CentralNebWeather Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Looks like Kearney to Beatrice is doing real well with an intense weenie band and temps in the low 20's. #PowderinAprilI am over 5” and snow continues. More development to my west. It is only 21 degrees so isn’t any melting yet. Looks like it will be the heaviest snowfall of the year. I have been under this band for several hours. Heaviest was supposed to be north, but this main band stole the show. Pictures after coffee. Happy Easter. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minny_Weather Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Lincoln may get a nice weenie band here in a couple hours. It'd be nice to return home to powder this afternoon.

jaster220 Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Springs are hit or miss here. SoOkme good and some bad. The last couple years haven’t been to pleasing. This Spring has really been pretty awful and this month doesn’t look pretty. #Snowmagedon...nature waited till April this year...Actually, March of '16 was very nice after wk1, and last April was the warmest on record for this area. Ma Nature's doing some balancing it appears. As for the snow map, some regions are in for it, but subtracting for reality gives Marshall very little. Tbh, my prior post of no measurable snow prolly shoulda been "no significant snow". Dab to an inch certainly not impossible. Happy Easter to you and everyone else!

At church this morning talked to a guy that lives 20 miles south of me, he didn’t have a flake. If we aren’t careful, my area could pass 40” with one more storm.

Only difference between here and there is I have grass now. Lol. One thing for sure, the repeating pattern is legit this year. This would likely be analogous to the period at the beginning of February when it glazed for 2 days but I'd have to look back and see to be sure. Tom is the master of the pattern this year so he could probably recall faster than I could. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaster220 Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 The snow for next week looks to stay well to the north of central lower Michigan but back in 1975 when I lived in Bay City that was not the case. The storm started just after sunset on Wednesday April 2nd 1975. The second was a cold and windy day with the high for the day a just 33° with a NE wind. As I said the snow started just after sunset and by 9 PM it was snow very hard and around 10PM there was a thunderstorm with a lot of thunder and lightning and where I lived the winds were around 60 MPH or more during the thunderstorm. The power went out at my house and stay out for the next day. In the back yard I had 5 foot drifts. Here are some reports from the April 3rd Bay City Times."17 inches of snow stall area; rest of state also hit hard," the headline on the front page of The Bay City Times read on April 3, 1975. A photograph of a man riding a snowmobile through the city and snow covering South Washington are featured on the page. The 1975 storm temporarily closed Saginaw Township's Fashion Square Mall and police urged motorists to stay at home. The storm hit much of lower Michigan and led to traffic troubles throughout the region surrounding Bay City and Saginaw. In Lansing, Michigan State University had a snow day and M-81 was closed in Tuscola County. The “official snow fall at MBS (about 18 miles SW of Bay City) was 14.4”. That snow stay on the ground for 9 days.One of my all time best storms right there! My dad took me to the cinema for a 7 pm showing of Towering Inferno cuz it my Easter recess from school. It was on the east side of Flint about 6 miles from my parent's place in Davison. When we went in, not a flake was seen. It was a very long movie (4 hrs!) and when we came out it was like a bliz with massive flakes and prolly 2"+/hr rates. I don't remember lightning strikes, but you could barely see the road. Just made it home and into our driveway around midnight as the depth was hitting a heavy-n-wet 8" which was about the limit with rear wheel drive cars of that era before getting stuck was a legit likelihood. By late the following morning, we had 18" with blizzard conditions, whiteouts, you couldn't see half a block in either direction down our street. My buddy and his dad hiked past heading to his grandparent's house where their snowmobiles were already put away for the summer. I watched them disappear into a wall of white dragging a wooden tobaggon. Nothing was moving! My sister was engaged and his family had Ski-doo sleds. They came home around noon to explain that they had been out all night rescuing peeps stranded on M-21 towards Lapeer. He took me for a short ride and we jumped cover a large pile near a field. Must've been six feet in the air and I thought I was gonna die, lol. Those old sleds weren't made for that! I was, in futility beginning to dig out my dad's car as the snow was to the top of the rear bumper. I did not get too far. That snow was concrete mixer heavy, and we eventually borrowed a neighbor's wimpy blower which was slightly better than nothing as I recall. And yes, that snow was so heavy it stuck around a long time. The pile at the dead-end of my street was there in total whiteness well after my Little League season had begun. It had become so dense we could ride our bikes over it like a huge motocross jump. It might have been there til May! Wish I knew the truth on that..
