michsnowfreak Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 And I still have more snow on the ground after this sucky feb the day after josh got 4.7" EPICCCCCC FEB, DEEP DEEP SNOWPACK. Deep deep weenie's is all feb has brought. Todays depth is 2" at DTW and 1" at MKE, so unless MKE is full of sh*t, I dont think you have more. This is the time of year when shade has way more than sun so have to avg. Since Feb 20 DTW had a lot more on the ground than MKE until 2 days ago, thats thanks to heavy rain. Why the hating on an epic Feb? It broke records, not to mention had surprise snowstorms. You guys had the epic storm, we had the epic month, both had the deepest snow in years. This all SHOULD be acknowledged for what it is on a weather board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo6899 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 If we can get that junk on the east coast to move perhaps the super clipper for next weekend can dig further south? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 If we can get that junk ont he east coast to move perhaps the super clipper for next weekend can dig further south? Opposite. You want the trough along the east coast to stay put, strengthen confluence, and allow that clipper to shear to the south. GFS scoots the D3 storm east so quickly the clipper's allowed to amplify and track north of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Euro has a secondary hang around and the low still goes north so we will see what happens EURO is slower than the GFS, but if you loop its H5 plots, it's still what I'd call progressive. If you remember all of last winter and December of this year, what would happen is the energy responsible for the D3 storm would head towards Atlantic Canada, close off, and stall. That's what we need. -NAO helps out in that regard but it's not playing ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 my official probabilities of getting to 50" after upcoming event: 30% by end of season: 55% Slightly better than a 50/50 shot, I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Slightly better than a 50/50 shot, I like it. If we don't get it with the next storm, we should at least be less than an inch away. I think we can probably pick that up somewhere along the way. Oh yeah, chance for 60: 5% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo6899 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Very interesting scenario on the GGEM. You got a retrograding low and an apporaching clipper. Phase or both shear apart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Have a few flurries around here this afternoon. Nice to see flakes again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Flurries are falling here too as the sun sets. There were elevated snow showers all day, but there was a layer of low-level subsidence which ate all of it. Boundary layer cooling as the sun sets is probably why we're seeing stuff now, since all layers are getting more saturated from the cooling. I could see it getting heavier over the next hour or two from that, and then it'll dissipate by about 10 pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Most surfaces are covered, it's building up pretty quick. Might squeeze out half an inch if we're particularly lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Snowed here most of the day/// nothing stuck. Fog now. I'm really not seeing any hints of warm wx. I might start crying if it doesn't hit 60F soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
