Harry Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Btw this first wave that is coming through right now across SWMI looks a bit stronger than forecasted, might be a nice 1-2 punch upcoming. Lake really helping the cause and more so then i thought it could do. Snowing at a decent clip now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Some 1/2SM vis SN FZFG reports coming in from WI as this thing strengthens. Madison and some auto sites are reporting 1/2 mile, MKE is at 1 mile. Yup, nice little accumulation out there. About to come to an end, probably 0.5-1".

Yup with 2" we would be .1" off the normal. just wish the day time highs were more like last jan instead of near 10 degrees warmer. this months high temps have averaged out to 35.5 lol. O well just one of those stinker winters that happen.. Still time to salvage a decent winter for parts of the gl/mw when the big snow storm winter still has in it hits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I see the "band" of Snowfall moving more toward FNT.. may see up to 2" Within the next couple of hours this will blossom area wide. Major Virga storm above also. I have not checked soundings but I assume we have a healthy layer of dry air. EDIT. Just started snowing downtown in Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
