Glad DTX didn't go BW and ruin their bliz-less warning headline streak for a white dust event. That would've been doubly tragic

Multiple Ninos in the 80's really gave NMI some good winters. The bouncing between Ninos and Ninas also was stout. NMI, especially NEMI really cashed-in during that decade. The early 90's backed-off for NMI, but the mid-90's had epic snows and cold. I will never see winters like that again.

Me too. From this nightmare storm FAIL

At least you got winter and a White Christmas secured. Doubt it will reach that level here.

and in a region (SEOH) that's had some huge storm total like 40+ inches in decades past. That 2-4" warning threshold is crazy low.

Made a call last Sunday morning before the "east trends". Looking $$$ now

Was staying on N side of Hubbard Lk at some cottages during the 11/16/89 bliz. RN->SN and 10" but with the SLP bombing to 964 mb near James Bay the winds roaring through the forest was insane. Listening to my trusty NOAA Wx radio I always took along, KAPN non-stop broadcasting the storm conditions was memorable. Baro kept going down and down and down. 96 knot gusts reported at Presque Isle Light!

an hour ago a tad under 998 Edit 11 pm

Looks to be ripping...in TN Meanwhile here..

Happy for ya guy, ride it over there!

Lol, that was '78 with bombing sfc cyclone near KTOL.

How'd that work out for you?

Obviously, this is a full month earlier than '78 was - Strike 1 No moisture-laden S Low dragging high p-watts north with it - Strike 2 Like Christmas Eve 2014 potential, getting its act together too far north for anyone outside LES belts - Strike 3 We're out! Strike 4 if we had another is warm era's Dec fail record. If the LES comes through for NMI and The Yoop, this may exceed new snow totals from that one. Can kinda thank warm era lake temps for a boost on that front. From my task bar feed (still set as KRMY): Sigh

Clear illustration why the west side of The Mitt is the best side of The Mitt. If you like snow

Too many non-wx weenies, aka the rest of the millions wished this away not wanting holiday plans upset. Peeps have no sense of adventure anymore. Only us sickos want to see/experience the wrath of nature, lol

DTX map says typ 4-6 storm

Detroit bomb this time, thx Edit - Deepens 14 mb

2 or 3 yrs back, MR models flashed a 979 mb SLP east of Detroit. I remember somebody in here @Stebo ? commenting how that basically never happens and ofc it promptly vanished the next run. Enter the non-fantasy range run GFS Psst - and it deepens 10 more mb's!

Was an insider ref to SEMI poster complaints with the New Years Eve '13 storm, lol

11:30 am and -28F actual out in WY. Wonder how this compares with Christmas of '83 cold wave?

Yeah, but its long duration. Hours and hours of pixies

Banding gonna hit DTW, yby, and just N of me. SOP for these parts

Detroit Metro down-sloping at its finest

Heard N ONT thread is rockin

Morning Euro had a Wind Bomb for sure
