patrick7032 Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Yeah it is off a county or two. That is the new algorithm from Mike. Have been watching it awhile - does pretty good. Not perfect - but not bad. Sleeting here at this time I was just looking at radar and wondering if there might be a little PL on the back side as you posted that....wondering if upstream that was occurring....good timing.

Ajdos Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 NAM bringing in some heavy snowfall around Detroit later on tonight, looks like that batch of moisture down to the south is moving n/n/e and will be entering s/e Mi? And it looks to be snow. I'm a bit confused..this evening.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Global_Warmer Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Had Ten min of sleet today and twenty min of snow. Light dusting. Nice to get it over with. To my west had more and to my east as well but it happened. The next storm looks to bring us all mostly rain then cold cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my west had more and to my east as well but it happened. The next storm looks to bring us all mostly rain then cold cold By the time this cold reaches us from the west it weakens, and each storm is so strong it draws moisture and warmth north easily.. We need a real arctic front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 That's an impressive temperature gradient out there. 850mb temps are 6C in Detroit while they're -10C in Muskegon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 The wind has really picked up here. NAM & GFS have the 850mb temps plummeting to -10C by midnight (and 925mb temps to -5C). So we'll see. There's one heck of a dewpoint depression too (single digits in Manistee and still lower 40s in Detroit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick7032 Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I might get a few minutes of -SN or PL....upstream obs are reporting it right now. It looks to be occurring immediately along and behind the deformation axis which can be seen along a KARB to KPTK axis right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, Flint's reporting blownig snow and Pontiac's getting closer. Of course they're higher in elevation. There's quite a bit of subsidence moving in however, so I'm questioning if these showers will survive much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxdudemike Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 This precip typing is fairly accurate around here - at this time http://weatherobserv...radar_comp1.htm That is doing better than the other sites I've been watching, although it is still a little behind. I just got a report from NW franklin county, IN (in the SE part of the state) that they changed to snow and that map has the line a bit west of them but fairly close. Looks like the transition is happening at the 925mb freezing line which is running well ahead of the 850mb 0C line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
