another one.

    So the -NAO overwhelmed even the -PNA?

    DAB I’m thinking (go figure the southern rows of counties in Wisconsin got added prematurely to a warning).

    Hard to believe I may need a north shift on this one, given we're pretty much done with April Normally I'd say too late for me to want it, but the prospects of having two snowy Aprils in a row is definitely interesting, possibly historic. MKE only needs 4.3" out of this one to record back to back double digit marks for April.

    Does that include May snows (like in 1990)? I forget what the official daily total was for that freak May snow.

    MKX catching some flack as well (as I think they probably should) for waiting so long to upgrade Milwaukee and Waukesha counties to a Winter Storm Warning. My grid yesterday morning had 2-4" last night, up to an inch during the day, and area wide we have well over 6" I believe right now. All models yesterday showed at least a half foot across the metro.

    How often do any of us tout freezing rain as a good thing?
  15. wisconsinwx
    It has now started pouring fine flakes! Wish I could pull an all-nighter as it would probably be worth it, but oh well.

    It’s nice to have a storm I can weenie out to. Feels like it’s been awhile since I felt good about our chances at double digits. Could be a change but 0z HRRR for one looks like a beaut.
  17. wisconsinwx
    Thanks, timing of this event keeps getting pushed back it looks like. The start of the heavy snow around 2 or 3am, and many models show it pushing out by around rush hour, yet projections showing around a foot on a lot of models. Not sure I buy into that unless lake effect/enhancement adds to it.
  18. wisconsinwx
    I can’t see the time stamp, what time is this forecast for?
  19. wisconsinwx
    Are there any models that move the low south of due east once it gets to Eastern Iowa?
  20. wisconsinwx
    If it is strengthening at that point I could see a bit of a left turn, but otherwise probably not.
  21. wisconsinwx
    Probably not the Euro with clippers; if this was a Panhandle Hook I might think differently. I personally wouldn't mind the Euro to win this one, but I think it's unlikely.
  22. wisconsinwx
    Yes, there have been dynamic systems I have been a part of but I'm pretty certain 50dbz and golf ball sized flakes haven't been a part of any of them. Most of the time I would agree that continuous 3-5" systems could become mundane, but the way this winter started for most of us and the activity we've seen of late it does seem a bit much to be upset about it.
  23. wisconsinwx
    If it comes with 50dbz returns I don't know how that can feel redundant? I don't think I've ever experienced that in a snowstorm.
  24. wisconsinwx
    I remember those days, though they seem eons ago!
  25. wisconsinwx
    It's funny how even our good snows, it's always slow and steady; it seems our peak so far has been half an inch an hour rates, hoping it picks up later. We've seen a couple inches or so to this point.
