MIKEKC Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Very warm and wet winter here in KC. Perennials and cool season weeds are are popping everywhere. Soil temps are warm for this time of year and we there is no frost line... IS winter over for KC?? Never really got going....pattern looks very active, but, the cold never really sets up shop this far south on the current data. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gimmesnow Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Is this a major model bug? I don't think I've seen one cut up as hard as this on a model before. Kind of weird to see a low track completely north like that, isn't it? Animation has it going pure north basically following the Dakotas/Minnesota border.

Tom Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 "Fantastic, Ferocious Finish to FEB"...I could see the Northwoods with some Stupendous amounts of Snow over the next 9-10 days. Sorta reminds me of FEB '17 or was it '18 that dumped snow over and over in the same areas. I remember @Madtown and our other member who has a cottage up there showing a 3 Foot snow depth up near Rhinelander, WI...or....was it Hayward, WI. Nevertheless, that's gonna be the hot spot with the next storm dialing up for next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chescowxman Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 If you don't like the weather at anytime this week...just wait a few hours. A very changeable pattern for the rest of the week. We picked up 0.15" of rain overnight and will see another round of rain this PM. While amounts will be light there could be some thunder and high wind gusts later today with the frontal passage. Colder tonight and tomorrow with more rain arriving tomorrow night then very warm on Thursday with highs well into the 60. Temperatures then fall below normal by Friday and Saturday with a slight chance of some snow on Saturday before warming back up above normal by Sunday.

westMJim Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 I was late getting up today and I am still tired. The official H/L yesterday at Grand Rapids was 41/26 there was no rain or snow fall. And there was 46% of possible sunshine. The current temperature here at my house is 28 and there is some light snow falling. For today the average H/L is 35/21 the record high of 66 was set in 1930 and the record low of -8 was set in 1968 the record snow fall of 6.0” was set way back in 1898. The question now is just how much sleet and or ice will we receive from this upcoming event. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a few days the lighter snow is gone and you can see exactly where the heaviest snow fell. Exactly! I like when it's clear soon after a snow so I can see where it tracked. Earlier today I could still see a little bit of snow over my area on visible satellite, but the ground is mostly bare now though there are plenty patches of snow left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part my COVID so far has been like a odd cold. That is cold like symptoms but just feels different for some reason. While I seem to be feeling better, the overnight was not good to me. I have been having on and off coughing spells with not hint as to when one was going to happen. Well, I had a real bad one that woke me up at 2:30 or so and I had to cough up a lot of what I will call phlegm that is centered around my voice box, larynx area. I am one of the few people that still have my tonsils around that area as well. Anyway it took a good while of coughing to get that phlegm out. That is coughing and the help of a hot Vernors, lemon and a good shot of Seagram’s. I have had around 3 rounds of that coughing the last couple of days. The official H/L here in Grand Rapids yesterday was 47/34 there was no rain or snow fall and the sun was out for 418 minutes good for 65%. There was a reported 1” of snow on the ground yesterday at 7 AM. During my coughing spell the low fell to 22 here and now it is 23 with clear skies. For today the average H/L is now up to 35/20 the record high of 63 was in 2018 and the record low of -13 was set in 1966 and again in 2015. The record snow fall amount of 7.1” fell in 2011. We still have our eyes on the system for mid week. I had my last bout with covid (likely omicron variant) a little over a year ago. I had an appointment over Zoom with a doctor in Florida for the first time ever, but by the time my meds arrived on around day 5 I was feeling better and never needed to take them. Take care and I hope you get back to normal soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNebWeather Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 I coach our 7th Grade Boys Basketball team. Our last game was Monday vs. Broken Bow. I was talking to their coach about their snow and snow days. They have had quite a winter in Custer County, much more than us in my area. He said they have used 6 snow days. However, they don't build in days or hours, districts decide, into their school calendar. They will be making up all 6. I told him we have used 4 with 2 late starts. We build a lot of extra hours into our schedule, and I've heard we have 1 or 2 days days left, then we start making up time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Dec 1st have had 6 rains of either side of 1 inch, amazing for this part of Iowa to get this much precip particularly rain in winter. And have had 23" of snow on 7 to 9 events.. Have plowed or salted many properties 10 to 12 times (12 plowable events my avg winter).
