Stebo Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I gotta admit, these are some pretty big dendrites coming down, probably the biggest of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Picked up a little over 1/2" so far, which will probably be the total. Have been flipping back and forth between precip types/rates since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smoof Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Just measured 3" here, looks like another inch or so to come yet. The trees look awesome, best cement coating in a quite a while, will make for some great pics when the sun comes up in a couple hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 All rain here, 36. the orientation of the rain/snow line is funky (raining in Farmington Hills but snowing in Eastpointe) but nothing susprises me with spring. (this is almost like a much lesser, spring version of Feb 20, 2011 when Detroit was blasted with 9-11" snow and Harry got that ice stom). Being as though I will be going to work and it will all melt this afternoon, i wouldnt have really gotten to enjoy it, but it would have been nice to add to the season total so we could hit 50". Already above normal for the 7th of the last 8 winters, but there was so much deep snow this winter its like it deserves to hit 50" However, we do have a few more snow chances this week it appears. DTX already addressing Friday (unusual for them to mention something like that this far off, this time of year), and now the euro and GFS want to give more snow Easter Sunday THE OTHER IMPORTANT MATTER TO HIGHLIGHT IN THIS PACKAGE IS THEPOTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL FRIDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING. MODELSSOLUTIONS ARE SHOWING STRONG DYNAMIC FORCING STRIPING ACROSS THESTATE IN RESPONSE TO A TRAILING ZONAL UPPER LEVEL JETLET PUSHINGTHROUGH IN A FAVORABLE LOCATION. STRONG LEFT EXIT REGION DYNAMICSARE PROGGED FOR THE REGION ALONG WITH A VERY STRONG BAROCLINIC ZONEIMMEDIATELY TO THE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE STATE. DEFINITELYINTERESTING. FOR NOW MID TO HIGH CHANCE POPS REMAINS ADEQUATE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitelakeroy Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Complete fail here. Rain and slush. Oh well. Time for this winter to end! I am so ready for warmth. Time for my favorite weather event :Thunderstorms!!! Being the absolute IMBYer with Thunderstorms that means it is time for me to sign off until next winter. While tracking major snowstorm systems is fun I have no joy tracking thunderstorms on radar hitting somewhere else. If the thunderstorms is not IMBY or I can't chase it then I don't enjoy tracking it at all which I have found doesn't bode well in this forum!!!! Plus during warmer weather I am not online much all compared to winter. Thanks for putting up with me during this pretty much boring winter. I'll be back once the the snow begins to fall next fall/winter. Take care all! It's been real and it's been fun. Just can't say this winter was really fun. God Bless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slow poke Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 4.5"-5.0" here measured 100 different spots. Same at my place when I left this morning at 5:00 and it was still snowing pretty hard. Enough to close a few schools out by us even. Only about a inch down here near 696. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 Winter wonderland outside. Looks like about 2" down and coming down nicely. Not the huge flakes being described of earlier, but still moderate snow. Very surprised...model trends yesterday looked like a whiff to the south.

Euro dropping 3"+ across S On come Fri night/Sat morning. If timing stays favourable and the system can wrap up enough CCB moisture we could be in for some april snow.

stormtrackertf Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Didn't get any accumulation here south of downtown, but driving into downtown I noticed all the cars coming from the north were plastered in snow, from the south...just wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Howell missed the whole thing... about 10 miles north of me got several inches. I really don't care after spending the last 5 days in the Ontario snowbelt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roardog Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 There was about 7- 8 inches here. It was crazy with cars getting stuck in the middle of the roads since they weren't plowed. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 Hopefully it doesn't snow. Not a huge fan of April snow, but it's early on in the month, and it'd get us closer to our normal seasonal snowfall total (so it's "purpose" snow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Pretty pics from central MI. The storm was further north than last minute modeling. I picked up only 0.21" of cold rain here, no snow, and well below model qpf. the last two winters have been loaded, and I mean LOADED, with picture opportunities. Absolutely gorgeous scenes, including many snowfalls where the conifers were loaded thick with powder. However, one thing lacking has been a thick, flocking, heavy wet snowfall. We had two wet snowfalls flock to the trees this winter (Nov 16 & Jan 29), both around an inch or so of snow. If I recall, the same was seen last year. I believe the last thick flocking wet snows (meaning several+ inches) here was March 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
