beavis1729 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Heavy graupel. My graupel watch verified. We had a few graupel showers here over the past couple of hours, with temps in the low 40s. This is the latest in the season that I've ever seen wintry precip. Previous record was May 10-11, 2014, when we had a dusting of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Pretty brisk out there today, but really not all that terrible. Low 50s with the sun shining much of the time. Frost potential tonight, but then back to the 60s already for tomorrow, and beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the latest in the season that I've ever seen wintry precip. Previous record was May 10-11, 2014, when we had a dusting of snow. I'm guessing graupel qualifies as snow.... May 9th 1923, 11 inches fell in Lansing, MI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see there's some pretty good snow shower just to your west. Three Lakes in the thick of it right now. Sitting at 44° here. HRRR for tonight at 9z. Actually running about 3-4° too warm this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 As cyclone said, it's not terrible out over here with low 50s and sun. The wind is gusting over 35 mph, but it actually felt good on my face while mowing(had winter coat and stocking cap on)... plus the wind dried the grass out nicely so the mowing was easy. Models have delayed the real warm stuff a bit more. They are now bringing some light rain across the area Friday, which could hold us below 60 again if it pans out that way. DVN is thinking a dry ridge will hold the precip farther south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambana Posted May 14, 2016 Author Share Posted May 14, 2016 5-31?!? That is crazy. No graupel or anything here, but just a very raw day. Record low for this date is 34 set back in 1895, in play but probably safe. Skies are clearing just to my west and winds have calmed, should have a cold night regardless.

OHweather Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Some of the hi-res models develop a decent lake effect band across the Cleveland area for a few hours tomorrow morning...with a WNW flow and shortwave moving through its plausible. Would like to see 850mb temps of around -7C as that's when LES starts to accumulate in October...they're progged to be around -6C in the morning. Really close. I'm not holding my breath...but we've been seeing small hail in the heavier showers this evening and think some non-accumulating lake effect snow showers are likely in the morning tomorrow.
