cyclone77 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Rain mixing with wet snow here now. Picked up 0.79" of rain today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNiño Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I swear I’ve read this almost every time it has snowed this season. Racine and Kenosha counties have been the bullseye for almost every “event” in the greater area. In an otherwise lackluster snowfall this winter, those two counties cashed in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted March 20 Author Share Posted March 20 Looking for a good hit on Sunday. Unfortunately it'll be during the day when most of it falls, so it will be very wet, and probably mix with rain for a while, at least here along the shore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks so bad that they are going to screw you out of record futility due to missing data from that winter. Absurd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As tcc pointed out, there appears to be a very important M day in early December 1936. Now make no mistake about it, 1936-37 was an absolutely horrendous winter for snowfall in most spots, far worse than 2024-25. I cringe when I hear of it. It is Detroits least snowy winter on record (12.9"), Bostons least snowy on record (9.0") and ranks extremely high on the all time snowless lists in many if not most places. But I'm not sure it should be molines #1. Depending what happened that day in Dec 1936, the true #1 might be 11.1" in 1901-02. However, perhaps it was an ice storm that day, and not snow after all? Do you have access to any old local newspapers? I have access to all Detroit free press since 1837, but I wonder if anyone has access to all newspapers? It would be the best way to find out what happened that day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily there's still a decent chance we can stay under 9.9" and beat existing questionable record anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
