Lol Buffalo is doing great because of Lake effect snow. Cleveland not so much. Detroit, Cleveland, pittsburgh are between 24-26", Indianapolis, Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati are between 15-20". The east coast is a snow lovers disaster. I would not consider it a screw hole , it's just that areas just to the North and West have had above average. Definitely not DTW's year, that is for sure, but I still say we have not been in a true screw hole since 1995-96. By that I mean places all around us North South East and West are getting above average snowfall while we are not.

Me Too! Lol. I love Winter and never get tired of it. We've certainly had a better Winter here then theyve had on the East Coast, but its been much better for the Western portion of the subforum. Last Winter I ended up with 62.5" of snow, however about 53" had fallen by this point. So far this Winter season, I am at 23.9". I see with this event Chicago is going to lock in an above average snow season. I had mentioned earlier, Chicago had only beaten Detroit one Winter out of the last 8. This Winter they are well ahead. Detroit seasonal average is at 42.4", and so far this season, 24.2" has fallen so we have a ways to go. I am liking tomorrow for some fresh snow however.

Multiple pros were forecasting 200% seasonal snowfall up and down the east coast

Boston is having an epically bad winter. Season to date they are at 4.8", average to date 29.0". And they were forecast to have a historically snowy Winter.

Since when did dtx get so descriptive in the long range lol?

We have a great subforum here, and whenever I glance at one of the other subforums, it only reinforces that fact. However it's pretty clear that what's good for some in the subforum will not be good for others. I distinctly remember all these years when we were getting relentless snow cyclone was getting scraps, but this Winter it's the opposite. Everything is hitting Iowa and western Illinois while we get less.

Epic snowpack in the UP.

I take snow until it won't snow anymore. Every year around this time we see some start to think spring or big storms only, but not me. Spring is by a mile my least favorite season, I absolutely dread it. Give me snow till the end of April then let it be summer.

Got home from the amazing scenery of the upper peninsula, and everything was still encased in ice. Picked up 0.62" precip, mostly freezing rain per my gauge, then about 1.8" of backside snow which blew and drifted everywhere. With the warmth today, most has melted.

I agree bo. They need reports from your area. So much more snow than surrounding areas. Theres 60"+ at your place, 46" otg at MQT and prob half that in the actual city of Marquette.

There was maybe 2" snow with the storm but id say a good 4" maybe 5" les. But like i said they never have snow this deep in newberry. Some good snow squalls at home it looks like. My driveway will prob be an ice crust with some wind whipped powder on top.

Incredible. I wish i was there, but then id be stranded lol.

Lots of ice related issues at home. Up here in the UP its gorgeous out. The storm itself busted, as only about 2" fell today, but now the lake is kicking in. Easily the most scenic ive seen it by Lake Superior (though not the deepest). Every tree draped in snow.

Lots of power outages at home im told. Really bad ice storm.

Detroit climo is definitely a 4-6" magnet but if I brought my actual snow magnet with me, we should be reeling in the heavier totals in the area, not the least. That magnet worked for many years but was mysteriously stolen this winter, i have an investigator on the way to cycloneville to find it. Jokes aside this is the deepest snow theyve had in newberry in years per the locals and ive never seen this much snow this far from Lake Superior. Fresh snow will be perfect and it wont snowbound me (10-18" would keep me anchored at a hotel...not fun lol). An ice storm is raging at home. Sounds like snow to sleet now freezing rain with temps in the 20s.

Localized band of 2 to 3" in Detroit's immediate northern suburbs with that band. Only picked up 0.6" of sugar both here and at DTW. Outside of the band with its intense rates and fluff it was pure sifter sugar snow with lower ratios. At least the ground is now white again and my one remaining dirty snow pile as freshly covered lol. Yet models had higher QPF in the Southern suburbs. This is somewhat like the event a couple weeks ago where I got almost 4" due to a heavy band, only this time I was not in the band lol. Heading to the UP today, tons of snow!

DTX only forecasting a 1/2 inch of snow tonight for here lol. I would say 1 to 2" is more likely.

Looking like snow here tomorrow evening then the kitchen sink Monday night and Tuesday.

Where can you view the 18Z Canadian?

Thanks, I will at some point. Its just a far drive lol.

Looking like we see some fresh powder on sunday here, and then an early guess for Tuesday would be snow to mix to rain ending az snow. I will be in the upper peninsula Tuesday, so have my standby snow measurer to let me know how much we got at home while I will be enjoying a UP snowstorm!

Im going to the UP Monday thru Wednesday this week. Staying in Newberry and hiking tahquamenon. The snow is unusually deep in the eastern UP, thats why we decided against initial plans to go to keewenaw or ontario. Its only a 5 hour drive. Even the banana belt of the UP has respectable depth (many winters Detroit has deeper snowpack at times than menoniminee or escanaba). Our landscape may return to white again at home too, but cant wait to get to the UP!!!

When was howling all night. Temps in the teens with windchills near 0.

We had constant snow cover from January 17 to February 3rd, that's going to be about the best stretch we can get this subpar Winter. Other than that its been a day here and there. No snow left other than parking lot piles here now (well i have a wide driveway so one small pile, most people have none). Its crazy how dews nuke the snow. Buffalo went from 2 feet to nothing! Last Winter was great with just a few exceptions though im sure the western sub would beg to differ when comparing the last 2 winters.

How much snow do you have left? Lol I was not even outside during it. Last I was outside it was in the 30s this afternoon and the next time I will be outside will be tomorrow morning in the teens.
