Folks, Ol' Man Winter is not going into hibernation anytime soon.  While we close out the month of March today, models are dialing in on a potent winter storm....in mid Spring!  Can someone tell the wx God's it's time for some 60's/70's???

 

Last night's 00z Euro laying down a swatch of significant snows across NE/IA/WI into MI.  00z GFS is farther north with the snow.  Who's going to cash in on some more late season snows???

Cant believe this. Really? One going just south the next going just north of Omaha?

Jackpot zone is near Traverse City, MI with 12-16”...history repeats itself? Shades of 1975..:

Not quite amigo. April '75 storm tracked into W PA and bullseyed Chicago and SMI vs TC and NMI. I chased March 5th, 2012 that did bullseye TC since that winter left us downstate yearning. Currently, being April, I'm more likely to chase sunshine or warmth. Glad this isn't looking to be a repeat of April '75 tbh

Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 52.8" (89% Normal Season)  Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13)   Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.1 Apr: 0.0

Avg = 59.2"  (Harrison): 2023-24 = xx.x" 

Avg = 45.0"  (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5"   2021-22 = 35.6"    

Avg = 49.7"  (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2"   2019-20 = 48.0"   2018-19 = 56.1"   2017-18 = 68.3"    2016-17 = 52"    2015-16 = 57.4"    2014-15 = 55.3"    2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!)  2012-13 = 47.2"    2011-12 = 43.7"

Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918

What I meant to say was, TC looks to be the jackpot zone with this system. N MI crush jobs in the works.

18z NAM with a huge shift south....like 100 miles with the heaviest snow. 12k with an MSP jack zone. 3km much more realistic but still a very nice hit for MN and WI.

6-9” in the point.

Looks like 0z nam taking another shift south which isn’t too surprising
