*IndyMeso* Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 It took about a half an hour after the switchover before it started sticking here. Temperature shows 37 right now... we got a little bit before it starts sticking like you said. People are excited though. Twitter is blowing up with reports.

extremewx52 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Yeah be fine for accumulation there then. Interesting seeing the oscillation to the west. LES111213.png Take a look at that kink in the reflectivity just west of Holland at 09z. I bet you anything that kink is the hrrr trying to develop a meso low. Even if the winds are from 340 or so, that could be enough to send the band westward into valpo for awhile and give a few hours of intense snow in the morning. The band usually will shift back east after a few hours but can give a quick 3-5" to the valpo area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the same thing a meso low would do on this side of the lake in a northerly wind situation with convergence along the shoreline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowstorms Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 We had some light mixed precip/fine flakes in downtown Toronto for about 20 minutes just before sunset. Nothing since. Temps down to about 34 with the front having moved through, a bit windy Yeah same had some flurries flying around for a bit but thats about it. The bands off GB and Lake Huron dont look very defined, maybe they will get cranking later on in the night but thus far nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nwohweather Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I cannot remember the last time the ground was completely covered in early November like this. Snowing hard and still coming down here, had to use the brush for my car and it's getting slushy out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 The snow here wasnt big flakes, rather it was small flakes blowing in sheets more typical of what you would see in a winter snowstorm rather than early-mid November. Had 0.4" of snow here, and 0.5" at DTW. It has pasted the grass/rooftops white and is now freezing into frozen crunch as the winter air seeps in. First measurable snowfall, November 11th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pumpkins that never ripened enough lol. Its always interesting when you can get a few remnants of Fall into those first snow pics. And boy, it sure feels like WINTER outside now, but once the last few trees with leaves on them see their leaves frozen off the next few days, time for all the leaf cleanup and then lets all get buried in snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder Road Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 T-Road you should like the looks of this. Indeed I do. We're all talking about it in the Wx Center. It's hell to forecast for the school districts though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Indeed I do. We're all talking about it in the Wx Center. It's hell to forecast for the school districts though. I would imagine if a district is large enough; one side of it could be just seeing a dusting, while another area of it is seeing whiteout conditions and 6" of snow! Pretty much all Berrien County right now. O yeah and the RPM map I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 By the way, I was checking the HRRR and it really doesn't show a meso-low. The westward movement of the band is due to an increasing land-breeze, which pushes the band back west for a time. This feature weakens in the morning and the band pushes back east before weakening. That's not to say a meso-low can't/won't form though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
