frostfern Posted yesterday at 01:39 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:39 AM Anyone else notice the large gravity wave rolls on GRR radar? It’s weird. There are strong gusts penetrating down into the cold air! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted yesterday at 05:51 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:51 AM Getting the worst lightning storm (frequent, prolific) I've experienced so early currently, just incredible. Its 4C and dropping, DP of 3C. 200+ strikes in 40 mins. 10mm in less than a hr I still have 5-8 inches snow on most grass with large snow piles. I don't know if its Mar 11 or the 12th but 14 years ago about this time I got one of my only severe t-storms since 2010 which crazily may be the only other frequent lightning event so early (kicked off the great March heatwave). I had sizable hail during that one, no hail in this ongoing storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine with me, don't want any hail damage lol. EDIT: Finished with 0.01" of rain for the day. Same here, had severe hail both north and south of mby. Granted 1” hail seems insignificant after watching videos of grapefruit in Kankakee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best event in months Yeah had a few large wet flakes mix in here too under a brief bright band. Changed back to very light rain shortly after. Still top 3 event in past 2 months.

TheClimateChanger Posted yesterday at 05:08 PM Share Posted yesterday at 05:08 PM Some good news. Hopefully, with lake ice coverage well below historical averages, we'll see somewhat less of a lake influence on spring temperatures this year. *Fingers crossed* 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted yesterday at 06:58 PM Share Posted yesterday at 06:58 PM Weekly ice for March 9. Been a decent ice season. This is only the 2nd week that ice was below avg, and that being driven by much lower ice on L Superior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted yesterday at 07:23 PM Share Posted yesterday at 07:23 PM Totally random, but sooo many people (myself included) have sinus infections. My moms doctor actually said she thinks one of the factors is bacteria released in the air when the snow melted started a big wave of those infections. Speaking of snow, the fact that a near-winterlong snowblanket protected the ground from much frost damage will combine with the heavy rain this past week to help the grass greenup quickly. You can already see some green emerging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just chalked it up to allergies, but normally symptoms aren’t this severe for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted yesterday at 08:46 PM Share Posted yesterday at 08:46 PM ORD had a high temp of 73° on March 9th, which broke the record high max temp for the date of 69° (2021/1974).

DocATL Posted yesterday at 09:33 PM Share Posted yesterday at 09:33 PM Yup. I didnt go to the doctor, i did a telehealth for an antibiotic, but my mom went and said her dr wore a mask and usually doesn't. Its all over.Flu B is rampant right now as well. Can present with milder symptoms than flu A and sometimes feels like a sinus infection.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted yesterday at 09:48 PM Share Posted yesterday at 09:48 PM Picked up an additional 0.02" today. Brings the 2-day total up to 0.03" and a T of snow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestMichigan Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Looks to be a windy day tomorrow. Lots of wind warnings out there with gusts to 60MPH. There are going to be lots of power outages if that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoboy645 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago So interesting fact, the high wind warning issued for tomorrow is only the 7th one on record for Columbia County according to IEM. 12/15/21, 2/24/19, 3/8/17, 3/16/16, 2/21/14, and 10/26-27/10 are the only other times that we have had one issued. I knew they were rare here, but I didn't realize that rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew they were rare here, but I didn't realize that rare. This got me thinking... we haven't had a HWW in a while in St. Joseph County. Turns out it's been the first one issued here since November of 2019! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if the ice is completely gone yet at Grand Haven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
