jaster220 Posted December 29, 2018 Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 It feels like Octoberish. Btw: Also, I am noticing the real cold air down the road is not real cold anymore. The 20s for highs are gone. Only once or twice a century will a wintery Nov lead to a great winter. For SWMI you have to go way back to find one of those seasons. I believe 1951-52 was the best with 66-67 good as well. 1842-43 pulled it off as well. Those aren't great odds so when this Nov went full-blown winter you knew it could go great or, more often than not, it could go the other way. I will say that the current '16-17 treatment is enough to wanna fast-forward to spring, lol 1 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mean in Grand Rapids is 32.6 that is a departure of +3.2 and there has only been 3.2” of snow fall (a departure of -17.6”) At Muskegon their mean is 33.8° (-3.2) and their snow fall has only been 3.2” (-23.7”) over at Lansing the mean is 31.7 (+3.1) and the snow fall is just 1.2” (-10.8”) on the east side of the state Detroit has a mean of 34.4 (+4.1) and only 0.4” of snow fall. At Flint the numbers are 31.3° (+3.8) and 3.3” Of snow fall. At Saginaw the numbers are 31.5 (+3.9) with just 0.9” of snow fall.

In the UP Sault Ste Marie the mean is 26.1 (+3.6) with 14.2” of snow fall At Munising the mean is 27.7 (+3.5) and they have had just 14.3” of snow fall At Marquette the mean is 22.7 (+3.9) with 35.5” of snow fall. The one big item that stands out is the lack of lake effect snow this winter here are some snow fall departure from norther Michigan Alpena -11.4” Houghton Lake -15.8” Gaylord -26.1” Traverse City -19.6” even in parts of the UP the snow fall is down Munising -11.8” Sault St Marie -4.9” and here in Grand Rapids for the winter season at this point the departure is now at -10.2”The sun is now out here and the temperature is now at 33.4° and what little bit of snow on the ground is now melting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 On this last day of 2018, mother nature is going to ring in the New Year on a stormy note across the MW/GL's region. It's to bad our New Year's storm isn't transpiring into a widespread winter storm. I really thought this storm system had a good chance to develop into a bigger snowstorm, but it's just not going to happen. In any case, yesterday afternoon I took a last minute trip up north to Castle Rock Lake to help a friend of mine fix his gas tank for his beach house. It was sorta an emergency and came back last night. The whole ride up north on the 90 had light snow/flurries sputtering out of the low stratus cloud deck and it had that wintry feel but the lack of a deep snow pack was not the look of winter up there. The last time I took a trip up north into Wisco during the Winter was for a ski trip to Cascade Mtn a few years back and during that trip there was a landscape full of deep snow. What I'm trying to say is, the brown landscape was an "eye sore" to look at. Not only that, but the businesses that need the snow were desperate to see it snow again. Keeping that in mind, we should make a slogan called..."MakeItSnowAgain" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 I am in town and blowing snow is impressive. We still have most of our blizzard snow from last week and in places off of drifts the visibility is less than a block then no issues then low visibility. Glad I’m not driving an east west highway 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted January 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 We finished December here with 5.6", only 0.3" below normal. It felt like we got less, but we did get 3" in the first couple days of the month which boosted our total.

Stormy Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 There must have been some lower totals than 0.7". I bet there is a trace December somewhere in the records. I’m pretty confident there have been trace December snowfall amounts in the past in CR. Maybe even in the last decade as I’ve had no measurable snowfall in three December’s since 2000, but none in the 1990s. In 2002, (only .20” in 2001) 2006, & 2014! I’m only approximately 40 miles due south of CR. & my records start 1/1/1990.Also only .30” snowfall this month Season = 14.5” (Still above normal!)Dec. precip.= 2.97”2018 precip.= 49.69” (wettest yr. since 2010) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another one well liked around here is 06-07 with Battle Creek hitting 97.5" that season despite the late start. One can only hope the we see something of that genre going forward.
