michsnowfreak Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I'm talking about Met winter and met winter only. DJF period. January has been ok. Not great, but far from the worst. December...the worst. February is still the unknown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambana Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Has anyone used "Weather Geek Pro 2" for iOS? It's currently 2.99$ in the App Store, is it any good? It has access to GFS, GEFS, NAEFS, ECMWF models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KokomoWX Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Thread could get a workout if the early Feb storm goes too far north for most here. A miss north could make a grown man cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 The storm was one of the greatest November snowstorms on record (not to mention one of the most scenic Ive ever seen). Just because it was a month before the solstice doesnt mean it shouldnt count. This January has definitely been a michsnowfreak type of month. It hasn't been a torch, most of the days have been overcast, there has been snow on the ground most of the days (although not deep or uniform) and snowflakes have been in the air most of the time.

Chitown Storm Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Has anyone used "Weather Geek Pro 2" for iOS? It's currently 2.99$ in the App Store, is it any good? It has access to GFS, GEFS, NAEFS, ECMWF models. I have not, but looking at in the App Store I bet full access to those models requires additional in-app purchases.

TugHillMatt Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 This winter has been craptastic. Record warmth in December and weakening systems and/or systems pulling in warm air for rain through January...the only thing that has saved Michiganders the past two weeks were the Great Lakes...

IWXwx Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Dusting off the big dog photo. Avatar until we finally score a big dog. Lol. I was just getting started on the boards when you originally posted it, but heard the story. I remember you posting it again a few years ago (on Eastern?). I can't help but chuckle when I see it just thinking about how DT reacted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonger Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Haha DC was a low point. My random November storm slightly topped there epic blizzard. I sent a text to a friend of mine and said WV would jackpot with 4 feet, 2 days before the storm hit. At least some ski resorts got hit and it wasn't a complete waste.

BuffaloWeather Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Found this really interesting. Deepest snow depth by state. http://www.weather.com/sports-recreation/ski/news/deepest-snow-50-states-record-snow-cover-20130220 Michigan- 117" Lake-effect snow routinely buries northern Michigan. On the Keweenaw Peninsula, Eagle Harbor sat under 117 inches of snow from Jan. 27-31, 1948. New York- Whiteface Mountain, in the Adirondacks, piled up 119 inches of snow by April 20, 1943. Wisconsin- Spring did not come early for northern Wisconsin in 1933. A record 83 inches of snow was on the ground at the Flambeau Reservoir on April 6 that year. Illinois- Gebhard Woods State Park, on the Illinois River near Morris, had 41 inches of snow cover on Jan. 31, 1979. Indiana/Ohio- Tied at 47" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mogget Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Oh man, that Big Dog thing. It was back on Eastern and I laugh thinking about it. I wonder if anybody has it archived? And while I'm here I'd like to register a teeny point with any listening deities that I have not had a good storm recently but if I do get one I shall be extra good all summer.

IAD is probably the most accurate measurement (they usually get more anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 The November snowstorm was nothing more than some bonus snow. From then up to this point it has sucked and it's hard to turd polish it, DJF so far has been terrible for snow. Discounting November, I'm at less than 10 inches on the season.

I'm happy for the northern storm pattern over the next week. Ontario trails are still a mess up there, I'm planning on heading up to SSM Ontario on the 12th through 15th period... and perhaps the next two book-ended weekends following that. I need some snow in that area. It's similar to the Big Bay route near you, lots of rock sticking out of the trail... Oh, my cousin blew out his front A-Arms on a lame creek flowing over the trail in that area! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakeEffectOH Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 ...Just looking at the Euro. Nice storm on the horizon. Betcha It's a CHI-DTW special and a cold hard rain for most of Ohio. Maybe I should move to Chicago or Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
