bowtie` Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Yes, I am slant sticking. It is hard to hold on to a shutter release, a black background and a tape measure with just two hands. Looks like close to or a tick above 1.5" here this morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCNYILWX Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 2.4” from yesterday evening into the overnight hours. Quite a surprise. You're in the LOT CWA right? I can't see locations on Tapatalk.

Brian D Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 2.5" my final total, but co-op site on the shore got 4.5". Crazy, but there must of been a pocket of mod snow that clipped them, and rode the E side of town. No obs E of town, so can't be sure what happened. Next clipper later in the week with some cold air behind that for a quick cold snap. Big action staying S the next week or so with Chi town, and possibly the Motor City getting in on the action. Have fun guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Still waiting on datasets to report in for the Dec, but in the meantime, I went ahead and worked up my max/min avg map from various stations across the NC US. Haven't done this in quite a while, but with a near record/record Dec, thought it would be a good visual on how awesome a month it was. BTW, I use a dense rank method instead of standard ranking. Personally think it's a better ranking method for temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 The snowfall sat night into yesterday (0.8" both here and DTW) was more reminiscent of an april snowfall. A beautiful scenic snowfall during the morning melted during the afternoon under a damp, uncomfortable mid-30s chill. But all eyes are on the extended... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Another round of light snow coming my way. Lake band set up around Silver Bay to my NE. North Shore looking at 3-6"+. Next system looking to produce very well with the lake's help Wed pm-Thurs with 6-8"+ possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wed night-Fri should be much better with the clipper, and associated trough. With temps cooling down, especially in the mid levels, the lake should really help with totals around the head of the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
