hawkeye_wx Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 We've lost another 2" from the snow pack over the last six hours, so my backyard is down to 5". We're sitting at 46F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're sitting at 46F. Yep we'll both be looking at bare grass by tomorrow afternoon. What a remarkable turnaround. On Thursday at work I mentioned that we were over 60 degrees colder than freezing. Crazy to see the snow melt like this after that long period of extreme cold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambana Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Paducah, KY is sitting at a balmy 70 degrees which has tied their record from 1992. Tomorrow definitely has the potential to break our record tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrdIowPitMsp Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Temperatures are beginning to fall, we are at 35F here with dense fog all day under the retreating snowpack. Paved surfaces (especially sidewalks) have stayed below freezing and have an “hoar frost” type frost on them. Pretty slick out there. Under a WWA for freezing rain tonight. Looks like around 0.1” but temperatures are retreating faster then antipated so might end up with more of a glaze then people realize leading to a terrible commute tomorrow.

cyclone77 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 50 degrees at midnight at MLI. We basically went from one extreme to the other in just a few days time. No doubt in my mind we'd be seeing 60s with this air mass if we didn't have 15-20" of snow to melt off first. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrdIowPitMsp Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 NWS seems pretty bullish on snow chances this week. Could end up with a respectable snowpack if this comes to fruition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherbo Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 About as bad an ice storm as I've ever seen, and an extremely rare event for the UP. I can literally hear crashes and breaks in the woods every so often. The added wind and snow later will spell disaster. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 My forecast point has been increased to 10ºC now (up from 4 and recently 8) for this afternoon. That was the plan. I even had the sun brake out for a moment a hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Looks like about 5-6" of snow left after the great melt-off. Cold front is now passing through, so should retain the majority of this for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the snow is pretty much melted aside from a few drifts and bigger piles. Looks like we will see freezing rain warnings for Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mississaugasnow Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 The long range looks like a lot of cutters aiming at Northern MI and Northern Ontario. Though where I lose out, you guys in the upper midwest might be buried under snow soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw DVN went from 12 to 1". How much did you have pre melt? We went from 5" to 0 (just piles). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 My snow pack is down to 2" in my backyard, but any walking paths are grass and the open field near my yard is mostly grass. For days, models had a rain event here late weekend, but we ended up getting only 0.01". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why, but they always seem way lower than surrounding locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrdIowPitMsp Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 30F with freezing drizzle when I left for work, now 13F with flurries. Pretty drastic change. Snow depth went from ~5” to 2” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume anyone who started the thaw under 9 or 10" has grass now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IllinoisWedges Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Went from around 10" to just piles in parking lots these last couple days. Cold front coming through now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackstraw Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I understand the disappointment about loss of snow pack, but I'm schooled at this lol. This is the 3rd time this year it's gone around here. The models ain't lookin good for us either. Still have 4-6 weeks of potential so I'll glass half full it for a bit, then I'm done. This freakin mudfest sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just not a snowpack winter. And to think i was worried the east coast would get all the fun lol. I was expecting some historic east coast winter and hoped we would get fringed enough for a cold dry snowpack...instead they are snowless and the western midwest is the place to be. No doubt more snowfalls are in our future...but a sustained winter it aint. Further crazy that the last week of January (already the coldest week of the year on average) was the 2nd coldest on record and now its muddy out!
