SpartyOn Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Some say SeMi is the land of dying MCS and the dry slot capital..I think its also the land of spring backdoor cold fronts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 What a late day warm up! I was beginning to doubt I'd reach anything over 60° today. Was still 47° at lunch time. Up to 69° now. Doesn't look like rain anytime soon. Thought I'd share this cool morning sun over Racine County today! The sun beams were breathtaking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daddylonglegs Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 That bad boy is packing some wind...still gusty. Winds turned out of the west now. Looks like a couple of real nice days coming up with sun and highs in the upper 50Fs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Bit of a difference in Lake Michigan water temperatures after the cold and wave action yesterday I'd say. 3.46° drop! 48 hours ago... Present... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Present... Looks like the "hot tub" is cooling down.. An even bigger drop of 8 degree on the southern end of the Lake!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Might as well show Lake Huron as well. Notice the drop in Saginaw Bay! Now: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Ended up having a late day high of 70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 DTWs high/low during the day was 48/29 for a -3F departure (first below normal departure since Mar 9th) but an 11pm spike to 53 will allow the day to probably be a 2nd consecutive day of 0F departure.

turtlehurricane Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I was able to see the lighting flashes from the storms south of chicago from my friend's 14th floor apartment. Crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Looks like we'll close out March with less than an inch of precip for the month, and less than 3.5" for the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I was able to see the lighting flashes from the storms south of chicago from my friend's 14th floor apartment. Crazy. Pretty good. Farthest I've seen lightning was about 125 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastFromTheEast Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Looks like we'll close out March with less than an inch of precip for the month, and less than 3.5" for the year. Crazy to think we got nearly 3 times that in a mater of a day or two during a couple of the summer flash flooding events the past few years..

turtlehurricane Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Pretty good. Farthest I've seen lightning was about 125 miles. I'd say this was between 125 and 175 miles away, I could clearly see the tops of the storms too. Classic deep convective towers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Opening day looks classic! Low 40s! Very traditional around here. It almost needs to be cold or it does not feel right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 6z GFS delays the polar vortex until the very end of the run. It probably is wrong, it is showing below freezing temps in areas where frost risk will already be over at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I was able to see the lighting flashes from the storms south of chicago from my friend's 14th floor apartment. Crazy. Thats incredible. Those towers must have been fairly tall. The curvature of the earth comes into play around 120+ miles?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherpsycho Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Just for fun. Looking at the 12Z NAM. Some wet snow flakes might just mix in here Friday for the northern burbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
