Oh what levity

I'd have to imagine the roads will be bad considering how cold it was and for how long. Not quite to the magnitude of the ice storm after the Polar Vortex came south in 2014, but I do think it will be significant, especially with moderate precip rates vs heavy, limiting run off.

I have a feeling we will see a lot of last summer again maybe even worse.

Yeah that area and places to your north and west are really in trouble with how dry it has been. Alberta has really been suffering through a prolonged drought.

Yeah I think there is just too much focus on the power aspect when in reality the travel aspect is much more dangerous.

I am not the only one who wants him gone, far from it actually, and he keeps showing back up nearly every day with a new account and others engage mocking him. This is a tedious back and forth here though, so I'll just move along on this time waste.

I have heard this elsewhere as well about ISW vs WSW for places down south. While I agree with the accretion rate, I feel like with having been so cold the accretion on the roads will be pretty efficient and that's one variable that I don't think was considered as much down south initially.

Okay, thanks for your empty contribution to the discussion

I feel like GRR/DTX are low balling this one too much. The only thing I could see that would lower the ice totals for along 94 for both would be a prolonged snow/sleet mixture before changing to ice.

Yes it is, and we want to talk weather without an interrupting jerk who doesn't give a shit about anything other than interrupting this place. He has made 11 accounts already since being banned, he is the problem not those of us wanting him gone.

He will be gone soon enough and will have to make his 11th account then. Cromartie just so you know none of us want you here too. Maybe take a hint and find a cesspool to go sink into, instead of trying to force your way back.

I mean its a Nino too, what do people expect? At this point take the wins as you can get them.

Yeah we have had multiple bands push us down to 1/2SM here. Can't complain that's for sure.

Still getting some solid moderate snow here at DTW with the lake effect/enhancement off of Huron. Definitely an event saver for sure.

Just went to 1/2SM here at the airport, solid band with the lake effect.

Since you mentioned this I wanted to give my thoughts on this one. There is definitely a moisture surge that comes north Monday into Tuesday, but it comes north with a modest LLJ, weaker than one would expect and the system isn't overly strong. What is good about that is the WAA would be weaker than expected, and with a cold dense air mass in place it would be slower to get shunted away and that's without factoring in a decent snow pack that gets added to today into tomorrow. I would say I could see a colder solution barring a dramatic change, and the GFS is definitely leaning that way with a solid snowfall on Tuesday with some ice along I-80.

As for the snow so far 1.4" as of 7am still snowing solidly as of this moment as well. Probably end up in the 2-3" range for the first part of the system.

Don't worry he will be gone at some point today. Trying so hard to keep coming back as if any of us want him here.

There will be a bit of a lull but not that long, and clippers tend to move in quicker than forecast. Either way it looks like we will get some solid snows.

To be fair all of these maps include tonight but between tonight and thursday into friday it should be a solid hit of 4-8" across most of southern MI, Chicago should get some lake effect that would push them higher

It's not alone either. Tomorrow night could be a surprise.

Correct

The clipper tonight might. It's going to be high ratio for sure.

This was/is definitely a weird storm that is for sure.

GFS mostly did well here, it kept us mostly snow. Euro was not good.
