  1. 1/6" of ZR with 1/6" of PL mixed so far here.
  2. Looks like a lot of potential. Maybe we can shake that boring March wx syndrome we have had in recent years.
  3. Mud month is where we are right now here. It has been horrible the past week. We still have many area of snow and ice (plus all the snow mounds). I live on dirt roads and this has been one extremely muddy week. Looking forward to the 60 degrees expected late Saturday and into Sunday to do it's best to melt most of it away!!
  4. When I lived in the Keweenaw March was such a great cross country ski month. I considered March a full winter month too. It was April when I was done with winter. You would start losing all the snow and then that April some would come and put 1/2 of it back on the ground. I recall May10th, 1990 snow that cancelled Summer classes at NMU (first time ever NMU cancelled summer classes due to snow).
  5. That has a bullseye IMBY in Livingston County
  6. Sometimes I find myself doing those things cause I just love playing in snow and digging out.
  7. Wish I planned a Marquette ski trip. I am visiting Nubs Nob. Thankfully all snow here but nothing like what you got!! Enjoy ... I too like to spend hours just being out in the snow like you are saying
  8. Here is a webcam at the ski hill just north of Washburn: https://www.mtashwabay.org/webcam.html
  9. Radar makes me think Washburn could rival Tug Hill type results!! I have been watching it on and off all day!!
  10. Yeah it will be interesting to see the totals at Washburn area as some models have that band there for several hours!! Wish I could drive there right now
  11. That is still a very cool event to get that much!! It actually happened twice when I was at Tech. Both ~2 hours long and both ended at 14". 1st one was in the middle of the night so I mostly missed it (I don't really count that one much). 2nd time was in the evening around 7-9. It was crazy as I took a nice long walk during it. The roads were basically at a stand still as I was walking faster than any vehicle moving on the road.
  12. I only got a little sleet right at the start but it was mainly snow IMBY. The other storm was much more cake on all the trees which was awesome. This one was great because we didn't have several crazy 24-30"+ model runs proceeding the storm.
  13. Just walked the dog. Been snowing great. Good 3" on the ground.
  14. 2 biggest storms of so far this winter in southern MI: DTX radar is down for upgrade for the first storm. GRR radar is down for upgrade for the second storm.
  15. Snowing here now with 1/4 - 1/2 dollar sized flakes!!
  16. Yeah the cold has good and bad parts. Can help with better ratios (more to it than just that) but then there is dry air. I think your area is sitting really good. I am a bit more on the north fringes so I am liking the slight nudge north with 12Z run. It will be clear where the main band is going to set in a couple hours for us as the precip in IL moves into MI.
  17. Hopefully a good sign for us further east...
