turtlehurricane Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Low of 22 this morning, lake temp down to 47. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Temp dropped to the upper teens here in the city, about 15 or 16 at the airport. My hummingbird survived the first very cold night and sub-freezing day, but a second even colder night was apparently too much. He never showed up at the feeder this morning.

michsnowfreak Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Per DTW obs, looks like light snow (7-9 mi visib) fell much of the night, but no accumulation. They reported Lgt Snow from the 2am thru 5am obs. The solid overcast also kept temps in the 33-35F range all night, though we should nosedive well into the 20s as long as some clearing takes place tonight. Another long week of boring weather on the way, but I repeat, better in mid-November than during winter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 All the way down to 21° this morning. Nice to see the sun today! That little bit of snow in Cook County really caused some nasty wrecks this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Dropped to 20F here... not a cloud in the sky today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtrackertf Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Might be the coldest night of the season so far tonight in Detroit. Certainly is chilly out there right now at only 35°F during peak heating. Had some snowflakes this morning while I was doing some very last minute yard cleanup.

Jonger Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Yeah these painfully boring stretches are not my favorite as it causes my work days to creep along. Imagine being a winter weather fan and only being able to land a job in southern California. Fog is just about the most exciting thing to forecast outside of santa ana's.

Geos Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 39° for a high today. Month to date is about -3.5°. Looks like a snoozer for awhile! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 DTW with a high of just 35F today, first high in the 30s since March 9th! Through 6 pm, we had High 35, Low 33, T snow, solid overcast. Few breaks have developed in the clouds, so now begins the temp plummet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Decent low level frontogenesis across southern Minnesota associated with a small wave. 925 mb temps are above freezing where the frontogenesis is though so only a few drops of rain if that. Very dry air near the surface. GFS forecast couldn't be more boring, Arctic air and the strongest baroclinicity staying in northern Canada for the foreseeable future. I have no complaints about highs near 50 and lows near freezing as long as the sun stays out though. Stratospheric polar vortex developing nicely as usual, it's actually a little colder/stronger than usual throughout most of its depth but especially from 30-40 km. http://www.cpc.ncep....ere/strat-trop/ Wash your car, it is a Mustang, it should shine like a diamond. Agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Bullseye! Haha. At first glance I thought there might have been a decent amount of snow falling in those parts. I must say that I've never seen a snowfall map produced for a trace to 0.4 inches event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Coldest Morning OTY. 20 degrees Well last night was our coldest night of the season so far, and DTW came in as THE warm spot in SE MI with a low of 25F. DET was 23F, and many of the colder spots were in the teens, including 16F at DTX, 18F at FNT, and yes at the ever-cold ARB, it got to 17F. Per wunderground mby got to 22.9F. Though we have had many freezes, this was definitely our longest freeze, even DTW spent 10 hours at or below 28F, so this bodes well for having killed any possible lingering anything lol.

It was definitely our coldest night here along the lakeshore as well...first time we were in the 20s for an extended period this season. It was in the mid to upper 20s for about 13 hours. The vegetation that had any sign of this past warm season's life definitely looks different today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I think November is going to be cold and snowy. Going with -5F departures and 12 inches of snow for MKE. lol 24º for the low at LAF this morning. -5.5º departure through yesterday for November. I'm bump trolling myself, but I might be eating my lol if we don't get some positive temp departures soon. MKE's probably gonna have top see the big dog to get to 12" though.
