  1. 0Z ETA and NMM runs will take care of us.
  2. Yeah the 9th storm ratios were terrible. Hopefully we can do a bit better. Yes looks like we will have a good snow base for the coming cold!! Plus some LES to keep flakes flying and fresh looking!!
  3. How does it look for Thundersnow potential over here??
  4. Alpena has been missed being in the bullseye by many storms in recent years. I hope this is your time!! Enjoy!!
  5. Shhh don't tell them. Any upgrades and it will ruin it.
  6. Enjoy. Should be a good one up there. Much needed for winter sports!!!
  7. Bummer. I would burn a vacation day if I had established accommodations up there.
  8. Oh come on you suppose to say "finally a model showing the big dog properly" Does look like you have a very good chance of a second double digit storm in a week
  9. If I had a cabin up there I would be on my way right now!!
  10. Lately flights are delayed even with clear calm weather.
  11. If we don't lose the snow currently on the ground it should help. Starting from bare wet ground
  12. I am hoping we can get a 6" or so solid/glacier like base on the ground which the LES will freshen up.
  13. The 500mb VORT is a mess with this storm.
  14. Nice event today as it looks like MBY will end up with ~2" . Had about an 1" of snow remaining from the Jan 9th event (actually got a couple inches from the backlash) before this one started. So hopefully not much melting prior to tomorrow event as I would like to keep these few inches on the ground before it starts!!
  15. There have been some big LES events in the Thumb down to Port Huron. With the right NNE wind MBY had received a couple inches from Huron. It is similar to how Milwaukee down to Gary get LES events. They just don't make news/headlines when they happen being rural. Definitely not as common as the W to NW wind LES belts.
  16. I had a roommate at MTU from Midland area. He we was a weather buff too. He talked about the one time parts of Midland MI getting LES event ~4" off Saginaw Bay (and Huron) ... note this would have been in the 1980s.
  17. I have not heard of Toledo or Monroe ever getting a big east wind LES event. I know it is possible and probably has happened. At MTU (Houghton) a couple of my best LES events were E/ENE winds off Superior but they were not common to get at all.
  18. Does AA get LES during these outbreaks? Normally my area will get LES while not Allegan/GRR worthy it still can be decent. It is interesting how the LES band diminishes or even dies out prior to Lansing but then picks up over the hills around here.
  19. NAM being the NAM. Jan 8th/9th storm the NAM 48hour out had the LP in Wisconsin.
  20. Ensembles are expected to have a spread.
