(This should happen tomorrow.) Makes me wonder if it could even be deeper if it wasn't for that other low Fuji'ing around. I bet that flights from Miami to London flights are taking record less time with that 240 mph jet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Picked up 0.1" of snow last night. 30.6" on the season here, 30.8" at DTW. Headed north to the UP today! There will be snow on the ground the entire way for the trip up (trip home wed will prob be just piles from flint south). Accumulating snow expected up there Monday night 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep same here. I would be fine being done with snow for the rest of the season, wouldn’t want to stat pad what has been a miserable winter for most. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanDe680 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 If it weren’t for the snow cover today, we would have hit 50. Great sun today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 HRRR builds enough cape (200-400J/kg) to fire off some thunderstorms over the east half of IA into western IL tomorrow afternoon/eve. Temps are about 10 degrees warmer than other guidance shows, so chances of that happening are very low. If the HRRR were somehow right there would actually be a low-end risk for severe out in that area given decent shear profiles. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could have had slightly better WAA today ahead of the front this could have been a nice little thunder event at least. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Enjoying TON of snow in Munising, on the Lake Superior shoreline. But this is actually quite a mild Winter up here for them as well, as I always say it's all relative lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when Madison was the snow magnet in 2006-2008. Weve eclipsed 13" several times since 2011, though not this year (peak 9"). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwx Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Here’s the max depth of the past 13 or so winters. Can really see the hot streak we had from 2007-2011 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoboy645 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Huh, I am a bit surprised by that. Then again I have gotten more snow up here a few times that may have boosted my depth. Or I am really bad at estimating snow depth which is probably the case . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 madwx's post piqued my interest in the deepest seasonal depths here. I began keeping CoCoRaHS measurements in 2006 in Huntington. Note: They are rounded to the nearest one half inch and depth readings are taken at 7 AM, so maybe not exact, but close enough for horseshoes and hand grenades. This winter seems to be mirroring 2015-'16 for suckage. In fact, it has been suckage for snow depth ever since then when you consider that we have had only 2 days when there was 6" or more on the ground. (6" on 2/6/18 and 7" on 1/20/19. Depths dropped under 6" on the following days). Two days in 5 years!! Of course we can't throw 2014-'15 under the same bus because I'm sure you all remember that winter. Here, we had 57 days with at least an inch of snow on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherbo Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 -5 out tonight but feels colder for some reason. Cleared the drive today, looks like 7" or so of snow fell the past couple days...winter kinda showing it's age a little. Days def feel brighter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrdIowPitMsp Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Low of -9F and 9” snow-depth. Unfortunately snowpack will take a hit this weekend. Starting to notice the sun angle doing work even on these bitterly cold days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIstorm97 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I think I need to head up into the UP. Hit up Tahquamenon, Pictured Rocks lakeshore, some falls near Munising, maybe a lighthouse or two, and more. That snowpack is too good, considering there’s been none downstate.

MIstorm97 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I'm doing even better than DTW , I just want to see some deep snowpack again. That's what has been missing downstate this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
