2-19/2-21 Great Lakes Winter Storm...Heavy Rain/Flooding and Snow Part 2

Dom, you get some thunderstorms?

 

Yes I did this morning at like 4-5am but it really has not been bad all day. Just some intervals of showers for most part. Though the fog has been quite strong all day but that is clearing out now. We made it to 51 degrees today.

Wow that's quite warm. Been spotty showers here all day, and got in on a little hail and lightning around 3:30 this afternoon. Ended with .58" rainfall and a lot of melted snow, but temps only maxed out at 37 here I believe. Fog got dense here briefly but the wind picked up soon after and it went away. And wow is it windy right, pretty crazy.

Man the wind is pretty tense right now. I can hear it smacking the trees pretty vaguely. Garbage cans are flying everywhere.

Extremely windy here this morning white out at times in open areas! I think there should still be a high wind warning

The roads are also awful I have seen 4 accidents already! A record for me, seems like the roads are all ice

Blizzard like conditions here. A good coating so far. Pretty nice surprised I was not expecting this.

No kidding. I skidded the farthest I have ever before! About 50 feet. 

 

Just a trace of snow at home. A couple tenths in Racine.

Video I took yesterday around 5pm. You can see that huge flag in the wind and the sound of ice pellets and rain hitting the wind shield. Without a doubt, my least favorite type of weather.
