I was further north were it was both warm and a bit cloudy tho too. Haven't used any AC, just fans in the car. Did leave a window open last night and never once felt a chilly breeze. Ready to get back to "autumn" personally. I cracked a couple of windows as well last nite. Actually, it felt kinda chilly, w dry air over us, temps drop considerably at nighttime.

I read an article that the ice coverage in and around the GL's was low till about Dec 11th when the cold came fast and hard for the rest of December. Then came the Jan thaw but Feb-Mar was cold I believe. I'll have to look back again.

From record warmth to a Winter Storm...what volatile wx pattern that has set up. I think this will be a common theme going forward. Many ups and downs in a La Nina pattern with a lot of potential for heavy snows the farther north you are. Sorta reminds me of the pattern during the '17-'18 season I believe it was that buried the Upper MW/GL's.

OmahaSnowFan Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 1.41” of rain/freezing rain here so far. Crazy how much of a difference one or maybe two degrees make. looking at my weather station, the temperature was between 31.6-32.2 all night long while we’ve had .93” of the total rain since midnight. Bc it was so close to freezing we only got minimal accumulation on the trees and elevated surfaces. You go west from here about 20-30 miles and further and that’s where the major ice accumulations occurred. The first pic is from my house, the rest off of Twitter from areas west of here. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SE Wisconsin Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 SPC issued new MD for likely tornado watch. This is turning into quite the November storm! Mesoscale Discussion 1780 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0128 PM CST Tue Nov 10 2020 Areas affected...northern IL and including the greater Chicago metro...southeast WI Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely Valid 101928Z - 102100Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...A tornado watch is likely by 3pm CST for northeast IL northward into southeast WI. The forecast primary severe hazards are 55-70 mph gusts and a QLCS mesovortex threat capable of brief/weak tornadoes and/or narrow swaths of stronger gusts. The supercell tornado threat is conditional and a bit more uncertain. The greatest tornado risk will generally be located north of I-80 to the east/southeast of the surface low. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stopped in York to check in with a client, and was amazed at how much ice they accumulated out there overnight and this morning. The pictures turned out nicely as the sun came out as I was leaving town to jump back on I-80, which really wasn’t bad at all this morning. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaster220 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 @Tom Any severe over your place (back home)? This is one of those "sneak attack" systems that seem to be a Nina thang. 07-08 had these too. Overnight AFD was "rain..then colder" but since then I've gotten multiple headlines in effect. I was in Holland and ran into heavy rain bands both going and coming back. Still dry and a very mild 71F having hit 74F for the high. Meanwhile, tomorrow's high keeps getting lowered. Now a full 30F colder than today with 44F in the grid (tho not sure if they mean at midnight and falling, or afternoon?). These extreme temp gradients are going to make for some doozy systems as we get into winter.

jaster220 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 OK, maybe not severe after all, but a fun "something to track" night nonetheless Quote .UPDATE... Issued at 955 PM EST Tue Nov 10 2020 Max measured gusts in narrow convective line have been sub-severe this evening... generally 40-50 mph. Every now and then the kinks/bows within the line have been concerning and may have produced localized svr gusts to 60 mph or more, but only isolated power outages have been noted so far. Most of those are north of GRR. MLCape values are only around 250 J/KG, although about 75-100 of that is down low in the 0-3km layer and effective bulk shear is around 55 kts currently. This line will continue to be closely monitored as it moves east, but for the most part it should remain sub-severe. Will be cancelling some counties from the watch soon (behind the line). Wind gusts up to 45 mph are also expected for a few hours overnight with the cold frontal passage. The front lags a bit behind the convection. No change to the wind advisory. 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...

St Paul Storm Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 Pure rippage out there. I’d say about 4-5” down. Might pick up another inch by the time it ends. Quick hitter, but man is it hitting hard. Good stuff. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzcoat Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 80 years ago today- one of the worst Blizzards to hit the Upper Midwest (ranked #2 on many lists I've seen on MN climate only behind the Halloween Blizzard of 1991) was the Armistice Day Blizzard. It actually changed how the Weather Bureau issued forecasts and killed nearly 150 people. Incredible. Here is some info - and Happy Veterans' Day and if you served this great country my hat is off to you sir / madam. https://www.mprnews.org/story/2000/11/10/the-winds-of-hell 6 Quote The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.
