josh_4184 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 GFS did show a nice synoptic system for Northern Michigan /UP and Wisc early next week but not buying that for a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Officially, DTW had a midnight high of 52*F yesterday. That may or may not be the high today. Remains to be seen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nokywx Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Loud & long clap of thunder during the night with a brief line of showers...maybe 4am or so. Took me a little by surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chitown Storm Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Picked up a surprise 0.75" of snow overnight. A nice fresh coating of snow makes it look and feel like winter. Too bad upper 30s tomorrow are gonna melt it before Christmas Eve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XfireLOW Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I had to look up Lake of the Woods on the map. Wasn't sure where that was. Welcome to the board XfireLOW. Open water in December is getting a little surreal here, I can only imagine what it's like up there. I believe Lake of the Woods finally froze up over the weekend with the cool (-1 really isn’t cold for December here) couple days. Who would expect a record late freeze up following last year, which was a record early freeze up. The weird thing I have noticed this year and also noticed December 2011 is how much a pain these above normal temps are with icy roads and sidewalks. The repeating freeze/thaw cycles usually don’t happen here with a regular basis Dec-Fec. Normally we get snow and that gets packed down, end of story until March. Not this year… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormtrackertf Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Just might top our midnight high, it's been 52 for the past two hours and I guess an intra-hour bump is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Doctor Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 How often is November snowier than the following December? Even here we had like a half inch of snow on the day of the big snowstorm up north and it certainly doesn't look like we'll be beating that in the next 10 days.

weatherbo Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 31 this afternoon. Took this pic coming back from my mailbox. After .5" of rain and upper 30's tomorrow, probably won't have anything left. Maybe a spit of backend snow Christmas...lolThe ironic thing is I've had snow cover all but 2 days since Thanksgiving.

Geos Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Nice snowy scene Bo. Wish it looked like that here. Another day of upper 30s with clouds and a damp feeling in the air. I'd rather have last Saturday's weather than this - at least it was sunny then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be in a micro-climate or something, haven't seen anything like that here or any of the other cities I have been in recently. It has been extremely cloudy, rainy and depressing.

Jonger Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I'd have to check, but I think this might have happened to us last year, here in CMH. The "Snowy" November is very deceptive. It was one day, one event. IMO... one 17 inch snow in a month, makes a less snowy month than 10 days of snow adding up to 12 inches. Although this December has been wall to wall sh-t, so in this case, I might have to agree that November has been snowier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Nice pic Bo^ Heavy overcast clung overhead all day today. Kept temps from moving much. Only managed to reach 36. Temp was about 35 when I posted that. Have since rose up to 39 for a new high for the day. Breezy southeasterlies pumping in warmer air. Even though it's a bit warmer out, it's still cold enough that it would seem hard to believe severe weather is possible in 18-20hrs if you didn't have today's technology.

Hoosier Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 Mentioned it in the severe thread but getting interested in a high wind threat near/just after frontal passage tomorrow evening. Various things look to be coming into place...mid level dryslot overspreading the area, strong CAA, rapid pressure rises. I would not be that surprised to see a window where winds hit high wind warning criteria around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breezy, with a south southeast wind 15 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 35 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible. Wednesday Night Showers and possibly a thunderstorm before 9pm, then showers likely between 9pm and midnight. Low around 37. Breezy, with a south wind 15 to 25 mph becoming west southwest after midnight. Winds could gust as high as 35 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%.

Sure looks like a period of advisory level winds at the least. Gone up another 3 degrees to 42. 7 degree rise the past 6 hours. WAA FTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chitown Storm Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Rain expected to change over to snow after noon. 1-3" today and up to another 1" tonight, higher amounts possible if the changeover occurs quicker. Looks like a white Christmas may be possible after all. Skeptical at this point since we're riding the 0C line once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
