Like the title says, just one. If you could pick one wintry event (has to be in your own lifetime) to relive which would it be, and why? There's so many great events over the decade to choose from, but for me it's gotta be December 14-15 1987. To this day I've never seen so much lightning and thunder during a blizzard. It was truly remarkable. Winds gusting 60-70mph, the lightning, and the incredible bombing that system did the evening of the 14th was about as good as it gets. We even had bursts of heavy sleet mix in at times, but it didn't cut down on the snow accumulations too much. This event is probably one of the main reasons I got into the wintry side of weather. This would be incredible to watch unfold with today's technology.

Only 6 more weeks till we gotta start worrying about the sun angle.

Clippers are just to occupy us between the dogs lol

Euro looks like crickets through mid month. We'll probably get 2 weeks of action at the end of Jan, and then another 5-6 weeks of CAD/Michigan clippers through early March.

Looks like the next system of note will be a rainer around Jan 9th-10th.

Had a 45 min period of very light rain/sprinkles. Picked up a T.

Looking like mostly rain here on the far southwest edge of today's wave.

Picked up 0.3" from a wave of light snow earlier. Up to 18.1" for the season now. Last year at this time we only had 1.9" lol.

Getting a few flurries here.

The final third of Jan will be rockin'.

Felt like living in lower Michigan today with mood flakes from sunup to sundown. Don't see that very often around here.

Picked up a few tenths here. That wind last night was wicked.

Power just flickered here as winds are pushing 55mph. Flurries are flying as the wraparound action has arrived. May get a DAB to DAB+ by morning. EDIT: DVN recently gusted to 60mph.

0.95" here. Way more than I figured. Temp down to freezing now as we await the snow part of the system.

MSP radar doesn't look too good to me. Hope it fills in and enhances in short order.
