cyclone77 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Really nice day today. Made it to 69 with full sun. Luckily models have backed off the 1-1.50" rain they were showing here the next few days. Now looks like a half inch or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Little late, but heres a pic I took Sat morning, April 20th. Assumably this 0.1" will be the last measurable snow of the season. Assumably lol. It was both regular snow and graupel, and was frozen to elevated surfaces, requiring scraping not brushing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it wasnt anything spectacular most of the winter, below normal at the beginning of March. In fact by the close of February, Detroit had 9 inches on Minneapolis. But this spring has been absolutely ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowMeHunter Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 too lazy to go and drive out to the mid-60's inland and fishing probably would have sucked from shore anyways so McDonald's fillet of bass sandwiches it is for dinner instead of fresh fish. Today even at home was a top shelf day for this springs standards and I got a lot of yard work done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Done deal. We can play here. Trust me, there's a golf course under all that water. The photo is actually from 2003, but it looks the same/similar right now. Good example of why it's closed for good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I saw bowme mention tropical aka cromartie. It's too bad he got banned. It would be fun to torment him about the winter that won't end and now the cold lake temps with the accompanying breezes causing his palm leaves to curl.
