Chicago Storm Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Had several bursts of SN to + SN today, with some graupel as well. Each of which produced a dusting, which quickly melted. Heaviest and longest burst was with the front a few hours ago. Dusting of snow from it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 The heavy snow band went south and slammed Toledo with their biggest snow of the season. Snow fell for several hours last evening but slushed up then froze overnight into basically black ice. Complete fail of the models yet again. Then this morning a lake band slammed in and dropped 1.1" in an hour or so imby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Incredible scene out there this morning! I'm hoping we can squeeze out 6" from this. That's impressive! Made it down to 20° here this morning.

Chambana Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 This late season tally really puts into perspective just how incredible some of these futility records throughout the sub really are. With the window of opportunity for snowfall stretching from November-April, just goes to show, how much Of a clunker some of these winters really were. Especially 1930s-40s.

Geos Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 High of only 32° here today - with sun! If it would have clouded up it probably would have stayed in the 20s. -21° from normal. I'm just above last seasons snowfall now. 105% of normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The early start and late end to winter sabotaged my predictions of ridiculously low snowfall totals throughout the sub. Throw out November and April and it really was a clunker.

Geos Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 This was a typical strong el Niño winter for the most part. Wintry at the beginning and end, with not a lot in between to show for it. I will say one thing there was more days that reached below zero than in 97-98. Giving this winter a B- grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, the last two winters kind of spoiled us in regards to massive snowfall and incredible cold. Maybe next year we will have a big blizzard.

With the window of opportunity for snowfall stretching from November-April, just goes to show, how much Of a clunker some of these winters really were. Especially 1930s-40s.Good post. There were some crazy clunkers in those decades. Actually, we had several clunkers stretching well into the 1950s-60s as well. Thats why when an area has a slow start to winter and futility records are being discussed in January I just roll my eyes. Anything can happen, but it is realistic to expect measurable snow, especially north of I80, from Nov to Apr with a slight chance in Oct and a very outside shot even in May. In addition to the known clunkers, there are many winters which just appear to be in the "crummy-but-not-clunker-or-futility" camp but that is only because of a spring or fall snowfall. Rather than diving into stats or discussing "nuisance" "big dog" etc, a very easy blanket statement would be to say overall, winters seem more active than they used to be. This winter from an active winter weather perspective was not bad in any month except Dec here. Its lack of sustained cold/snowcover is what leaves a bad taste in a winter lovers mouth, but Im actually surprised how decently active it was for a strong Nino. Going into the season with a super nino and juiced jet, I would have expected maybe a few bigger storms but way less actual storm systems than we had.

michsnowfreak Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 A bit of snow on the way this morning, will it be the last of the season? We have missed out on the impressive snowfall amounts for April, but it has seemed to be snowing nearly constantly the first third of the month.
