Power plant by Portage, Wisconsin is causing a nice band of snow downwind 

Yeah it's been flurries since like 11 here from that plume. We have actually accumulated a dusting from it, which is cool I guess. This happens a few times a winter here with the right conditions. Iirc a few years ago we had a sustained stretch with more favorable conditions and we actually got like an inch of just power plant effect snow.

Cold, with flurries for Thanksgiving. LES setting up across N WI, into the UP MI. Briefly made it into the upper 20's at midday today. Seasonably colder conditions the next couple days with highs in the mid 20's, and lows in the single digits to teens (nearer the Lake).

I finally got a sustained snow starting at 4pm; just a dusting to kick off this prolonged & significant LES event that will be the heaviest of its kind for late Nov-early Dec since I started. Wunderground is showing 6-10cm each day til Tues whereas TWN has 20cm+ for 3 days so I may be around 50cm come Mon. I'll believe it when I see it they haven't been able to hone amounts. I wonder if I'll get the same tired old band setups since 2015 or maybe something new and exciting will finally occur. Recently I get hosed or some stubborn band sets up just south of Goderich.

1-3" of snow across areas of N MN. N WI into Ironwood, MI has seen 1-8" so far. Sault Ste. Marie reporting 23" at a location there. Must've had a band set up over that particular location as other reports there are 8-12". Looks like 8-12" being reported across some locations across the UP MI in general.

First sub-20 degree high temperature today. 

First sub-30 degree low temperature at CVG, DAY, and Columbus today.

From NWS ILN yesterday:

Almost the end of the month, but sunshine was hard to come by this week and even the final third of the month. Only had some sun a few times during the final third of the month. Garbage.

TWN upped my Sat snow amounts even further to a wild 35-45 cm! That would only be 5cm less than the historic forecast of 50 for the Xmas Flizzard of 2022 that may have been for 1 day. I'm in ground zero within this region for LES the map shows me in the highest contour:

new precip since the LES started. I've seen local storm reports of 17"-22"  at Erie PA, and nearby. (not sure if there's any more updates)

22.6" officially yesterday, nearly matching the total snowfall of 24.8" from last winter. In fact, with the snowfall this morning, it's probably already gone over last winter's total. Unofficially, up to 30 inches in some places in northwest Pennsylvania yesterday.

Picked up about 24" so far since last night Gaylord APX broke their record 24 hr total already as well, Im about 7 Miles west of APX

Gaylord's 24.8" beat the calendar day (midnight-midnight) record of 17.0"(3/9/42). That's a pounding. Lots more to come over the next few days with LES, and a clipper zipping through next week with more LES after that.

Woke up to 1.5" of fresh snow from a steady I-94 band. Now the snow should be more squally today and tonight.

After this nice band overnight Thursday night, the weather turned more squally. After starting the day in the sweet spot, my area spent the rest of the day mostly with mood flakes while some wicked squalls caused icy freeway gridlock in other parts of the area JUST to my north. Such is LES in SE MI. Finished with 1.6" imby and 1.5" DTW.

The effects of the mild November were seen in a few ways. Despite staying below freezing all day roughly half the snow melted from underneath before freezing up. The other way was the icy roads. Snow melted on impact on the roads then quickly turned to ice. 

But November is ending today with a light snowcover, mood flakes, and temps that won't get out of the 20s. Welcome winter!

First time seeing a metric snowfall map for MI. Congrats on the LES pounding. But, did you not get buried during the Dec 2022 storm as well??

We got buried here with an epic snowfall around 60cm total (in 36 hours) by dawn this morning! This was insanity, it was also wet so shoveling was a feat for the strong. This is probably the most impressive snowfall I've seen since living here to go from nothing at 3pm Thurs to deep winter during a high-snow winter just throws one for a loop! I saw things I haven't seen previous like plows down my street halting mid-stride, getting stuck on a corner for 8 seconds wheels spinning in place, and taking far longer with more maneuvers. The band moved south then a new one came down then migrated up north giving us some sun by 11am and partly sunny though filtered in the aft. Roads are wet not snow covered - its a rather unique event as the highways weren't covered during daytime. Nothing was cancelled!

TWN's silly prediction of another 35-45cm was a huge bust, I thought closer to 10-15 but after 8am I doubt we got even 3cm. If we did get another dump it would've been bad, like Lucan ON thump on Dec 4-8 2010 bad (177 cm of snow fell during a 102-hour period for them).

First time Hanover is on a short list, finally.
