snowstormcanuck Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 All them planes landing is blowing all the snow away from the airport before it gets a chance to hit the ground 12" is definitely better than 10"...last I remember you were only at like 4"...where did all this new snow come from lol Actually, today marks the 7th straight day of accumulating snow here: 0.2", 0.1", 1.5", 0.8", 0.1", 1.7" (so far).

Trent Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Temps just surged to 50 here as the warm front crawls northward through the night. This is the 12th day so far in December and January that it has hit 50, tomorrow will be number 13. Conversely BKL has only had 7 sub freezing high temp days. In fact, the forecasted high tomorrow was just 49. And we've already just hit that. Wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow turns out to be the warmest day this winter.

Jonger Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Don't forget that the new climate normals went into effect this year. So comparing departures isn't apples to apples anymore. For example last year "normal" temps at TOL for January were 23.9, this year it's 25.5, so 1.6 degrees warmer. At CLE they went up from 25.7 to 28.1 ... a whopping 2.4 degrees. So the departures this winter look less extreme this year, but it's mostly due to the new normals. I'm guessing the anomaly of the 1970's drops off the books.

turtlehurricane Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 39 °F at 8 pm, loving this mildness. Tomorrow will be the meltocalypse with an already softened up snow pack and warmer temperatures.

snowstormcanuck Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 2.4-2.5" here so far. Snowing heavily still. Not bad. Heaviest thus far lol. 2.7" will be the storm total here. Seemed kinda high just based on appearances (I would have eyeballed it a hair over 2"). But I measured in several spots and there was virtually no wind. Jan will finish with 8.8" monthly snowfall.

But I measured in several spots and there was virtually no wind. Jan will finish with 8.8" monthly snowfall. I got 6.5cm here, not bad I guess lol. Since November, here are my monthly snowfall totals; November: 2.1cm (0.8") December: 12.9cm (5.1") January: 24.1cm (9.5") Total=39.1cm (15.4") And remember normal is around 80-85cm. Too bad this will be gone in a couple of hours, how sad. Then again every flake counts this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLE-LAKEFRONT CLOUDY 50 26 39 S25G39 29.94F Wow thats nuts. I was aware of the temps to our west and northwest, but didnt realize it was that warm in Cleveland! Detroit has actually dropped to 28F from our high of 34F with our inch of snowcover still completely intact. Will be interesting to see when the temp starts surging. EDIT: went from 31F at 9pm to 28F at 10pm to 32F at 11pm. Here it comes I checked and DTW has hit 50F+ 7 times in Dec/Jan (4 in Dec, 3 in Jan). Tomorrow should be #8 (MOS has us in the upper 40s but per upstream obs Im sure well hit 50). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us, while temps should warm pretty well regardless, how warm they get will depend on the development of stratocumulus. DTX is pretty optimistic with their mostly sunny forecast and a high of 54*F, but I'm leaning towards climo and expecting a hazy day with broken stratocumulus tomorrow and highs in the mid-upper 40s. In fact, seasonal trends would support that too. There have been numerous days this winter where DTX forecast sunny skies and we instread had a notable period of BKN-OVC skies (Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Even immediately come to mind). BTW, City Airport is at 39*F now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front came through here just after sunset this evening ... after morning lows around 20 and afternoon temps in the lower 30s. Looks like KDUH in southern Monroe County is up to 45, give it another hour or two and you'll be in the 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 And according to TWN's 14 day forecast it's the last snow for at least two weeks I give it a 99.9% chance that you see snow between January 31st and February 14th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Its very calm here this morning. Once the warm front moved through temps spiked to the upper 30s then stayed steady all night, and with dewpoints in the low 30s, there has been no wind, no fog, and we still have a solid albeit light compacted snowcover of just under an inch (whereas yesterday it was a little over an inch). DTW's record high today is 60F think thats REALLY a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherbo Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm a little pissy at the weather right now. At this point, I hope the pattern stays the same and Spring comes in March. Sick of this crap. The "DEAD" of Winter and a week of 40's and 50's. On the bright side, gonna go for a long run today and that should be nice.

hawkeye_wx Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 57 here yesterday and low 40s all night, but the snowpack in my backyard has only dropped from about 5 inches to 3 inches. This stuff is dense. Even another day in the low 50s likely won't be able to melt it completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
