  1. Shades of the 2017 Bills-Colts Snow Bowl game.
  2. Same here. Have had radar returns all day, but haven't seen a flake/drop. Dry air munch.
  3. Welcome back Beau. Kinda looks apocalyptic out there. Measurin' in feet. Poster BuffaloWeather is in Hamburg, which looks to be ground zero for 4-5 feet.
  4. Todd Holston's discussions are usually...let's just say they're succinct. For him to write more than a couple of sentences says that he's pretty bullish.
  5. I don't know what would be worse for him, CAD and or a warmer by the lake 33 and rain.
  6. My 2.2" yesterday was on .22" of precip, so exactly 10:1
  7. I caught the very first tornado that day, an F-1 in Hartford City, IN. The same supercell that later dropped the Van Wert F-4. I was too up close and personal with it as it passed a couple hundred yards in front of me before smacking the Marsh grocery store. That kept me from chasing it, because I had to stop to check on injuries at the store. Otherwise, I probably would have chased it into Ohio. It also put down 2 more short-lived tornadoes (Wells and Adams Co.) before dropping big one.
  8. Still snowing, but not accumulating. Finished with 2.2"
  9. A nice way to begin winter, waking up and looking at the HHHR. Made me check current obs and saw that stuff to the southwest heading this way. Sitting under that f-gen band and accumulating here now. Surprise!!
  10. The tropical system remnants have really trended west. I even get a graze job.
  11. You beat me. We had a T of snow and 1.63".
  12. As dry as it is, forecasters would be wise to lean toward the higher end of guidance for highs.
  13. We even get in on some that action down here. Time to start a new sig
  14. Of course '89 is the gold standard for October snow in IN. An Indy TV station just highlighted it a couple of days ago. Interestingly, they have as their 2nd largest Oct. snow as 1993. I do not remember that event, and the others are from the dark ages.
  15. Which reminds me, where is Bo? I'm sure that he has seen flakes already.
  16. Picked up 0.09" last night/early this morning. First measurable rain in 18 days and a total of only 0.51" in the past 30 days. At least it's good for the farmers.
  17. ...and so it begins Monday Night A slight chance of rain and snow showers. Partly cloudy, with a low around 30. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
  18. Even though haven't quite hit peak here in the Fort Wayne area, I also noticed that the colors are brighter this year than the past couple of years.
  19. The first mention of the S word of the season in an Indiana forecast discussion. AND WITH FRIDAY, 500 MB HEIGHTS APPROACHING 540 DM, STILL UNSETTLED WEATHER WITH THE TROUGH SITTING OVER THE REGION, A FEW SNOW SHOWERS ARE NOT COMPLETELY OUT OF THE QUESTION. AT THIS TIME, I HAVE OPTED TO LEAVE MENTION OUT OF THE GRIDS, BUT AS WE GET CLOSER I WILL NOT BE SURPRISED IF THIS WILL BECOME NECESSARY. FRIDAY TEMPERATURES WILL STRUGGLE TO JUST GET INTO THE LOWER 50S. THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN.
  20. "I'm michsnowfreak, and I approve this map."
  21. I remember that event. I was fishing in a bass tournament in Marshall County IN (Lake Maxinckukee) and watched the lake effect clouds off on the horizon rolling across the sky. A blustery day on the water for sure.
