We’ve had about 12 days of winter so far this year.  Snow looks to vanish by next Thursday.   Will it come back is the question.   But staying power is out the window as we head to mid-February.  

12 days only? Aren't you near Grand Rapids? It has recorded a trace or more of snow on 34 different days since Dec. 1st. This includes 10 straight days of some snow to end Jan. Come next Thursday when you suggest the snow will be gone, will that be like 2-3 weeks you have had had snow on the ground in a row? 

Here down in KC, we would give anything for 5 straight days of snow cover let alone 2+ weeks of snow cover.

yeah, but lake effect flurries are boring lol.  For the most part, we had plowable snow right before Thanksgiving, which melted fairly quickly.   Than right before Christmas. (the blizzard that could have been).  Then it disappeared by New Years.  Then we had .6" through January 20th.  Now the last 2 weeks we've had the two storms and a little Lake effect snow.  So basically we've had winter conditions for about 4 days in November, 6 days in December and from January 22nd to now.   

Now we are above normal in snowfall for the WHOLE season already.  But it sure doesn't feel that way.  The lake giveth and the lake taketh away.

The official snow fall amount so far this winter season at Grand Rapids is now at 81.1" but there has only been 32 days with 1" or more on the ground.  So there have been 3 big snow events but not much snow staying on the ground.
