    Sitting inside enjoying the snowstorm. Will go out and play later. We probably have 3 with 2-3 more to go. Had 5 on the ground before the storm started.

    Absolute snow globe outside and expecting snow all day. Deep winter.

    Ever since @A-L-E-K took S. MI off the thread title each run gets better and better for us.

    NWS issued a winter storm warning for monroe co for 5-8". Advisory for wayne for 4-6" isolated 7". Advisory for Oakland and macomb for 2-4" isolated 5"

    Dtx thinking 4-6" here. Could have close to a foot of powder on the ground Monday morning!

    -10° at Detroit is the coldest since 2019. Ann Arbor, the usual cold spot with its bowl effect, hit -21°! Flint hit a record -24°. This is not my pic but its an incredible shot of sunrise at -10° over the Detroit River in Wyandotte.

    -10° here this morning. I think DTW low also -10 but unsure yet. Cold spot Ann Arbor hit -21°! This is not my photo, but an incredible shot of a -10° sunrise over the Detroit River in Wyandotte.

    Cold anamolies will continue to grow. Its like the tundra outside.

    Theres 2+ solid months left of winter storm potential. We know how quickly things can and do change. And I have no doubt in the meantime there will be plenty more nickels and dimes. Give us a cold pattern in MI and it snows.

    With all the blowing and drifting the past week i got to thinking. The drifts look cool but Im not a drift person overall. It compacts the snow too much. Exposes some grass blades in open areas. My avg depth is like 5" now. Packed powder. Perfect for cross country skiing and winter hiking but if there wasnt so much wind it'd be fluffier and deeper. Tundra sunset

    I have this weird feeling that Chicago is gonna get a huge march snowstorm or snow blitz that causes a very bookended season and makes for a solid snowier than avg winter despite a lot of zzz for you guys during actual winter.

    No prob, and yes the 2000s were December-heavy.

    Nov- 2 Dec- 12 Jan- 10 Feb- 13 Mar- 4 Apr- 1

    Hopefully the bleeding has stopped. Still a difference between American and foreign models. Temps will be in the low teens during the snowfall 12z qpf for DTW ICON- 0.15 GFS- 0.18 NAM- 0.24 GEM- 0.31 EUR- 0.31 RGEM- 0.36

    Enjoy! The cross country skiing should be phenomenal. With multiple layers of snow and plenty of compacting/settling/drifting, its that perfect "packed powder"

    Agree. February has been our pot of gold frequently in recent years. I believe either Sunday or Monday is the exact halfway mark of the snow season average-wise. Breakdown of 6”+ snowstorms at Detroit by month (Nov 1880 – Jan 2026) Nov- 8 Dec- 37 Jan- 45 Feb- 46 Mar- 31 Apr- 4

    Weve had lot of advisories, no warnings, though arguably Jan 15th couldve been a warning (it went from a 50% chance of snow to an advisory halfway through lol).
  21. michsnowfreak
    Yeah. Not happy about the totals being cut. But again. The Detroit area has 4-7" of packed powder base, so add several inches and more powdery snowbanks...deep deep winter. And before the storm hounds freak, a week ago this was going no further north than KY. we've always been on the northern flank with the question, how north will it go?
  22. michsnowfreak
    I guess I cant even fathom a comparison, because I know that under no circumstances would I EVER live in TX...but what a slap in the face how prone to ice they are in deep winter cold shots. Its like, you finally get DEEP winter cold with surface temps that scream powder but you get stuck with freezing rain and sleet.
  23. michsnowfreak
    Sit inside and watch the shit show unfold. Gonna be pretty frozen there for a few days for people who can NOT handle it.
  24. michsnowfreak
    Today and tomorrow is dangerous stay inside cold. But the rest of the week i will be in my glory. Deep powder and frigid winter air. Will absolutely be bundling up and taking some scenic walks.
  25. michsnowfreak
    Trust me theres nothing dirty about the state of the snowpack right now. Its fresh drifty arctic looking powder.
