Geos Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 I was putting up Christmas lights during -RN spells, but now it's moderate rain with foggy patches as well. Actually the fog is dense in pockets near wooded areas. Ground is probably colder in those areas. Just need to hook all the lights together with extension cords. Coming up on 0.40" of rain for this event so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 With 3.7" of snow in November, Detroit is at 81.9" on the calendar year. This ties with 1881 for 2nd snowiest calendar year on record, just 0.7" away from the record of 82.6" set just in 2008. Obviously barring an unforeseen absence of winter, that record just set a few years ago looks to be broken again. Oh the snowy times we are in 5 snowiest calendar years for Detroit 1.) 82.6" - 2008 2.) 81.9" - 1881 2.) 81.9" - 2014 thru Nov 23 4.) 75.3" - 1974 4.) 75.3" - 2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know but still...We just were snowed in our homes for 5 days shoveling 8 hours+ per day with travel bans. Now we want to watch our team play for free 4-5 hours away and we have to pay $125 bucks for free tickets. Brutal! I blame the NFL for this though, terrible planning.

Yeah last winter was just incredible. 83.1" on the year imby, which is two average years worth (well, longterm average..the last 12 years are rewriting whats average).

Well, you folks in Buffalo can always just take the loss for this game (and not show up) if you don't appreciate the city of Detroit's and the Ford family's generosity...

michsnowfreak Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Total rainfall Sat-Mon here was 1.17". A majority of that was Sunday night, and 0.05" of it was freezing rain (early Sat morning). This put a dent in our dry November, we are now at 1.63" on the month with 3.8" snowfall. Flurries are flying this morning under gray skies and a brisk wind = November. While nothing will stick, this will be the 9th day this season snow has fallen.

cyclone77 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Snow cover didn't budge today. Still a solid 2" glacier. Already down to 16. Point has 15, and then rising as clouds move in. Clouds are still west of I-35 though, so I think we go way lower than 15 this evening with this fresh snow and calm winds. EDIT: Pretty sweet satellite today showing the fresh snow cover. You can see where the deformation zone developed and dumped snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
