michsnowfreak Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 Finally looking good for some synoptic snow here. Should see 2 inches or so Friday, more lake showers saturday, then a clipper Monday. Will be nice to lay down a blanket of snow onto the frozen ground as these daily mood flakes and dustings sublimate quickly in the cold dry air. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocATL Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 One heckuva synoptic rain event coming for next weekend per the GFS which means a reprieve from cold and dry. Honestly…that’s improvement.I would worry about ice to our south however with the low level cold from all the snow they’ve had. Unfortunately this system only clears the table for big cold into the plains so we punt the warm up and reset the pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chance of precipitation near 100 percent. Maybe, it's you.I’ve thought about this. I may have cursed Chicago. I’ll tell you though, when I was in ATL we had many 11th hour rug pulls. I’m concerned this will be an ice to rain event for them when it was looking like epic snow a few days ago. I think 1-2 inches is a big stretch for Friday anywhere north of I-80. Trace to 0.5 more likely. A virga flizzard. I’d go with the NAM on this. A better than nothing synoptic snow for Detroit, too.EDIT: it looks like I was looking at an older run of the NAM. The 12z looks better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-L-E-K Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 the lack of snow is compounded by the overall zzzzzs following what has been a benign couple of years wx wise, really just ready for things to get wild again, february tors, ice storm, morch, something 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 Definitely potential down the road. January finishes cold, no doubt. But will this be a month where below normal temps are accompanied by below normal snow, or people look at their monthly total on 1/31 and laugh at how cynical they were early in the month?
