I took a peak at one of the ski resorts I used to go to up in the U.P. and it looks like they are blowing snow in a frenzy. https://www.bigsnow.com/live-cams They need some snow up there badly...as do much of us snow geese in this Sub! 00z Euro flashing some sort of secondary wave that digs deep into the S Plains (which is one of this year's LRC exhibits) and tracks up towards the GL's. Comparing yesterday's 12z EPS to tonight's 00z EPS you can see the shift SE of the models "thinking" of next weekends storm system. It appears this could very well be a 2-wave system the way things stand now. Similar to what we saw in the 1st cycle. Yesterday's 12z EPS... Last nights 00z EPS... It's very sad for a lot of places. Last year my hill had the earliest opening ever, November 7th. This year, the first day was Dec 3rd, almost a month later than the previous year. When your sport seasons runs only from half of November, December, January, February, and half of March, losing an entire month or two weeks is a really big deal. Thankfully their money making times are Christmas vacation, President's Day, and MLK Day. Most people don't expect to be doing this stuff when it's 40s or 30s outside and we haven't had snow. But they need it to look like winter before Christmas to pull in big numbers. People really under-estimate the ability to make snow. Alpine Valley has two 400hp diesel powered water pumps and over 100 snow guns. The absolute worst thing that can happen to a ski hill, at least around Chicago, is rain in Christmas, President's Day, and MLK. Hopefully this season turns around and we get some cold, there's talk of only being open monday and tuesday this week because of the warm and trying to save the base. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta build that base up north so I'm not disappointed. In winters like I and others are expecting this to be (98-99), there is no building a sustained snow-pack that works it's way south into/thru the lower 48. You just get random regional storms and "come-n-go" type of snow cover. So, I'm not expecting nor hoping for the northern tier to "get theirs first". Unfortunately, this is a winter where it's grab what you can, when you can so I'll have to remain disappointed if SWMI continues to get whiffed by this potential as well. Besides, the northern tier has had several above avg snowfall winters in the last 5 yrs. I'd be fine with that Euro that gives me a couple inches and enough cold to keep it around a while. Would be nice if it at least felt like the holidays some time in the next 3 wks. 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...

It shows an elongated area of low pressure with two separate lows. One in MN and another in TX eventually merging and forming a strong low right over Chicago.

Oct 27 the closed low was over the southwest with a dip around Minnesota, GEM image shows the opposite this time around with the southern energy never closing off and the closed low over MN.

Niko Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 Jaster...stay tuned! NOAA's: Todays 4pm package It is looking increasing likely our dry spell will come to an end late Friday-Saturday. Good consensus with the upper level low over the Great Basin this afternoon dropping south and taking residence off the Baja California coast early next week, and then getting booted off to the northeast/phasing with the northern stream energy. Thus, looks like sub-tropical Pacific moisture will be surging north through the Mississippi River Valley on Friday as cyclogenesis occurs across the Midwest. Issue right now, is we may be looking at two surface waves tracking through, as there is multiple upper waves to interact. Too far out to get specific, as wind and snow could also be in play on the backside for the Weekend if the Euro verifies. 1 1 Quote Snowfall for Winter 2023 -24 for Metro Detroit Area Oct 2023: 0.2" AN Nov 2023: 2.2" AN Dec 2023: 0.5" BN Insane!

whatitdo Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 @jaster220 @westMJim @Stacsh -- Potential for strong low moving through Great Lakes Fri-Sun -- Models have been hinting at a stronger low taking aim on the Great Lakes for late week into the weekend for several days now. Today`s models continue that trend. A deepening plains low is expected by Friday evening which will then move through the Great Lakes over the weekend. Too early to nail down details with all the usual caveats applying here which a phasing system this far out in the forecast. The models have been consistent on some sort of phasing though so confidence is increasing in rain...snow and wind over the weekend. As it stands now it appears rain will spread into the area on Friday, transition to rain and snow on Saturday and then into lake effect snow on Sunday. At this point it appears that we will be on the warmer side of the system with somewhat limited chances for a heavier swath of snow. West Michigan`s better chance for snow will be in the lake effect behind the system. That said...much can change at this range in the forecast and it likely will. Bottom line...stay tuned to later forecasts as we watch this system for next weekend. There isn`t much sensible weather until we get to that part of the forecast anyway. What is it specifically about the upcoming system next weekend that makes lake effect snow a potential for us? It won't verify though.

westMJim Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 It only reached 32 here at my house. At this time it looks like the official high for Grand Rapids today will be 31 so this winter will not be in the top ten for the latest day of staying at or below 32 at Grand Rapids. As for snow fall Grand Rapids remains at just 0.4" total for the season so far. Grand Rapids is still on track for have one of the latest winter seasons before getting 1" of total snow fall. Going back to 1950 only two winter seasons have gotten this late before getting 1" of snow fall 1998 and 1999. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how far to the northwest the low tracks there could be a chance of a west to northwest flow and that could bring some lake effect. Should know more as we get closer to the weekend. Here at Grand Rapids the total snow fall so far has only been 0.4" this is well below average and we are falling more so every day. At Grand Rapids we are nearing 10" below average at this time.

(I'm trying to jinx myself) Well, the first thing going our way is climo. We will be deep enough into an actual winter month vs just the shoulder season. Presuming a phased storm there should be at least seasonally cold air in play along with favorable saturation in the dendritic growth layer. The odds of a good back-side hit increase even further the stronger the SLP. Low baro really increases lift, especially if the storm is still strengthening as it moves off to the NE.

Minny_Weather Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 GFS now has the SLP stalling over Sioux Falls, which is actually exactly what I need for highest totals. Now it just needs to stay like that for 6 days lol 1 1 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

bud2380 Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 The GFS has 3 storms in a week that all target the dakotas and Minnesota. It’s going to show 2-3 feet of snow on this run for large areas. I’m just happy it is showing active weather. Gotta think with snow in place the baroclinic zone will dip further south and alter the storm track some. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinton Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 18z ICON ejects a small wave over C. Neb but hold the main energy back over the Rockies. Where the main wave goes after that is the question. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
