michsnowfreak Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Detroit made it down to 10ﾟ this morning, easily the coldest temperature of the Winter so far. The sun is shining brightly, after being missing an action for who knows how long, and the snow glistened beautifully. Never can get that glitter fully captured in a picture. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 The Cedar Rapids airport officially hit -12º this morning, but here in town only -3º. Most stations in the area were several degrees higher than the CR airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Good call by DVN with the temps last night/this morning. Figured we'd easily dip below -10, as we were already -1 at a bit past 5pm. Temps languished much of the night. Hit -8 around midnight and bounced up from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Another 3-6" hit coming in with 6-8"+ slated for further up the shore. I'm thinking a lake streamer could develop during the night tomorrow night, and really jack up the totals. They are hard to predict my way, and usually surprise the forecasters when they hit. This could be one of those times. As low pressure moves through, a lingering trough behind helps keep the 850's at an ENE trajectory, even with a N surface wind. Seen it many times. A band develops N of me and rides down the shore towards Duluth dumping a lot of snow together with (and after) the synoptic stuff. When the trough weakens enough (along with the 850's), and the N winds get stronger, it will nail the south shore region hard (Ashland, Ironwood region). In just a few hours, large amounts of snow come down off the big lake. We'll see if this happens. It doesn't always, but overnight/early a.m always seems the best for this to happen around here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But riding the " dry" idea is definitely the safe bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also seasonal/AGW trends die hard If the AGW trend has been dry in the Midwest, I’d hate to see what wet is considering all the precip that seems to fall each year. A hot and dry year like 2012 feels impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 A lake band is setting up just south of me. It may widen a bit with another looking to build just N of me. Hopefully get under one for a while. That will bring the snow totals up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheeselandSkies Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Temps look to be on a roller coaster for the foreseeable future in our forecast from MKX. Every day of low 30s is immediately followed by a day of teens or single digits with lows below 0. @madwx Edit: @Chicago Storm alluded to it in the short/medium range discussion thread, as well.
