My boys asked me to buy one but nothing wrong with some elbow grease. On another note do I spy a storm just after Valentine’s Day? I know it’s way way out but interesting nonetheless I am expecting (maybe more just hoping) the pattern to start getting stormy again. Since October precip has been shut down.

Literally 8+ on a 1500 mile stretch from maine to oklahoma and then you got the circle of nothingness. Hard to believe but thats how we roll. DTW had 9.2". So contrary to what you said yesterday, this was an 8+ storm for DTW. Macomb county was the screwzone locally on that screenshot, but it doesn't show up here.

Definitely looks like It turned into a widespread big storm without the epic numbers. Outside of that blob of 15 to 17" in Indiana, Just a few small areas of 12 plus. It's incredible to think of how high some of those laughable kuchera numbers were for such a widespread area. I honestly don't remember that even in some bigger storms (Feb 2011, Jan 2014, Feb 2015) that panned out with bigger numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 7 at home and 9.2 at work. It wasn't that great of a storm, especially knowing what hit all around us. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Storm totals were 10-18" across WNY. Here is a weenie drift in my backyard, 6 foot fence. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueWaves Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 11 hours ago, michsnowfreak said: I'm the same. Feel like it's 2 events, but have to stay consistent. If everyone else is considering it storm total, so should we. A storm with a brief lull. Both DTW (9.2") and YYZ (6.2") made out better than feared after a bust of huge totals was imminent. 11 hours ago, Lightning said: I agree as there was a well defined lull and separation between the waves. If the those NAM and RGEM runs that showed non-Stop precip would have happened, then it would be one storm IMO. But it is all a mute point as the NWS is who provides definition which is fine by me. In the end it doesn't matter because there is great snow on the ground Hourly Obs would indicate a fairly brief intermission from the snows of wave #1 and the 2nd wave of only 4 hrs. That's actually not much of a lull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frog Town Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 13" officially at Toledo Express Airport. After compaction though, I only measured about 10" as the first 5" of concrete compacted down to 2" under it's own weight. Normally this would be a win, but after what was forecasted and watching the rare overlapping phenomenon slip through my fingers, I was disappointed. My kids are in heaven though, so basically I'm an old 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe 10.2", Carleton 10.0", Wyandotte 9.3", DTW 9.2". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Here are my long loops of the radar for this storm and the GFS surface/precip images. It took me 83 hours of saving radar images for this. Of course, did use the archive feature, but I really did take 4 days of occasional saving of data. http://www.greatlakes.salsite.com/Feb_1_to_4_2022_radar_loop1.html http://www.greatlakes.salsite.com/Feb_1_to_4_2022_GFS_surface_loop1.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually your late call ended up pretty close. As has been said multiple times....it was an 8-10" storm for the southern burbs, 9.2" officially for Detroit (DTW) and while north detroit city (your old stomping grounds?) northeast to macomb were the SE MI low spot, they still had 6-7. In the end another 6-10 storm area wide. Lol. Forecast 3-6, get 6-10, forecast 6-10, get 6-10, forecast 10-16, get 6-10. How much sleet did you get?

Imagine if it turned over there even 3 hours earlier, could’ve definitely been hitting that upper boundary of the forecast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually were within the bullseye in the Metroplex. There was still plenty of patches left today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
