Stebo Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 17.1" of snow for the month here as of Midnight, which puts us at 14th snowiest February on record. With today's snow we will end up in the top 10 for snowiest February, maybe as high as 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Wow. Imagine driving from Bad Axe to Benton Harbor this morning. With almost a 40 degree difference, 21 would feel downright warm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indystorm Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Patiently awaiting Monday's snow to arrive here. Reports are that it comes in like a wall. I've really only seen that a few times in my life, most memorably in the late seventies when I wanted to drive from Bloomington IN north to Indpls. Started out on IN 37 in partly cloudy skies and there was a literal wall of gray, heavy snow on up ahead. Turned around and went back to campus.

Geos Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Was just comparing the latest model run temperatures across the western 2/3rd's of Iowa and eastern Nebraska and they busted. Temperatures over performing by 4-12° across the board. EURO seemed to have the least error. GFS and Canadian seemed to be the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Nice write up from LOT on snow and ice coverage this winter. Has a couple of cool loops of daily snow depth, starting in November. http://www.crh.noaa.gov/news/display_cmsstory.php?wfo=lot&storyid=100410&source=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjwise Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 If Detroit holds onto the negative temp. departure for the month (seems likely since we're at over -10 right now and the warmup doesn't seem to be like it's going to be particularly long-lived before another trough sweeps in), NDJF '13-'14 will be the first four-month below average temp. stretch since MJJA 2009. If the NAEFS and CFSv2 has its way for March, NDJFM would be the first five-month stretch in quite a long time - maybe some time in 2004? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beavis1729 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 ORD is up to 39 at 11 AM...already above the forecast high. I realize this isn't much above normal for mid-Feb...but hard to take for a snow lover after the incredibly snowy conditions yesterday afternoon.
