Very wet month here as you alluded to. DTW officially finishes the month with 3.60" of precipitation and 31.7" of snow (2nd snowiest Feb/3rd snowiest month on record). Wonderful! You will get a few late season storms yet.

climatologically I probably would be favored for it. We will see. Last year was horrible but an anomaly. so things are looking up.

This may be inaccurate, but I always think of you guys way up there having two halves of winter separated by a large intermission. Phase one late Oct-mid Dec, then everything crushed to your SE through the heart of the winter, then phase two from early March through early May.

Yeah pretty much, Feb is always the driest month up here. Although we can get good snows during the dry months as well but not as common. March can deliver the goods though as can April.
