Nice! Over-performed slightly from all the guidance I saw.

Certainly overperformed here. Ended last season with a 4.4" snow storm on April 20/21st and then now getting a 4.0" snow storm to start a new season on November 27th. Pretty nice. We had a few slushy tents of an inch earlier in November but this is real Winter wonderland stuff.

Finished with a total fall of 4.1" of snow with 0.42" liquid equivalent. Snow did compact a little overnight as well as fall off the trees somewhat but still absolutely gorgeous scenes this morning. I November Winter wonderland to be sure.  It was a general 2 to 4" snowfall for the Detroit area with the heaviest swath of 4 to 4.5" along i94 from ARB-DTW

NAM caught on last-minute with a slug of moisture blossoming in NOH and coming our way before sliding east. DTX mentioned the convective nature of this final batch of plaster. I arrived back from travels to Frankenmuth just after it had ended so I missed out on seeing those more impressive rates. Still, saw an entire day of steady snow falling and temps well below freezing. Really, you would have thought it was January. Appreciate your photos.

I finished with 0.42" liquid in the 4.1" snowfall. Model qpf ranged from 0.1-0.25" leading up to it. So I consider it an overperformer for sure. How did Frankenmuth do..maybe an inch? Awesome time to be up there.

This will be only the 3rd time in the past 25 years that Chicago will finish November with less than 30" of precip on the year.  The other 2 years that it happened were 2005 and 2012.

I've recorded 23.01" of rain in McHenry this year. Severe drought continues.

1/2" only while we were there (a little bit disappointing tbh). They may have gotten more later on, idk.

Detroit finishes November with 7.1" of snow, which ties with 1972 for the 15th snowiest November on record. Through the 26th only 0.9" of snow had fallen. Temperatures finished colder than average with precipitation below average, but neither made it anywhere near their respective top 20 list. 

 

I finished with 6.6" snow.

Did some flash research after you posted that.  Chicago will finish without measurable snow in November (only a T), making it the first time on record that Chicago will go without measurable snow and Detroit will have 6"+ in November.  As you might expect, the two cities typically follow each other somewhat closely... sucky Novembers tend to be sucky for both, good Novembers tend to be good for both, etc.

Interesting data, I just looked it up and yes typically the 2 cities follow each other. I looked up all of the Novembers without measurable snow in Detroit, and only one of them had meaningful snowfall at Chicago, 1896 with 4.2".
