  1. A lot of people were thinking this was going South but all the last models have been wagons North. Still looks good here but I too would not mind a nudge South. 6z GEFS is perfect.
  2. I'm surprised some are anxious to see the 84 hour nam. That's about as accurate as the 180 hour gfs lol
  3. I'm looking forward to this system. Barring a complete miss I will be happy. There is some frozen snow outside but those bare spots thanks to yesterday have to go. It's easy to be jealous of the deeper snow in eastern IA and western IL, but we cant jackpot every Winter. As long as a fresh looking winter wonderland returns for the record cold blast.
  4. When do we see the 1st post where within minutes of each other one poster "insert model name looks north" while another 1 says of that same model "insert model name looks South"
  5. Id say -4 here. Depth was 5" prestorm. Got 0.81" rain (most of it freezing rain) then warming temps. Snow held on well til later in the day. Isnt that always the case? The last hours before the cold comes back are the worst. Calling current depth 1" on avg but this includes plenty of bare spots and of course drifts. Monday could be good so ill stay out of the complaint thread....for now.
  6. Its basically mid winter. This is not that late at all. Decent chance those areas dont have snowpack by the time spring gets here. Just have to hope to lose a little at a time.
  7. Sigh. As did ours. Lost most of it late in the day, every time there's a day like this I always hope we will lose less than we do. Calling the average snow depth now 1". Plenty of spots have more, but there are also bare spots. Once everything continues to freeze up at least it will resemble Winter over the complete bare ground that we had for most of December through mid January.
  8. DTX has categorical pops for snow Monday as well.
  9. Everyone seems to get their turn. It seems like cyclone was constantly missing storm after storm for years, this year hes gotten every one.
  10. Driveway skating rink, pic taken around 7am
  11. Last weekends system in some shape or form was on the models for well over a week. Obviously track, intensity, degree of phasing, basically all details varied, but the consistency of something being there was unwavering for well over a week.
  12. I'm wondering if that is the same thing that will happen here. They actually closed DTW airport due to icing right now
  13. Here there wasnt a cloud in the sky on a frigid mid-winter day. DTW bottomed out at -7F with up to -15F in the coldest spots.
  14. Took a nice walk at the park. The bitter cold is invigorating with the crunchy powder and the cold sunshine. Long live Winter!
  15. Everything ive seen points to colder than Average February. Where are you seeing talk of it being warm? Don't tell me let me guess the mid Atlantic forum lol. In if that's the case no worries here, the can of cold they wish more would be nothing but dry suppression up here.
  16. -6F at DTW. Yesterday the bitter cold made for a gorgeous winter day, first with the cobalt blue daytime sky then with the clear crisp frigid night.
  17. TOL officially had 5.9", so that sounds low. Monroe county, MI, the SEmost county in MI, had pretty uniform reports of 7-7.5". As said earlier, I had 6.1". The official total at DTW was 5.8", which was a record for the date and the largest snowstorm since last Feb.
  18. Finished with 6.1" imby. More than I expected, so Im very pleased! A classic deep winter day, snowing and blowing and drifting, the snow a glistening powder. Finally it looks like deep winter in southeast Michigan!
  19. I am enjoying this storm. Its exceeding my expectations. With the cold temperatures and the blowing and drifting powder, it's a Winter wonderland. Hard to measure. Have 4.5" as of about 20 minutes ago. Looks to continue for a while.
  20. Got a 1/2 inch of snow last night, not sure what to expect tomorrow but hoping the FGen band overperforms. Either way bring on the powder!
  21. I'm a huge baseball fan haha. Just hate Spring and all the allergies that it comes with
