^ I hope it continues to bump SE

If you knew that office, you'd read that as "we're increasingly excited for GR proper, certainly not for anyone south of here wrt possible headlines".. Not even here, let alone TOLEDO

..and the beat goes on for Lwr Lakes (insert face palm)

Ofc they are, but we've been dealt a bunch of extremely bad ones the past 3 seasons, and this winter's have come immediately after our best snows. Weeks to get a decent snow then WHAM! gone a couple days later. At least in 07-08 there was already something popping up on the models to replenish the come-n-go snow cover. Now we get rain/warmth or just plain blah. If this pattern doesn't turn around, we're headed for the worst season since 11-12. Trust me, the mood is NOT positive if you're a snow fan around here.

Yuck! Since 06-07's constant ice we've had very little if any. We narrowly escaped Dec '13 by about 1/2 a county. We're actually over-due by all accounts. I just don't want to admit that we've been rolling the dice a long time and eventually snake-eyes are bound to show up..

Heck, even NMI had many years I didn't see my lawn from Nov 1st to April 1st. A lot of those years you wondered if summer would be a "no show", in '92 it never made it, lol. I couldn't take it anymore and had to move SOUTH! I do agree with his view that having consistent winter during winter months shouldn't be so difficult. These torch-offs are the worst and we've been getting 'em for 3 winters now. Calling BS on that fwiw

Already cancelled any meaningful winter for mby, certainly for yby it's ovva! Sure, we'll get nickels-n-dimes but building another glacier -doubtful. Never fear! Morch will be upon us with haste this year. Sky this morning looked like an April day..

We can hope at least..

You talkin about the 70F day on 2/18? That was sweet!

5.5" of "igloo cement" from round 1 here in Marshall. Rebuilding a nice snow pack after nearly completely getting wiped out just last Wed. Total for month of Jan now knocking on 20" despite the wasted rainer event. We'll see if the PV visiting Lake Michigan's warmer than normal January waters can be a booster?

A fun few hrs tho and snow on snow for once. My Jan > my Dec

Had near bliz conditions here in Jackson for a while this morning - great stuff

Thoughts on GRR's southern counties then?

Front-end thumpers are nice, just had higher hopes for this based on where guidance began 5-7 days out.

Euro's been known to be stubborn, only yielding at the last hour. Has bit me here on several storms. Dec '12 bliz for a prime example

Same story of this season - we ride a last-minute edge here!

definition of "a bit"?

Thank you! Extremely frustrating office, especially for one who lives along their SE most counties where we've been hit twice by 6-10" storms and no watch issued.

If I'm stuck suffering negative numbness - go big or go home!

It doesn't read clippers well, it'll fold tent at the last minute in epic fashion

..ques up Queen's "Another one bites the dust"

Yep. KRMY hit -22F Monday morning about 8:30, well after sunrise

Map link? thx

Huh! Lot's of chatta but not one eye-candy map. I like the restraint of this sub! Guess we're saving 'em for closer in. Well then..

yep, -4.3" even up here. Sure felt like OH. Nice snow hit and washed away 3 days later
