A nice little taste of Winter at least today. Had a period of very light freezing rain and frizzle that put down a light glaze. Now it has changed to light snow and the ground has started to whiten up. Far cry from the 52/48 at this time yesterday lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I was watching that myself, North flow does nothing for my area unfortunately, what I would give for a 24 hour sustained NW flow with great moisture, high inversion heights, and 20 degree temps. Don't think its going to happen this winter, haven't even had 6-8 hours. I have picked up about an inch since the switched over a couple hours ago.

NWL snow drought for sure, but never count a major snowbelt out of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrdIowPitMsp Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Received some backend snow, maybe 0.5” after an all day rainer Thursday. It did help freshen/brighten up the dilapidated snowpack. Soooo....hopped in the car drove 5 hours north and find myself in Lutsen Minnesota which received 24” from the storm and 28” last 7 days. Winter wonderland to say the least.

Have not decided exactly where I'm going, but it will be somewhere in the UP, either your area or the keweenaw. Got 0.1" this morning, just are 2nd dusting of December after 9 days with measurable snow in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherbo Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Josh, If you've never been to the Keweenaw, I'd go there. A couple more pics since the sun has come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 After the atrocious performance for November, the CFS is on the way to having a pretty nice redemption month. The warm anomalies in the southwest will probably get chipped away in the next few days. And it even picked out the cold in Maine. In our region, it had a significant area wetter than average, which will verify with more on the way on the 31st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
