Chicago WX Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 The entire 6z run of the gfs has temps above 0C at UGN? I think he's talking min temps. Even despite his winter hating ways, Geos hasn't gone fully delusional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I think he's talking min temps. Even despite his winter hating ways, Geos hasn't gone fully delusional. Oh LOL ok...blonde moment on my part I guess. And yes, per GFS the min temp at UGN is only -1F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherbo Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Lake MI is looking more open. sw winds behind the departing storm on Friday, combined with decent moisture, could give sw flow areas a nice boost. Thursdays winds should wreak havoc on the ice on the southern end lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonger Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Tons of old pics with altered descriptions floating around Facebook. My wife had one that someone sent her entitled "Meanwhile in Charlevoix" and it was a 30 foot snow tunnel carved from the Mt Rainier area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Temps plummeted here overnight compared to some of you other guys...low of 15, but already back into the mid 20fs.

Brutal.Which is why they have a blizzard watch currently. would love to ride current storm out at thie tip of the Kee. Tons of old pics with altered descriptions floating around Facebook. My wife had one that someone sent her entitled "Meanwhile in Charlevoix" and it was a 30 foot snow tunnel carved from the Mt Rainier area. side note: Charlevoix looks like freaking Barrow Alaska right now.... solid snow covered ice for as far as the eye can see and then some. pretty amazing.

hm8 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Bit of a roller coaster with the temp here this morning KARB down 11 degrees from 4AM to 5AM, then a 10 degree jump up from 8 to 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowMeHunter Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 looks like 1-3" lost.... MKE airport was actually mostly colder than timmerman field to the north by 2-4 degrees from noon to 4pm and it looks like they would have lost about 2" it was dark when i rolled in from ice fishing and tired after being on the ice all day and then over an hr drive home so it was just a quick eyeball when I said 1-2" Like I said after if I would have dropped the 1 from the 2 it would have been more accurate. I'm sure behind my house where its mostly shade all day the depth prob dropped around an inch only.. then go where its mostly full sun and its prob closer to 4" give or take. so avg of that is 2.5". area where i was eyeballing was prob in between those two locations and is mostly shade until between 12:30 and 1 but after that its sear city.. I was definitely more amazed at how little was lost than how much was considering my truck was still reading 42 and breezy out when we left the lake in dodge county. takes some solid in to the 40's for many hrs to do a ton of damage even at this time in feb as long as the dews are low and the top snow is not high ratio stuff.

BowMeHunter Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 gotcha beat, 46 at mke airport.. down slope dandy.. sw wind is the ticket for cooler temps, not my west wind obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 My sensor shows 43.3F... gorgeous out there with full sun and almost no wind. NWS has a warning that they have to draw down Lake Arbutus (north of here maybe an hour or more) 6 feet because of dam issues... Imagine that ice! They closed down the whole lake and made people remove shanties. Be interesting if the ice will hold up or will it collapse? http://www.crh.noaa.gov/news/display_cmsstory.php?wfo=arx&storyid=100534&source=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitelakeroy Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Sun is out. 36 currently let the melting begin... The amazing thing is the NWS forecast had just 1 day in the 40s (Thursday). But just like that January 'melt' we end up with 4 days of 40s here. 40s last evening; 40s today; 40s tomorrow and again Friday (after midnight).

weatherbo Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 some usual shots to show how the snow is holding up. despite hitting 36 under full sun, not a ton was but roads are becoming clear after a long time. have to say tho, certainly was beautiful out.

Geos Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 @ DLL, with the river rising I would imagine the ice would lift up and starting moving downstream. Could get interesting. --- ORD down to 7" according to this source. http://www.nohrsc.noaa.gov/interactive/html/graph.html?units=0®ion=us&station=KORD&ey=2014&em=2&ed=22&eh=21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
