westMJim Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 As this will be a several day event I have posted this in both the December discussion and hereHere just NW of Grand Rapids, Michigan we had a short but very intense snow shower late last night. Here at my house I recorded 3.5” in just over one hour. And now have 4.5” on the ground (there is still some melting from the warm ground) that 4.5” is on the grass on the road and drive way there is about 2” with some ice and slush. The temperature here is now at 28° Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gosaints Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 this type of set up is gonna make for some nervous radar watching on the southern edge. Biggest totals will probably be just north of that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 Ever so slightly, I agree. But, also dragging in some warmer air too each run. That R/S line creeps into S. IA and even somewhat close to Chicago. Even if some don't switch over, that's going to bring the snow ratios closer to 10:1, a wetter snow cutting back on totals. UGH Love a 10:1 snow, especially as a foundation for a glacier, that's the best. When I had snow sleds I always hoped for that first big storm to lay down a heavy 8+ as a base for the trails. Fluff stuff just doesn't have the staying power. Ofc, we're fighting ground that never chilled off over here in MI as well. Yep this board seems to be much more popular than another. We have a MUCH more positive Mod who isn't full of himself. That's the main reason as I see things. When it's clearly our turn for a storm Chicago comes in like: http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Raccoon-Steals-Cat-Food.gif ROFLMAO funny!! How you keep your humor in the face of the cards you've been dealt I don't know, but glad that you can!

Tom Posted December 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 @ Jaster, I appreciate the compliment. Many thanks. I'll admit, when I first started posting in this forum a few years ago I was overly confident and at times, hard headed. Since then, I have grown and matured and veered away from that.

Strangely enough, getting missed by every storm has taught me to just appreciate when it does happen, versus getting overly disappointed when it doesn't. Yeah, it IS the most awful thing in the world when it's 6 degrees and bare ground, but there is much more to life then getting upset about snow. Now I just treat it as a surprise gift, versus an expectation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still visit periodically because they're the only ones I've found with a more region centric thread for me (OK/AR/KS/MO) but it's only like 5 people in there now and if nothing is going on, it gets boring in a hurry. I've been kicked off there like 3 times because I don't have much of a filter when it comes to political BS. Lol. I'm glad the crybabies took their political thread off.
