Spartman Posted Monday at 02:17 AM Share Posted Monday at 02:17 AM April kicks off on a chilly note on April Fool's Day, but we're going to a warm, but very wet stretch the day after that will last through the first weekend of the month. A stretch so wet that many places could risk making it to the top 10 wettest Aprils ever during the first days of the month right before we start dealing with the effects of the March SSW the week after. Models have actually had such a wet start to the month zeroed in for the past several days.

CheeselandSkies Posted Monday at 02:53 AM Share Posted Monday at 02:53 AM Well that sure turned around quick. Wasn't I just seeing a bunch of long range outlooks that had positive anomalies in the East/Midwest? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted Monday at 06:20 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:20 PM flood headlines up for the upcoming event downstate Multiple rounds of locally heavy rainfall over several days will result in extreme forecast amounts of up to 1 foot of rain that will cause the risk of flash flooding and flooding to rise markedly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClimateChanger Posted Tuesday at 05:10 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:10 PM 7 minutes ago, Spartman said: April has certainly turned into flood season around the Ohio Valley. This is well illustrated from the graphic below of Cincinnati Area precipitation for the month of April, which shows a strong secular (or progressive) wetting trend since the late 19th century. The linear regression implies an increase in precipitation equal to 1.66 inches [4.41 inches - 2.75 inches] since 1872. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueWaves Posted yesterday at 01:12 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:12 AM Winter. The season that just keeps on giving. 11th headline for snow/ice with a fair risk of power outages. No thanks! GRR: .DISCUSSION... Issued at 352 PM EDT Tue Apr 1 2025 - Winter Weather Tonight A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for areas north of I-96 tonight through noon on Wednesday for a wintry mix of snow changing to sleet and freezing rain. Ice accumulations may approach a quarter inch across parts of Osceola, Clare and Isabella Counties by late Wednesday morning before temperatures get above freezing. Warm advection/isentropic ascent increases this evening with snow expected to break out after midnight generally north of I-96. Thermal profiles show that snow will mix with sleet and freezing rain by daybreak with generally 1 to 3 inches of snow across the advisory area. Elevated instability during the morning could lead to some heavier precip rates, with ice pellets and heavy freezing rain causing travel impacts, primarily across the higher elevations of Osceola and Clare Counties. We will have to watch precip trends during the morning for the potential for heavy freezing rain causing power outages. Many of my work associates have been on generators since Saturday and some don't expect power restored for weeks. Gaylord's pretty much a disaster zone. Ice sucks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnchaserguy Posted yesterday at 01:25 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:25 AM Grass has quickly gotten covered in snow. Roads should remain mostly ok. Big band moving in to my backyard soon. Edit. After looking at DOT cameras in the south metro it looks like the roads are getting bad quick under that heavy band moving my way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can confirm roads are snow covered here. This band means business. We are going to end up with ~2” Edit: Monster flakes. Biggest of the season easily. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted yesterday at 01:38 PM Share Posted yesterday at 01:38 PM Started as snow here around 7am, just a trace, then quickly turned to rain which at times mixed with sleet, and now some thunder. Temps in the mid-30s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchageddon Posted yesterday at 02:34 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:34 PM The crush is coming, just 1 hr from heavy snow and insanely WUN is showing at 12pm of 7cm/2.75" in 1 hour!! I've never seen that rate forecast here. Radar showing in Sarnia/Lake St Claire area the heaviest snow band I've seen in a few years. Its going to be 1 hr of freezing rain, then heavy rain soon after with a tstorm by 11pm. 7-12cm of snow, then 16mm of rain same day, then sunny and 13C tomorrow. Dynamic is an understatement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian D Posted yesterday at 02:47 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:47 PM Measured 1.5" at 630 this morning. Basically been having a very wet light snow (white rain) until about 900 when it went from -sn to sn. Still some wet stuff, tho. Temp at 32 with ENE winds 10-25. Ugly day out there, but nice to see precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
