Geos Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 I can see some snow showers have made it into Kenosha and Racine Counties. Looks like I'll get in on that action too. Edit: Miss. Scooted off to the east too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I was actually in Detroit (near Springwells and 75) and it was raining good and it was mixed with snow (probably more rain than snow, but the flakage was noticeable). Just very light rain at home, so I will assume we didnt get a T of snow here. So while we are on board for the season (trace of snow October 23rd), not for November yet.

Geos Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 On and off snow showers this evening here. Has MKG hit 32° yet? Clearing out here, almost down to freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Has MKG hit 32° yet? Clearing out here, almost down to freezing. Nope! Sort of ridiculous. It amazes me how slow it is to cool down here at night. I haven't even really seen frost yet. We have had four different days now with wintry precip., but no freezing temps. It is definitely a microclimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Already have frost on my car windows. Clear as a bell. I see AZO is reporting -SN now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestMichigan Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Nope! Sort of ridiculous. It amazes me how slow it is to cool down here at night. I haven't even really seen frost yet. We have had four different days now with wintry precip., but no freezing temps. It is definitely a microclimate. Same here. Snow on a few days, even measurable snow once, but no frost or 32° temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Same here. Snow on a few days, even measurable snow once, but no frost or 32° temperatures. I thought you'd be far enough inland to get the frost. How much snow did you get with that lake effect event a couple of weeks ago? I was on my way to South Bend and the roads even got bad between Holland and South Haven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 25.0° this morning here. The frost looked like a dusting of snow. A lot of leaves fell off in front on the house this morning. Enough leaves to allow the early morning sunlight to come pouring in the bedroom - first time since late April before the leaves formed on the trees. Can't wait to use this on the snow! Called a Snow Wolf. Supposed to be easier on your back and it flings the snow further than you can throw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who really cares about early November, its all about DJF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Nice pictures under that link, Hal! Hit 46° today. Under performed a bit. Was not windy today at all, like the local met's were saying. Turned out to be a good day to rake leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Been pretty windy all day and eve. Pretty much have all bare trees around the neighborhood now. Maybe a snow shower or some flurries Monday night, but other than that the weather looks cold and benign for the foreseeable future around these parts.

RogueWaves Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Was kinda surprised to see some snow covered ground yesterday evening near Battle Creek. Was below a hill with tall pine trees for shade. Snow OTG surviving all day on 8-Nov bodes well I feel. Btw, where's all this torchiness folks were talking about after the 2-wk Oct chill?

wxman1952 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Reached 51 here today. Speaking of leaves, still waiting for our neighbors tree to finish falling. With a west wind, we get most of those to rake. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Hit 60° briefly here with a gust of 41 at FWA. Heck with the leaves. I'm just watching them blow around. I'll rake whatever's left later. I only bothered with the ones that were settling into piles from the wind action. A lot of leaves did end up blowing to the neighbors yards! I have way too many not to get a head start on it. Burn? Yes I do. Had to knock that off by about 2pm when the wind became more gusty. A calm wind of a nice light NE wind is ideal for burning, since the smoke doesn't usually head towards my house or any other houses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
