Brian D Posted Sunday at 08:30 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:30 PM SN right now with massive flakes exceeding 2" at times. Golf ball flakes and lots of quarters under calm winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted Sunday at 09:39 PM Share Posted Sunday at 09:39 PM Daily dustings of snow the first 3 days of January (0.5, 0.3, 0.2). Went sledding with a nephew today, perfect winter day for it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot break out of the pixie dust flakes and haven't seen what you've posted twice recently in so many years I don't even remember when. 11-29-11 were good sized flakes and I'd be willing to bet it has been that long.

Happened only once last year. This year is great. Normally don't see flakes this big all that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now January - March can really kick into high gear for winter fun. Locally, its been a good winter for cold and snowcover, just not big storms - the ground has been white since Thanksgiving weekend with the exception of Christmas week lol. Hoping after this weeks thaw winter really digs back in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted Monday at 04:18 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:18 PM 2.3" imby. Mammoth aggregate was such a bonus. Those flakes must have been cloud dancing before hitting the floor. Up N they got 6-10" in Cook county with 3-4" in N Lake/St. Louis County area. Had to look at CoCoRahs map to get totals. Usually they plot 1" or greater reports for sure, and some lesser ones, but a little behind this morning. Might be under staffed atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueWaves Posted yesterday at 02:27 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:27 AM Nice little storm delivered 3.5" here over night making for a very snowy commute. Most of NMI is well AN in the snow fall dept. East side such as Alpena is just barely so due the lack of traditional storms bringing moisture up from the Gulf. Trails are excellent now that 99% of the tourists are back to work/school. Could've used this for the holidays but at least it wasn't another rain-off like last December 29th or the year prior with no snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RemoteSenses Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Warmth over the next few days will prob take out our very minor snowpack here (probably 2” of slush left). Guess I’m watching Saturdays system but it’s not looking like anything huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago The fog has really held down our temp this week. Yesterday, mid to upper 40s turned into 30s. Today, it's in the upper 50s in Ottumwa, but we are still in the upper 30s. It is finally sunny, but there is not enough time left to heat up too much.
