fluoronium Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 The 0z HRRR is an all time weenie run for my area. It has a supercell in a tornadic environment tracking over my house and then has accumulating snow falling 9 hours later. The dream! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClimateChanger Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Maybe a little early to talk about, but summer looking solid. Looking high and dry for many on today's update. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Perry Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Back to western ridge and eastern trough for a while though. Looking ahead will be good though when the jet buckles, plenty of cold air to the north and subtropical air from the Gulf. Ultimately I believe this will be a pretty significant severe weather season for the midwest and into the Great Lakes region - similar to 2011/12 with lots of above average temps mixed in.

Maybe it will keep sending more of the our way but will we be able to see them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClimateChanger Posted Tuesday at 03:49 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:49 PM This is interesting. If snowfall continues dropping at the average rate of the 21st century, it will drop below -20" [negative 20 inches] by 2050 at Cleveland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted Tuesday at 06:59 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:59 PM Cant remember if I posted this or not, but looking at snowfall after mid-April in Detroit shows that never have more flakes fallen so late with such frequency as they have in the 2020s. Snow has fallen on an average of 4.6 days per year after mid-April in the 2020s, easily #1, with 2nd place being the 1900s at 3.2 days. Also, with an average post mid-April snow of 2.2", the 2020s also blows away 2nd place (1920s - avg 1.3"). As long as the next 5 years manage to see a total of 1.9" or more of snow in this timeframe, the 2020s will finish as the most snowy of any decade for post mid-April snow. 5 years with most days of snow on/after April 15th: 2020- 10 days 1907- 8 days 1947- 7 days 2023- 6 days 1956- 6 days 5 years with heaviest accumulation of snow on/after April 15th 1923- 8.2” 1943- 5.5” 2020- 5.2” 1883- 5.0” 2005- 4.4” Decade Avg days 4/15+ Total snow 4/15+ 1880s 0.5 days 0.6” (total 5.8”) 1890s 0.5 days 0.3” (total 2.7”) 1900s 3.2 days 0.6” (total 6.0”) 1910s 1.4 days 0.3” (total 2.7”) 1920s 2.0 days 1.3” (total 12.9”) 1930s 1.8 days T (total 0.4”) 1940s 1.8 days 0.9” (total 9.3”) 1950s 2.5 days 0.2” (total 1.5”) 1960s 2.1 days 0.5” (total 5.4”) 1970s 1.2 days 0.1” (total 0.8”) 1980s 1.7 days 0.5” (total 5.2”) 1990s 0.7 days 0.1” (total 0.7”) 2000s 1.2 days 0.5” (total 4.5”) 2010s 1.7 days 0.5” (total 5.3”) 2020s 4.6 days 2.2” (total 11.1”) *thru 2024* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing some OBS with 50-55MPH wind gusts scattered across the state this afternoon, including at MDW. It had looked like a 35-45MPH peak type of deal previously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
