cyclone77 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 We haven't had a snow greater than 1" since the early Feb blizzard, so winter's basically been over for over a month here. Really don't see any opportunities for additional snow anytime soon, so with that I'm pretty much completely into spring mode now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneyman Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Yup, I noticed that also. Has WI receiving about .25 qpf as well, all snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would exchange late winter nickel and dime bs for an epic blizzard like that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 March sun is showing in full force. Open, sunny areas the snow is getting assaulted, in the shade it isnt budging. Its that time of year though, spring is near, and after a great winter thats cool. Mornings like this morning make me not want spring yet at all. Took a ****load of pictures this morning. Heres a link of all 24 pics below, Ill just post a few here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Indeed. Winter is and has been over. Not according to JB...he thinks north of I-40 in the Plains to north of I-70 east of the Apps hasn't seen its last snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blizzard alone would have made the whole winter a solid A. Very nice pics Josh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

River Card Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Not according to JB...he thinks north of I-40 in the Plains to north of I-70 east of the Apps hasn't seen its last snow. Ah yes JB much like a herpes sore once you think he has vanished wham he appears again. Well only JB can change his tune every week to make himself look like God, he bombed this winter forecast and he can say whatever, no one knows for sure if a recoed low nao is coming or not, the ensembles show a mix of solutions. Sure you can be like JB and tout the same sh*t over and over and hit gold once in while. Anyhoo, the March sun feels great today and the first sign of greenup has appeared in the day lillies as some green knubs have appeared above the soli.

Stevo6899 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 GGEM/UKIE & EURO all showing a potent system for Friday, Mar 10th for the dakotas on east...each new run of these models has shown a better developed system. GGEM showing a mini blizzard for the dakotas with strong winds and an arctic shot to follow...maybe "cmichweather" can chime in on this further in a day or 2. from 12Z...ukie, euro & ggem 18z gfs has a nice little clipper for next fri-sat.

michsnowfreak Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 IMO, theres a difference between winter being over and not having seen the last snow. Winter as I see it (cold+snowcover) is over, today was a good example of that. Started the day with a fresh 4.7" of snow, after a day of full sun and a high of 34F, the snow in shaded areas merely settled to 3-4", but in sunny areas was assaulted, depth has melted down to a range of 0-2". That wouldnt happen on a January day thats sunny and 34F. As for seeing the last snowstorm? We have over a month to go, folks, at least this far north, before we are out of the woods, heck 2 months before we are out of the woods for last flakes.

snowstormcanuck Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Hope I don't get to 60" because it'll make it harder to hate this winter. And this winter really deserves to be hated on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowMeHunter Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 By the end of last march dandelions were running wild like Alek's chest hair. I think this yr somebody from here down to LAF is still in the game for a 6-12" snow event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 He's going to struggle to 55" as it is. Struggle to get 3" before the end of the winter ? Hell he might get that between the clipper and Tues/Wed thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
