vpbob21 Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Picked up almost 7" here. That takes my total for the season above 17". Last year I didn't reach 17" until February 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowstorms Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Went for a walk today and took some pictures. About 5" in my area. Decent storm and definitely gave it that perfect Christmas vibe. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Finished with 3.6" of powder. Bit of blowing and drifting and very cold, as temps hovered in the upper teens to low 20s the entire event. What a Christmas treat. Since it was a model fail until midday Christmas Eve it was unexpected by most. But it fell on the one day most wouldn't mind. As much as 4-7" was reported near Port Huron. While much less fell west of Eastern MI, it still was an unexpected white Christmas for most with between a dusting and 2". I am at 12.9" on the season. Its been an odd season in that the eastern and southern suburbs of Detroit have seen much more than the north and west suburbs. DTW saw 3.0", putting them at 12.2" on the season. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIstorm97 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I finished with 3.4” of snow. Was looking like it would be a whiff to the east until 18ish hours out. This was the second biggest event of the season, with 3.7” on the 16-17th being the largest. December now has 7.6” total accumulation imby, and the season total is 9.8”. Still have a few inches less than surrounding spots. This December, though, has definitely been better than the last two now. Hopefully can snag something as the month ends. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of the 7 level parking garage between Washington Ave and Center St in Royal Oak! My favorite local spot for storm/lightning pictures too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Season finished at 25.9" Detroit, 28.1" Chicago. 2012 Detroit hit 10"+ on Dec 29 and Chicago was at 0.8". Season finished at 47.7" Detroit, 30.1" Chicago. 2020 Detroit hit 10"+ on Dec 25 and Chicago was at 0.9". Season thru Dec 27 is 12.2" at Detroit, 0.9" Chicago.

Just curious, what option did you select on there to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it helps that I have a lot of knowledge in my head about what are the good and bad years in Detroit lol. So I started by looking at snowfall at Chicago through December 31st, Then went down to December 15th. looked at all the years they were under 1" and compared it to Detroit snowfall to see how many of those times Detroit was 10" or more. It's not foolproof but I think I got it lol. Does that make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
