DTW is consistently among the warmest temps in the area, and it did not used to be. Used to be one of the better radiators. Its not that theres anything wrong with the sensors, but i think changes in nearby environments, pavements, construction, etc play a part.

I wish you a speedy recovery. Think positive, you will get back to normal. Im an injury adjuster, so my job is going over injuries and medical treatment of people in car accidents. What you are describing is pretty common, so you will get back to your pre-accident self.

1st 90 of the year. I predict we fall short of the avg of 12, just a gut feeling.

Pretty much all of southern lower Michigan has been cloudier than normal the past year. Its crazy.

I am definitely sick of the rain. In terms of amounts we have not had nearly as much here in Southeast Michigan as much of the rest of the sub has, but in terms of how often it's raining, it just seems to be all the time. I love cooler than average temps in the summer, and I do not mind overcast. Of course I would prefer Sun this time of year, but I'm not one of those people who gets depressed just because it's cloudy. (In the late fall through Winter I love overcast, but this is not winter lol). And I can definitely say humidity is never something I have enjoyed. If we can just dry out some and have near to below average temps the rest of the summer, that would be wonderful!

Yes sir! I was thinking of that yesterday...we are wasting the longest days of the year on solid overcast day after day.

Hopefully if nino is here in winter it is weak.

We are now passing the midway point in June and I have not yet had to turn my central air conditioning on this year! Awesome!

Definitely starting to get that feeling this will be a cool summer. Of course there will be hot days, im talking overall.

What a map for June! 45 at DTW but upper 30s in outlying areas

Spring weather is enjoyable, Spring allergies are NOT.

I heard someone else say they would take 65ﾟ every day of the year. I would hate the same thing any kind all year long lol. Different strokes for different folks, but I'm sure you'd miss the changeable weather if it really was 75° and Sunny every day haha.

Sun has been a rare commodity these days too, so looks like great weather for the game. Now the Tigers need to get a damn win!

Pictures of some flooding near DTW on May 1st after 3.20" of rain fell quickly overnight. Took these pics on the way home from work.

Lol too funny. Though Chicago and Toledo do average a very similar annual snowfall total.

I am aware that I am in the minority and I do not care one bit.

It's almost comical, like clockwork I got a horrible headache on March 21st and had another one this morning. To say that I hate Spring would be a gross understatement. We have 4 seasons, Winter, allergy, summer, and fall. I'll take another Winter in April like last year. In fact I will take that every year. Everything dormant then in the 1st week of May everything exploded. The more gradual the Spring green up is, the worse allergies are.

Don't get me wrong I love our sub forum and we really have a good group here, easily the most drama free group in this entire forum I would have to imagine. Its just strange when you can see a New York City sub forum and then one that ranges across practically the entire center of the country lol

It is rather strange. I'm seeing all these excited poster's comment in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin and I'm thinking, where did they come from? I only thought we had 1 or 2 from each of those States. But when you think about it, many of these past winters, they did not have too much to talk about while we were getting slammed. Meanwhile they're talking about this like it's some great Winter (which for them it is) and im over here all meh. Certainly its not the worst and there have been a few exciting moments, but with all the fun that has happened the past 15 years, this Winter is going to slide wayyy down to the bottom of the memory bank as soon as it's over. Is this some weird anomaly? Not at all. It's to be expected that when one area does well another won't do as well and vice versa. It's going to be virtually impossible for this entire sub to be enjoying the same type of season (ie good or bad), which really does make you wonder why this huge sub isnt split further.

Interesting. There has been a signal on gefs for days centered on that weekend as well.

That's crazy. At Detroit the total since 2011-12 is a 33.0" surplus. Going back to 2007-08, the last 10 years, Detroit has a surplus of 112.4"! That's assuming this season is done which it may not be. Does anyone have the avg for Toledo? I'd like to see their stats in that time frame. I know chicago is definitely a surplus but probably not quite as high. FYI the lowest back to back winters here was 1936-37 & 1937-38 with a total of 35.5" (12.9, all time lowest, followed by 22.6).

Wow, I didnt realize that. Thats crazy.

I loved last years tundra winter of deep snow, but outside of the massive Feb 1st snowstorm there werent really any big storms. Now 2013-14 on the other hand, that winter was a haven for one snowstorm after another, We had 6 storms over 6"+ here (4 of the 6 were over 8") so its crazy if Cleveland missed all of them.

Yup, and 2 winters in a row no less!

Valdez is already the snowiest city in the US (avg 326") yet they are getting record snow for them. Meanwhile, the continental 48 so far this season has seen below to much below normal snowfall nearly across the board.
