Jaycee Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 To be honest, I've somewhat given up on this being a good month lol NW flow is too dominant and I think it'll be that way for awhile. I'll be here when there is a storm to track but for now, if this is how it's going to be, then bring on the warm weather. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Thankfully NO!! SWMI is one of the few places to rival New England's expected haul during the next 72 hrs Tbh, I am not buying those incredible amounts of snowfall on that model. Maybe a glitch going on.

Also, if you guys wanna know something funny, it's possible yet that Chorpus Christi, TX and now parts of Florida and Georgia might end up with more snow than us through this winter. I mean, you don't get a bigger slap in the face than that lol like come on.

Just remember this next fall when every blog and amateur forecast says again we’re all going to have the winter of our lifetime. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a below normal forecast on the internet come out from any snow lover’s forecast/blog. Funny how often the CPC’s winter forecast ends up being pretty accurate in the end.

jaster220 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Dang boy... .looking good there. How much are we talking.......I am thinking about a foot or so. Per (NOAA)..GRR Tonight our clipper low merges with a very powerful Nor-Easter andthat will result in two days of north winds and arctic air. Thiswill mean persistent lake effect snow bands near US-31 with theBig and Little Sable points and extreme western Van Buren andAllegan Counties getting the heaviest snowfall. Those areas couldsee 2 feet of snow by Friday. Beyond that a southern stream system tries to move into the arealate in the weekend or by early next week. That will bring an endto this unusually cold weather but may mean a snow storm. Thatwill have to be watched.

Feels like that the past decade for the most part. I don't want to go down the road of us complaining, you guys know the story by now. It's hard for me personally to find excitement in anything outside of 120 hrs out. We're talking 384hrs + when we say "it's not over" ya know? 2 weeks to wait for a potential change, like how can anyone find excitement with that? I live for Spring and severe weather as well. I don't think there is anything quite like waking up to a moderate risk for our area. The adrenaline rush from severe weather is untouchable, especially out here. The sad thing is, this forum dies when spring/summer comes around. No one really seems to care about it except for a handful. Heck, there's not even a storm for most of us right now and yet there's 22 people reading this thread as we speak-- that is like 6 times higher than any thread I've seen from May through August.

Tony Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 ......Ok, I will settle for WWA instead. We are due for something of substance but we would settle for WWA as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianJK Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Can you post pics or link me? I always forget the EURO link that's free. Also, if you guys wanna know something funny, it's possible yet that Chorpus Christi, TX and now parts of Florida and Georgia might end up with more snow than us through this winter. I mean, you don't get a bigger slap in the face than that lol like come on. I almost took a vacation to Orlando this week too, soooo glad I didn't. Don't worry - I'm sure there's something looming "right around the corner" heh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud2380 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 If the Euro would phase together just a tad sooner, it could be a nice storm this weekend. As it is, some areas are still looking like they will get a nice hit on this run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDR Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Map?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bud2380 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 I can only provide this crappy map from weather.us. it looks like it displays the snow in terms of QPF so you would need to use your imagination on ratios to see projected snow, but there is a blotch of .4-.6" qpf in west central Illinois. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 The snow has all but stopped here at my house (still a few flurries) I have cleared the driveway and pulled the snow off the edge of the roof, I have 5" of new snow and now have 14" on the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
