TugHillMatt Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Nice, guys! Picked up about 4 to 6 inches around here Sunday, with more through Tuesday. GRR is talking maybe another SW flow event Wednesday morning. I hope so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Environment Canada forecast has us down for 6-9" of LES in the next 24 hrs. Would be the biggest snowfall of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Environment Canada forecast has us down for 6-9" of LES in the next 24 hrs. Would be the biggest snowfall of the season. Should be good inland penetration with this event. 4km NAM suggests that even a couple of inches possible imby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toronto4 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Should be good inland penetration with this event. 4km NAM suggests that even a couple of inches possible imby. Pretty healthy band currently affecting the downtown Toronto core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh_4184 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Picked up another 4+ last night, could see another 3-6 today into late evening. Looking pretty good up here right now would have never thought that about 3 weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrisale Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Heaviest snow off the season with a Lake Huron band that passed through about an hour ago. Picked almost an inch and half in about 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Picked up 2 feet the last 2 weeks here. The heaviest stuff was south of here with totals of 4-6'+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Had about 3/4" this morning from that Huron band. Drifting back north but looks lamer. Doubt I get more than a dusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonger Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Central/Southeastern Michigan brings it down. Overall New York has a higher average than Michigan does. The UP is such a monster for any state EOTM to compete with. It also has the highest averages and lower temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 The UP is such a monster for any state EOTM to compete with. It also has the highest averages and lower temps. I get what you are saying. The amount of square ft. that averages over 200" a year and persistent cold is unmatched anywhere EOTR. But some of the highest mountains east of the Rockies are in New York. The Adirondacks/Catskills/Alleghany mountains range from 2- to almost 5500' in elevation. The highest peak in Michigan is 1978' while Mount Mercy is 5343'. The Catskills also range from 2-4500'. The northern Adirondacks are at the same latitude as the UP. I remember being on top of Whiteface mountain in Late August and seeing snowflakes. The highest totals for snow in the UP are beaten by the highest yearly totals in the Tug. It's close but the Tug wins. Also if you compare the data to Southern tier in WNY they average 200-250" of snow a year which would be higher than the Lower Peninsula of Michigan. You mentioned Michigan as being the snowiest state, it would be much closer if central/southeastern Michigan wasn't included as most of New York has much higher yearly snow totals than those locations due to Ontario and also Nor'Earsters which result in a more favorable synoptic location. I have the data-set somewhere from all the Co-op stations/Cocarahs locations to prove this. But either way Michigan/New York are the snowiest places east of the Rockies!

Is there any Co-Op/Cocarahs program in Ontario? I would love to find out the totals under that band that barely moved all day. It had to be putting down 2-3" per hour.

Most of the UP is so remote there's no real way to determine exact snowfall. The biggest snow belts up here aren't even inhabited. I think a 1/3 of the UP's population is probably in the city's of Marq, Houghton, and the Soo. I'd probably live in the Adirondacks tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh_4184 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Looks like Munising and point east towards Grand Marais were the big winners in Michigan maybe a couple spots in the Keweenaw with over 36"+ I ended up with about 18" or so, still lightly snowing picked up another 2 inches last night as well. Around 20-24" deep around my yard. Could of been a little better but didn't get as much due to veering winds, the SSW then NNW wind was more prevelant then expected. Still looks like winter an this weekend riding should be pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
