Hoosier Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Only ones I can think of are the Wisconsin triplets...Green Bay, Madison, and Milwaukee. Of the official sites anyways. Not official but I think someone in northern IL had 100" in 1978-79. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I know it hasn't been an outstanding winter everywhere but your area, my area, you just have to shake your head. We are like 300% of our average annual seasonal snowfall right now. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought we'd be sitting here at 90.7" for the year. I mean I had an inkling of an active winter like 07-08 but I figured we'd have some severe weather and ice storms mixed in, instead it has been almost all snow storms except for one or 2 storms and one of them was 33 and rain.

A-L-E-K Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Antioch, 105.1". Geos probably had 150" that winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I can't think of many places in the lower 48 outside of the mountains or the lake belts that can say they have hit triple digits for a yearly snowfall. Truly a rare feat if achieved. Would be the first time in recorded history that 100+ fell from the lake all the way down i-94 to Detroit. Up to 108.5" here and thus 1.1 away from the seasonal record set in 2008-09.. Go 30miles west of here towards the lake and Bloomingdale i think is now approaching the 160" mark after whatever fell there this morning.

Geos Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Geos probably had 150" that winter Wasn't alive then. But look below for the 2007-2008 total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baum Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Please make it stop. Heck, feels like spring now even on mornings where it's 10 degrees. Can't imagine what 62 and sunshine will feel like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 SSC is ready for spring, time to shut it down SSC isn't even on the same side of the continent and he's had enough of our winter.

It will be time for the beach at 62°! Snow has melted off the areas where my daffodils come up, so they could be popping up soon. Looks like a mix of seasonable air and cold shots for the next 10 days on the EURO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Local guy says we are pretty much done with significant snow. Not sure if that's just a climo call or based on some combination of climo and the extended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 SSC is ready for spring, time to shut it down Seriously, what are we doing at this point? Chance of a big dog, already low enough in the heart of winter, are basically non-existent at this point. Not chasing any records locally. Others have already broken theirs (LAF, TOL). Give DTW its 3" and let's get rested for 14-15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Strictly number chasing for me. I want 75" and then I'll want 80". It's going to be difficult to get another winter like this around here anytime soon so might as well take advantage of the inflated totals and keep adding on. If April snow is needed to put me over the top, so be it...but ideally we'd mix in a lot of warm days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought 60" was achievable...and then it happened. Never thought 70" was possible...and then it happened. 80" might be a stretch considering the time of year, but...

Hoosier Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Lets do it http://www.crh.noaa.gov/dtx/talesmay.php That storm was a much bigger deal up your way but the longtime COOP here had 1.5".

My April 2005 15" storm had a peak depth of ~10" ... of course it was a prolonged 48 hour storm. It too was pretty much gone 24 hours later!!

stormtrackertf Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Lets do it http://www.crh.noaa.gov/dtx/talesmay.php I cannot imagine how weird that must have been to witness. Probably even more weird/disturbing than those mid 80's we had in March 2012. Same goes for the May 31st, 1910 trace of snow. I can't imagine 12"+ on the ground in May. My April 2005 15" storm had a peak depth of ~10" ... of course it was a prolonged 48 hour storm. It too was pretty much gone 24 hours later!! April 23-24 was probably the latest legit snowstorm I've ever seen around here and a part of a really awesome winter in general (deep snowpack on Christmas morning, the 12-14" snowstorm on January 22nd, etc) was crazy to see places in northern Oakland county getting over a foot in the last week of April. April 6th, 2009 was another late one that dropped some big totals around me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
