Ottawa Blizzard Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 will have to keep an eye on it.....i'm supposed to be traveling around then too, i am moving to northern VT just over the border for the rest of the winter....will still be keeping my eye on the weather in ontario and S quebec though. Yeah, I'd rather the storm be on the 5th, but we can't control the weather! A storm on the 4th we be a bummer given schedule is tight and I've planned my event in advance. Regardless, it'll be interesting to track! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmc76 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Snow reports Location snowfall duration (inches) (hours) lat Lon ... Genesee County... Flint M 0.6 M 43.02n 83.69w ... Oakland County... White Lake M 0.8 M 42.65n 83.50w recipitation will fall predominantly snow this afternoon...but we will see a few bursts of rain mix in at times. Precipitation type will change over to all snow after 21z as colder air begins to arrive on the backside of the system. Ceilings will also remain quite low through the remainder of the afternoon and into the evening...LIFR this afternoon (maybe a few dips to vlifr)...then lifting to IFR during the evening. Total snow accumulations are expected to range between 1 and 3 inches of wet snow. Snow will end uniformly from west to east at the terminal sites around 00z this evening. Northwest winds will then increase behind a cold front which will pass quickly through the Southeast Michigan between 23-02z...with gusts around 25 knots through much of the night. Along with the increase in winds...temperatures will fall into the teens behind the front. This will allow any leftover moisture on surfaces to freeze. For dtw...given bursts of rain this morning and the wet heavy snow...accumulations should remain under two inches. Most of this will be on grassy or elevated surface.

snowstormcanuck Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Per SPC mesoanalysis at 18z, Toronto's AOB -1c at 850 and AOB 0c at 925. Should start to see a mixture shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppsRunner Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Screwed over by the dry slot yet again. Not a single flake yet, but it's cold enough. I just got a few flurries here after about 1/3" this morning. That has melted and was replaced by rain. I feel your pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmc76 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 -SN again, with no accumulation so far except for a light dusting of wet snow on the grass this morning. Looks like a nice band of +SN moving across Livingston through NW Oakland Cty. Should hit my area. basically a line from Novi to Romeo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 If you'd buy the latest HRRR run, enjoy you upcoming 4-6" ha, I didn't catch that. I'm basically just nowcasting. I'm still liking about half that. Down to 33.5. Snow creating a slushy clear film on the deck and grass. Not quite "accumulating" I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L.B. LaForce Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 It's been snowing a decent amount the past 2 hours. The snow is hard to measure though since it started out pretty slushy making the whole bunch pretty heavy and wet. Probably about 1.5" out there right now in KBTL.

snowstormcanuck Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 nice.....that seems ahead of sched by a couple hours? Yes. I was thinking we'd have some mixing start about now and a full transition between 4-5pm. Right now, it's already 100% snow, albeit wet. So a good 2-3 hours ahead of what I was thinking.

It looked like the snow was trying to mix in at 3 pm but we're back to RA now. At this rate I'll be lucky to pick up 1" of slush.I guess I've already had a couple of surprise nickel and dime events so that this December isn't a total waste.
