N. OF PIKE Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I was reading through the thread and noticed you guys talking about the models not showing anything this early into IN with this storm and certainly not this far north. It kind of reminds me of last year when I could sneeze and cause it to snow. not from here and won't spend more time posting in this region but the 18z nam has done an ok job showing area of .10-.25 qpf up thru s central indiana over to w. ohio from 1-7pm. didn't really handle the precip in central and SE ohio over to SW NY and w . pa that great and looks like it going to be about 5 hours to late with precip for S PA/ wv/ w. md p.s and parts of central ohio are seeing snow like just n and w of CMH port columbus airport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Rent Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I can't tell if it's freezing rain or not here. Not coming down hard enough, no accumulation on metal signs though. Sent from my ADR6400L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 What a kick in the nads. I have to add 0.4" of s***t to my snowfall total, with possibly more by morning. I almost rather have zr.

OHweather Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Am seeing some light sleet right now, occasionally a snow flurry will mix in. Reflectivities too my southwest are high, but these are likely over-representing precip rates due to wet snow and sleet aloft. Should see a light wintry mix continue through much of the night...am under a winter weather advisory for a light dusting of snow and a light glaze of ice.

Powerball Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 wow. nothing here. didnt expect anything though. Although virga was all over the region this afternoon/evening, there was a notable band of 25-30dbz virga that sat between the I-94 and M59/I69 corridors (probably some frontogenesis/convergence between the system coming from the suoth and the cold front moving through from the north), and it ended up sitting over this area for so long with its heavier precipitation rates aloft that it eventually saturated the atmosphere enough from top to bottom for precipitation to reach the ground in the aforementioned areas. I also received a dusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordoFabulous Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 It's been doing all combinations of snow, sleet and zr since about 4pm, if I remember right. The result of all of this is the most disgusting precipitation I have ever seen on the ground. It's not like snow, it's not like sleet, it's not like ice. It's like cottage cheese.

Ajdos Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 wow. nothing here. didnt expect anything though. The roads are in horrible shape! Literally all iced up. Took me from 16 mile Van Dyke-Hall Rd 25 minutes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Rent Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 It's not like snow, it's not like sleet, it's not like ice. It's like cottage cheese. I knew I forgot something at meijer. It seems the roads actually improved from about 6pm until 10pm. I haven't been out since, but it was mostly liquid coming down then.

Harry Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Meanwhile about 34 and 45yrs ago we had this looming.. From GRR this day in weather history.... 1/25/1967 Temperatures reach the 60s for the second day in a row across Lower Michigan. However, the spring-like weather is about to give way to one of the greatest snowstorms on record. The Weather History for January 26th 1/26/1967 Temperatures in the 20s are some 40 degrees colder than the day before, and heavy snow begins falling, piling up a foot or more along with increasing winds. 1/26/1978 A storm known as the Cleveland Superbomb moves north from the Gulf of Mexico and deepens explosively, becoming one of the worst blizzards in Midwest history. From one to two feet of snow falls across southern Lower Michigan, whipped into huge drifts by strong gusty winds. Several new records were set including a new record low sea level barometric pressure of 28.68 , observed at 6:00 AM. At least 9 deaths were attributed to the blizzard, most roads were impassable, roofs collapsed under the weight of the snow and the airport in Grand Rapids was closed from late on the 25th until the 27th. Governor Milliken declared a state of emergency and requested additional federal aid for snow removal. 1/27/1967 Chicago's greatest snowstorm on record also extends into Lower Michigan, where Battle Creek records 28.6 inches of snow. The storm total at Lansing is 23 inches and 18 inches at Grand Rapids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Looks like plain rain right now. 00z NAM spits out over .5 qpf and GFS has decent precip so we'd have some issues if it were ice but I'm not sure if we will be able to make it back down to freezing.

So close, yet so far away. Temp on my thermometer stuck in the 33-34 range...but still somewhat of a gloppy mess remains in the parking lot here this morning. I also noticed LAF is not reporting precipitation totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherpsycho Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 2011 pattern continuing so far as IN/OH are very wet. Southern part of DTX forcast area being clipped. DTW much above normal precip. Flint/Saginaw basically near normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 This should probably go in the complaint thread, but...this system is pure weather hell to me. 33.4 and rain...after the mixed bag start yesterday.

Chicago WX Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Though both may have been slightly too far west initially, Ukie and GGEM from a few days ago FTW...for this neck of the woods anyway (with respect to seeing precipitation). The GFS and NAM were an embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
