Snowstorms Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 We've now gone 51 days (since Jan 1) below 41F. The longest stretch since 1985. Although this cold hasn't been extreme, its been seasonably cold since January which is something we haven't seen in a long time so I am grateful for that. YYZ will likely finish DJF right on average. This stretch is almost as remarkable as the stretch from Jan 25 to March 2, 2015 where Toronto went 37 days below freezing in a row. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Today's -4 here was our 7th subzero day of the month. Had 6 days in January, so 13 total for the season. Coldest was -14 back in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Had a great time up north. Snow deep everywhere, but especially in Paradise where it was 3 feet deep 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Still have a nice snowpack in SE MI. My season to date snowfall sits at 26.9" with 26.0" at DTW. Have definitely made the most out of the snowfall in terms of days with snow on the ground. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They "only" had 80" last winter and expect to crack 300" this winter. They are smack dab in one of the biggest Lake Superior snowbelts and it's their livelihood.

Chinook Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 some stats for recent days 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 This morning's Euro has near 60º here next Friday. That will feel great. Our last couple inches of snow should be melted off pretty quickly over the coming days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I was looking at some info from Minnesota this week. On the 18th, Rochester had a high of 3, low of -19 (tied a record low.) That's pretty nasty when a place in Minnesota ties a record low in the winter. Some of the records at this time of year are -22 and lower, though. Rochester was 79 degrees just before Halloween.

michsnowfreak Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Went sledding yesterday, this time taking my 7 year old nephew to a bigger hill. Everyone had a blast. Not ready for winter to release its grip yet. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Temps overachieving again as the last of the snow melts away. Should make a run at 50 today, and it now looks like 60 is attainable both tomorrow and Tuesday. Probably in the 60s on Friday. So long POS winter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwx Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Should nab 40 today. Snow cover really wasn’t taking much of a dent but will get demolished in the next few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Made it to 50 here, MLI hit 51. DVN has 52 in the point for tomorrow and Tue. Will bust low pretty badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mississaugasnow Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I think my snowpack holds on but will be down to 3-5" by the end of the week. Looking forward to the mid 40s tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwx Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Dipped down to 30 just after sunset. But then WAA kicked in and we’ve been hovering around 40 since. Melting well underway now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvck Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Absolutely incredible day in store here, 10am and it's already up to 42 which feels like the 50s after the past few weeks. W/ the sunny skies and a nice SW breeze I'm thinking we top 50. Could not be more excited 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call. MLI is up to 60F. As an aside, it's crazy to me how fast that February monthly record high maximum has jumped in recent years. The long-standing record was 73F from 2/15/1921. In 2017, it tied this value 3 times and beat it once (74F, on 2/19/2017). Last year, it reached 76F on February 26, and an absolutely insane 79F on February 27. You have to think the first 80F February reading is right around the corner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowstorms Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Temps really overachieving today. Those SW winds are incredibly strong. Up to 45 now and really putting a dent on the monthly average and snowpack. DJF now looking to finish slightly above average, temperature wise.
