daddylonglegs Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Nice pics... still is pretty once you get away from the dirty skanky city snow. Just too bad you'd get frostbite if you tried doing much outside on a day like this. We are at 3F ...maybe hit 4F if we get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmc76 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 What was 1880/81 at through this point? Less then 10" to go.

dmc76 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Wow ... maybe he still thinks we are only going to get 1-3" last night too!!!

This guy must have been pushed into an opinion, statically speaking we should have a 40% shot at the record, so the house money would say no. Detroit averages 8.8 inches during March and April combined, wow... what a dumb quote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitelakeroy Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Your other favorite spot Bloomingdale is now up to 150.4" on the season! My sister broke the wench on the plow because they ran out of room for all the snow. We were just out there a couple weeks ago 'before the Feb thaw" and the piles enormous and roads were walls of snow. They were lucky to get the mail twice a week. They can't grill right now because the deck has 5'+ of snow on it ... . Hopefully they got some pictures. They're pretty sure they they lost there above ground pool.

cyclone77 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 MLI set an all-time lowest max temp for March today at 7. Point for tomorrow night has been bumped up to +3 from -3. However, one thing I wasn't thinking about is the possibility of still getting a subzero temp before midnight for today. Already down to 3 above.

Amazing what a difference just 35 miles makes to go from 100 here to 150 there. On average ( normal ) you gain a inch for every mile west you go from here with the seasonal snowfall. Not this winter. sheesh Wonder what the highest total for the winter is out that way from there up into Allegan and on up to Muskegon, etc?

Not sure how they can be so confident about that during a season where we've gotten this much snow, and considering our biggest snowstorms of all time have happened after the current date...

stormtrackertf Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I have to admit that this new winter finds new ways to impress you every day. As I was shoveling 4.4" of powder at 9 degrees this morning, Im thinking lol...this is March! It is also an excellent indicator of how a fresh snow like this transforms the unsightly dirty glacial slab of snow into instant velvetty deep winter wonderland again. This morning it looked great out there. Very light snow falling, the snow piles are massive again, deep 12"+ snowcover everywhere. Deep, deep winter still. Looking at the calendar I would never believe this was the same month that we experienced in 2012 and there's still no end in sight for this. We could have snowcover for another 30 days. Jan 27th was epic bad February 5th was bad too. That was the worst morning rush of all season with a flimsy advisory...and we got 6"+ in a 5 hour period or so. To be fair that one was really unexpected in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
