Whoever is doing the OBS at Battle Creek, MI is crazy. Fair and 28°, when it's been cloudy all day and just recently heavy ice pellets and freezing rain.

 

Have had nothing here and i am downtown. Chances are good whatever hit you missed here and the airport  ( where the obs are taken ) as well which is closer to me.

36Dbz here in Battle Creek, MI.... NOTHING reaching the ground. By far the biggest Virga event so far this year. Or in the past 5!

 

Have some light snow falling here now for the past few minutes. Seems to wanna get going and then slackens off a bit again. It is trying.
