cyclone77 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Temp has warmed all the way up to 41. Pretty windy out there. Sunset from earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambana Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 January will finish with 1.7" of snowfall, the eighth least snowiest January in 129 years. Temp was 41 degrees on my way to work this morning. Happy for those folks who cashed in on the clipper last night. I have no snow in my forecast the next 7 days, the time to establish a deep true winter landscape is fading by the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherbo Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Great pic, Cyclone! 40" of snow imby this month...nearly 20" below for my area. Chance for a few inches yet before the new month arrives. Temp is running +5. The 10 day snowless thaw really killed the stats for this month. 8-10" the next 2 days.

When I was out riding Sunday, I took my snow ruler to do some measuring for MQT in remote areas and measured 16-25" in the Huron's. This time two years ago I had a depth of 38". Today's depth in my front yard... peak this winter was 30" Backyard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 With the 16-day thaw from hell, its hard to believe, but a few whiteout snow squalls the first week of the month, a 3-inch snow to welcome the thaw from hell, a few whiteout squalls the last week of the month, and a 4.3-inch snowfall the last day of the month, and boom, Detroit finishes January with 11.7" of snow. This is just 0.8" below the 30-yr normal, however it is 0.8" ABOVE the longterm normal. My backyard did even better at 13.1". Also unusual to see such a difference between here and chicago. It will end up likely tying for the 12th warmest Jan on record though, not to mention one of the cloudiest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're not the kind of guy to "rub it in", but when Detroit, (not typically known as the snow town of the sub), has become this freakish snow-island in the midst of a sub forum where most of us are on the cusp of breaking futility records, your snow reports and pictures are like someone eating a death by chocolate fudge cake and describing every bite in front of a group of Ethiopian kids at a UN camp. If mother nature has any scale of justice and if it's true that climo always wins in the end.... Detroit might be in for some Columbus-esque winters very soon. just mess'n with ya.... If anyone in this sub appreciates snow more than you, I haven't found him. Pics are awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think bo may be in the running for appreciating snow the most right up there with me, but who knows for sure. I'm really not sure what is going on here but it's crazy. I keep thinking something has got to give for climo to even out. Not counting this winter, the previous 14 winters detroit is nearly a foot above the long term normal, and since 2007-08 we are running nearly 16" above the longterm normal. This includes the clunker of 2011-12. It's freaky not only from a stat perspective but from a memory one. It is like I live in a completely different climate then the one I grew up in during the 1990s. If i didn't know all the stats I knew and I had to go by memory, I would be the complete opposite of grandpa saying winters aren't what they used to be. I feel we are far enough north and protected enough by the Lakes that a clunker Columbus type winter is simply out of the realm of possibility, but I could easily see us getting what would be an average Columbus winter, as its happened before, most recently 2011-12. I know it was a long time ago, but in 1995-96 Detroit truly was the screw zone of the midwest that winter (along with chicago). Everything good went north or south.

Hit 43 here today. Was pretty windy, so it actually didn't feel quite as nice as it sounds. The Jan snow total of 0.4" at MLI still wasn't bad enough to finish as the least snowy on record. Only attained 3rd least snowy status. The top two must have been like T amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still over 2 feet below normal over here. Growing tired of all the heavy snow bands hitting central and southern Michigan... Kalamazoo to Detroit has been cashing in winter after winter lately.

cyclone77 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Yep, good riddance to Jan '17. I thought Dec '15 was bad, this month beat even that abysmal excuse for a met winter month lol. Really hope we never see another met winter month as bad as this Jan, and Dec '15 again, but you never know. Hopefully many years from now.

Rainfall: 2.32" (0.98") Mean temperature: -1.6C (-6.0) - more than 4 degrees above normal. What a garbage month, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you get that stat? I'm curious as to how much YXU got because it felt like even less than that :c At least it's finally clear out.

ConfusedKitten Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 All in all YXU finished with around 15" of snow and almost 2.5" of rain compared to average snowfall of 19.4" and average rainfall of 1.3". Mean temp was 28.4, 6.5 degrees above average, although daily highs were a bit closer to average. The cold stretch and snowsqualls early on padded the stats, but the second half of this January was just abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambana Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 January finished +7.4 degrees above normal. Definitely a roller coaster month. -3 was the coldest reading, and 64 was the highest reached on 1/21 breaking the old record of 62 in 1906. February needs to post a -7 temp departure to average out the winter. Can already say that's not happening. Oh wait JB says February 2007, 2013, 2015 are his analogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
