CAD means MI peeps can still get days of mood flakes from the lakes.  Doesn't add up to much but it is definitely uplifting to look out and see even just flurries floating around if you're a snow weenie.  West of the lakes CAD is abysmal because it's devoid of anything.  It's winter purgatory.

I will say one benefit of this winter is the extra sunshine from the CAD conditions.  Of course the portion of my morning commute that faces eastward at 745 AM is a downside of that 

Overperforming nicely.  Point had 32 but already up to 36 with a couple more hours to warm up

Down to -11. Should be in the low 20s today and the mid 30s tomorrow

Tanking already. Down to 3 above. Might put up a big number tonight

roads a bit slick this morning, may get up to an inch by evening

-14 here. Might squeak out -15 but warming should commence shortly

-7 this morning after a high of 4 yesterday. 

pretty cool phenomenon outside right now. There are streaks of virga at low levels but they aren’t falling from any cloud base. Just suspended there

Those 4" snows in April that melt by mid-afternoon just hit different.

Like a punch to the stomach

50 at Madison - definite overperformer

Say what you will about this winter, but this incoming cold wave is impressive considering the lack of snowpack both here and upstream. As of rn Monday is forecast to be 0 for a high and both Sunday and Monday nights are supposed to be around -10 for a low. That's pretty significant even if it's not historic or anything. We usually only have one or two 0 or below highs a winter, and pretty much all of those have snow and several inches of snow OTG. So pretty unusual. Of course, if we did have anything resembling a snowpack this would be a major if not historic cold wave. Still will be a frigid few days early next week.

I'm excited for the frostquakes

Down to -2 this morning.  Ready to rollercoaster this weekend

Got some surprise snowfall overnight.  Only a tenth or two but covered the roads and sidewalks again 

Down to 2 this morning. A lot of the snow from last week actually sublimated away overnight from the windy and dry conditions. First time I’ve seen that occur at night time

Got 0.2” with the front this morning. Actually accumulated more effectively on the roads than on the grass

Down to -4 with the fresh snow cover. 3rd below zero night of the season

Will likely end up around 5” here once all is said and done. Nice slight overperformance.  Can see how much if any survives the Christmas warmup

FYI - sunsets are already getting later

Down to -2F here for the first subzero low of the season

Don't look at the 00z Euro, but it caves to the GFS as the cold in the medium-long range is all gone, hinting at a possible Christmas torch beyond the 360th hour. 

there's a lot of art to your trolling, but consistently posting the wrong regional section from pivotal is definitely your warhol

Power plant by Portage, Wisconsin is causing a nice band of snow downwind

So Madison finished yesterday with a total of 2.21 inches of rain. Making it the 5th 2 inch plus day at Madison this year, tied with 2000 for the most ever. Making this year a top 10 wettest year on record with 43.60 inches and counting, probably will surpass 08 and 07 by the end of next week. And making this month combined with the .28 so far today, an average month of precip which is just hilarious. The whiplash of 2024 continues.

There’s a good chance we’ll be above the full month average November precip a week from

This is good and normal

3.94” with the storm total. Backyard did flood a bit last night 

1.87” so far tonight.  Going to be a big overperformer

We've had two hard freezes here but there's still a ton of bugs around.  The ladybugs have gone apeshit over the past few days, worse than I've ever seen.  

Same here. They are trying everything to get inside houses
