2/4 - 2/7 Multi-Wave Storm System

Recommended Posts

250% snowier day today than yesterday, but no headline here - Thx GRR!  :rolleyes:  Useless office when they're not getting hit in their backyard. 

 

3.5" since this all began, and really has that mid-winter feel again around town with plow piles increasing. 

 

Very dicey roadways too. My arrival into Marshall this evening:

Speaking of LES. 0z NAM throwing out the potential for a nice streamer off of Lk Michigan (hello TOL_Wx) in the wee hours of Saturday morning.

3-6" is considered a big storm for this area, sadly.

It appears there were additional snow squalls that came over my area and I picked up an additional 0.5" of LES.  I'm surprised that the band is still targeting parts of Cook/Lake county.  Looks like the city is getting hit pretty good as a lake plume has developed.  When I went outside to measure, the snow is so fluffy and pretty...the top layer looks like cotton balls.

 

Edit: Storm Total 3.7"

Lake Huron is providing the goods all morning as snow is coming down in a moderate clip. Looking at least 4inches currently and still coming down. Its beautiful out there. Temp at 27F. Will try to take measurement later.

So, you've done pretty good after all hey? 3.7" total, but are you certain you're done? Every time I think it's over here, another round hits, lol. The storm that keeps on giving..and giving..and giving. I'm not a radar watcher like some, and being dark I missed seeing the good stuff others said was making it's way over to Marshall last night after I got home around 9 pm. About 10 to 11:30 per airport record is when it hit and I stepped out to another 1.8" of super fluffy snow cover taking my event total to 4.8" with about 4" OTG after compaction. Surprisingly snowy couple of days after so much torching to begin the week.

A lot of areas haven’t been so lucky. When the storm began yesterday I noticed there was a bit of Lehs into N Cook and parts of Lake county that likely boosted my totals. Glad to hear you did better than expected and it looks like we’ll be able to enjoy this snow cover for more than just a few days! Lol

I am getting blowing snow now also as winds are getting quite gusty. Snow coming down at a good clip as a heavier band off from L.H is getting ready to push in. By late morning, this thing should rap up.

Until it scorched into the upper 30s over there, right? Yikes. 

 

Decent totals around SWMI after all, and not far off those maps showing 6"-ish amounts, especially if that included tonight's action.  :)

New snow got nuked today....grassy spots already showing up...

 

Not much snow left here NW of GR just trace amounts on the ground now.

 

Yeah, back to the "non-durable" variety of traditional higher ratio snow. While we faired much better here, the 4" I measured this morning on my deck railing was a shriveled up 2" after work. I have picked-up a fresh 0.3" from a squall since arriving home this evening tho. Hoping to add more overnight.
