Brian D Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Looks like a general 1-3" around the head of the lake with 6-8" being reported on the Iron Range W/NW of me. Still snowing that way too, but it's a narrow band. Duluth picked up 3.3", so they are within an inch of beating the snow season record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrdIowPitMsp Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Drove up to Sandstone MN to see a friend today. Once you got out of the inner metro there was significantly more accumulation. UHI doing it’s thing. Duluth is 0.4” away from breaking the all time record. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Here is a cross-section of our cold front today, and the section is across the I-80 corridor. You can see the quick dropoff of the 0 degree C isotherm from over 700mb (east, Ohio, Pennsylvania) to around 950mb (west, Iowa). The polar jet stream is directly over the main section of cooling temperatures at the low levels. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrdIowPitMsp Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 0.6” of official accumulation yesterday in Minneapolis. Season total stands at 90.3” Away from the UHI the suburbs did better with the NWS office in Chanhassen pulling in 2.9” and surpassing 100” on the season for the first time ever. Up to 101.8” now. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Winters chill and snowflakes in the air. While it won't accumulate like the last 3 years, this is the 4th consecutive year (and 5 of the past 6 years) snow has been flying in the April 17-20 time frame. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Up to 8 inches fell in northeast Iowa. As models predicted, a corridor just east to northeast of La Crosse got 15-20 inches. I only received a couple tenths on sw edge of the precip shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s going to be cold it mind as well snow imo. Glad it wasn’t all a cold white rain this morning in south Rockwood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowtie` Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Even some white flakes mixed in with the drizzle and brief showers this far south. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it wasn’t all a cold white rain this morning in south Rockwood I agree. With stuff starting to bloom my allergies have been terrible this week. Spring is my least favorite season. If it's cold let it snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 This band of snow has formed on the south side of the low. Because it has to be 50 degrees colder than Saturday, of course. and oh, by the way, the LaCrosse WI area got 9-22" (looks like 9"-13" in the city area) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Not hard to see where the banding set up with this system. There was a very narrow band that set up just west of me that put down 8" across the Iron Range. Pretty cool. More snow later this week my way with another 3-6" possible. Duluth record going to broken easy, and just maybe TH 7NW. @OrdlowPitMsp still may have a little powder at Lutsen next weekend if that's still on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you could fly home whenever nyc gets a noreaster. It would be the best of both worlds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
