Gonna be a wet, wild, and perhaps white?? opening morning of deer season (firearms) by the looks of things. Should be some whiteness across the UP and/or NMI. Nothing too ominous this far south but staying tuned regardless. I'm a yuge fan of strong autumn storms in the Lakes as a harbinger of good winter ahead. 7 am map is more wet than white but she drops to 980 mb or so and ushers in colder 850's to flip in the traditional LES belts of the Northlands.

Hopefully buried, haha! Back in Dec of 2000, snow depths peaked during the holidays. Looking at records for nearby cities just to my east Albion reached 25" and a bit north Charlotte hit an incredible 28" OTG during the week leading up to New Years. It must have been a winter wonderland that year around here. Wish I could've been here to experience it. I miss having deep snow (12+) OTG. That's the biggest goal I have right now for the winter.

jaster220 Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 MQT on Sunday's storm Quote .LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday) Issued at 403 PM EST THU NOV 12 2020 A dome of surface high pressure over the southern Great Lakes will be in place for the early part of Saturday due to upper level ridging taking place. The lower levels will warm nicely and mix down to the surface on Saturday, allowing temperatures to rise quickly as well on the order of potentially 10-15 degrees higher in comparison to Friday afternoon highs. The WAA regime will be taking place ahead of a developing mid-latitude cyclone across the central CONUS/Great Plains area Saturday afternoon further upstream of the CWA. The GFS/NAM/EURO are hinting at a merger of sorts with two separate surface Lows combining between early Saturday and late Saturday night. Currently looks to be a the Polar Jet and Subtropical Jet enhancement near one another causing the surface Low to deepen over the Great Lakes. The GFS and NAM have swapped solutions over the last 24 hours between previous 12Z runs. The GFS now has a 979mb surface Low by 0Z Sunday evening, whereas the EURO is advertising a 984mb surface low. Both Low centers will deepen the most over Ontario. Presently, the analysis is showing rain as the main precipitation type to start the weather event over the CWA, with the surface cold front bringing the colder air behind it. This will transition the cold rain to a mixed bag of precipitation, and then switching to light snow showers by Sunday night into Monday. Models have backed off on the potential for heavier snow totals, but lake effect may still be something to keep an eye out for once we get closer to the weekend where the high resolution guidance can assist with a forecast package. Euro model hinting at lingering snow showers through Tuesday morning. 3 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...
jaster220 Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Wow. 13/0z GFS goes bonkers with a 973 mb SLP Sunday morning north east of Superior! NAM's no where near the deepest, but certainly the 12/18z was much colder than other models showing more snow flying on the N and W sides of the storm. Would be nice if things trended just cold enough for northern locales to get a nice blasting during gun season opener. Would be a flashback for those who hunted during the real bliz of 11/16/89.

Tom Posted November 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Happy Friday the 13th! #TGIF...things are about to warm up quite a bit around these parts while back home it's gonna get chilly and windy. The 00z Euro is showing daytime highs in the mid/upper 30's for Chitown and points N & E on Tuesday...Brrr!!! Meanwhile, over here in the desert SW we may be on the verge of more late season record heat as a string of upper 80's is on the way, with the possibility of touching 90F on a couple days next week. On a side note, before I left for AZ I was thinking about how early the leafs turned color this year and it appears almost likely that most, if not, all of the hardy trees will have no leafs on them by the time Thanksgiving week comes around. I haven't seen what it looks like back home but I'm sure there aren't many leaves left on the trees and after this weekends potent systems targeting the GL's there will be many bare trees. This has not happened in a number of years iirc. Was it Nov '13 or '14....gosh, I can't remember what year it was but I do recall how cold it was when I went fishing up into S WI and the edges of the lake was frozen over early one of those years. Anyway, I like the signals nature is showing and she may be gearing up for a "White Thanksgiving"....I'll explain below... In recent days, the models may now be starting to dial up on potential winter storm system around the 21st that may impact the all-important start of the holiday travel week. Last nights 00z Euro showing a classic pattern with a Canadian HP over the top seeding arctic air and a storm coming out of the central Rockies (CO LOW???). I like the set up and the potential is there for a lot of you north of I-80 to be in the game. Get those Christmas lights up! 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Issued at 330 PM EST Fri Nov 13 2020 A significant marine event is expected this weekend. A strong fall storm system will work northeast through the Great Lakes Saturday night and Sunday. Gale force winds at least are expected late Saturday night and Sunday. At this point we are issuing a Gale Warning for Saturday night through Sunday and Sunday evening. 40 to 45 knot gales are likely. Recent events have not had 50 knots in the profile to tap into. This event is trending up in terms of wind and we are now seeing 50 knots in the mixed layer on Sunday. 50-55 knots are seen in BUFKIT overviews at Holland on Sunday. Worst of the conditions should be Sunday morning. Waves of 10-15 feet are likely with the potential for have peak waves above 15 feet. At this point going to roll with a Gale Warning, but the potential exists for a possible upgrade to a Storm Warning. 2 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...

Tom Posted November 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 After analyzing the overnight, I had flashbacks of a storm system that impacted our sub in early October with the same characteristics. I think I just "saw" the beginnings of LRC cycle #2. The fact that the models are slowing down this system late next weekend, it is coming in line remarkably close to what transpired back during the Oct 10th period where there was a system similar that developed in the central CONUS with an over-running event followed by a stalled CF along the OHV where a secondary SLP formed and tracked up through the OHV. The 00z EPS is showing this more so than the GEFS right now so we'll have to see how this all plays out. I don't have my note pad with me to validate the exact dates of this similar pattern back in Oct, but I'll double check later on. Nonetheless, I think we'll have our next winter storm to track.... 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westMJim Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 The overnight low here at my house was 24 and it looks like it fell down to 22 at the airport. At this time it is clear and 26 both here and at the airport. Now we will have to see just how windy it will be tomorrow. There are high wind warnings at the lake shore and there is a high wind watch to the east of here and our area is in a wind advisory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinton Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Here is the 500 millibar map from October 11th if you compare it to this morning's 6z GFS for what it has happening on November 25th they line up almost perfectly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaster220 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Watching to see just how low Sunday's storm can bomb out, and whether our winds end up worse than currently headlined. As of the overnight AFD it's expected to go sub-980 mb Quote We will need to monitor the risk for greater than 50 knot winds inland Sunday Afternoon. Based on the Nam and GFS in Bufkit...places like Lansing and Grand Rapids are seeing the mixing height just reaching into the 50 knot winds. If confidence on this happening increases...we may need to upgrade the inland wind advisory to a high wind warning. 3 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...

Minny_Weather Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 EPS members are still all over the place on next week's storm. Most have a storm, but the jack zones range from OK to MB. 1 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.
