Recommended Posts

Per NOAA:

 The NAM and regional GEM are attempting to
set up a band Friday night impacting the central sections (M-59
corridor to I-69) which will have to be watched closely for
localized higher snowfall amounts.

Per NOAA:

Model soundings show some subtle moistening through 12Z
tomorrow/Christmas morning. This late trend is much more juicy with
the liquid equivalent. The HRRR has also been showing a trend for
more QPF overnight, with the HRRR soundings now resolving a
favorable frontal inversion structure between 700-600mb. 
Light snow will develop across the region late tonight and persist
through the evening hours of Christmas Day as an upper level trough
of low pressure is slow to move out of the central Great Lakes. Snow
accumulations of 2 to 3 inches will be likely over far eastern
sections.

Cold afternoon south of Memphis, TN. 35 and partly cloudy, tomorrow looks similar. Morning low may dip into the upper teens. Brown grass, but better than wearing shorts like I do many years.

Great to see those SR models that were west end up verifying. Looks like the perfect Santa scene for yby on Christmas day. Still not sure if that's going to hurt my cause or improve them since I cannot remember a time when LES streamers were ongoing while a synoptic snow shield headed N on your side of the state just a few counties away.

Interesting that they have another minor SLP reflected on this map:

As I came into town this evening, there was some light snow falling and dusting up the ground. Just enough to add to the festive feel.

Yes, they did a good job on predicting a westward movement. The heaviest snow will remain east of my area, but, man, ever so close to get the real doozy stuff. Anyhow, snow has started already and  it looks very interesting for tomorrow. Tbh, a couple of inches is looking like a possibility.❄️

Already down to 4.6 on my weather station and the forecast low was 7. Apparently not supposed to drop off much further though as they have the phrase "steady temperature" in the wording.

On a side note, we have a new development going up to the north of us a couple of blocks and so everything is now exposed dirt vs corn fields like normal. It wasn't noticeable during the snowfall yesterday, but all that wind kicked up so much dirt that the snow all has a very ugly noticeable brown tint to it here and there was even some dust that covered the top of our Ring doorbell.

Merry Christmas to everyone!

Its a Winter Wonderland here in SEMI today w 2.1 inches in the Macomb area and 1.4" for Detroit so far. Totals are not done yet, as the snow will continue all day and into early evening.

Temp attm is a frigid 19F w light snow.

Per NOAA:

PREV DISCUSSION...
Issued at 419 AM EST Fri Dec 25 2020

DISCUSSION...

A White Christmas is underway for much of Southeast Michigan this
morning as the westernmost expanse of the system tracking over the
eastern Great Lakes clips the area. Specifically, northeasterly
system-relative flow has activated isentropic ascent along the
elevated frontal slope positioned overhead at about 500 to 700 mb
while deformation forcing contributes to ascent as well. The
elevated frontal zone reorients over the course of the day today as
the 500mb closed low tracks east along the Ohio River, effectively
pivoting the region of ascent and light snow over the eastern CWA
over the next 12 to 15 hours or so.

NOAA:
UPDATE...

Southeast Michigan remains squarely within the arcing deformation
axis late this morning, this ascent manifesting within the cyclonic
northern expanse of the closed mid level circulation now ejecting
through the lower Ohio valley. Solid period of moist isentropic
ascent at 700-500 mb within easterly flow proved quite efficient
overnight in generating a respectible response, but will fade with
time going forward as reorientation of the upper height field forces
a steady backing of mid level flow to northerly.
As low level flow slowly backs to westerly,
some degree of downstream expansion of ongoing activity tucked along
the lake Michigan shoreline remains a possibility - centered this
evening/early tonight (21z-03z). This will afford those areas
generally between the I-94 and I-69 corridors a secondary window for
meaningful accumulation, albeit as a more transient/localized
opportunity.

Merry Christmas everybody. Unfortunately there was an intentional explosion in downtown Nashville this morning. I was born there and still have a lot of a family so that’s sad to see. I don’t believe there’s anyone hurt so that’s good.

Currently light to moderate snow w temps near 20F. Did not go out to check accumulations, but from just eye balling it, I am guessing over 3inches. I will go out and measure later. I am also getting blowing snow as well. Winds are quite gusty.

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas. Just in time for Christmas Grand Rapids received its inch of snow fall and thus gave Grand Rapids a white Christmas. So as of now Grand Rapids official December snow fall total is 1.2" and the total for the season is now at 1.6" That is still 23.8" below average for this time of the year. It looks like there will be a rain/snow mix for the next two systems in our area so we should end December above average in the temperature department and well below average in the snow fall department. At the current time the temperature is 23 with some very light snow falling at times.

So far..Macomb has picked up 3" and still counting. Radar looks good. This snowevent here could end as a 4+incher, which is terrific. Leaning towards 3.5", but later on tanite, LM will provide the goods as the westerlies kick in and my area could be in the path of some LES.

Looking like lukewarm variance and boredom is the rule here the next 10 days for the time being. I'm learning slowly that not every year is "gonna be that year" to a lot of folks and I'm sure I gave that image to some as well.

I guess what I'm saying is that sometimes the weather just is that. Normal and weather. This could very well just end up like a normal winter and sometimes normal and boring is exactly what we need.

God bless everyone and very merry Christmas to you all.

Hope y'all did have a Merry Christmas, I surely did. And because my fam on the east side was hosting, I got in on the surprise white Christmas over there in SEMI (Saginaw Cnty). Had on/off snow falling all day with the burst of westerly flow LES mentioned above hitting later after dark. Was coming down moderately as in "a virtual snow globe" when heading back. Must've been 2" around that region and still snowing nicely. Freeway was snow-covered so got my first true winter driving conditions of the season. Managed to score a bit more here in Marshall I see, as SHSN was intermittent til about 7:15 this evening. Looks like 1/2" total, so my hunch of 2" not happening ended up correct. Still, considering how mild it was just a day ago (46F at midnight 12/24) this was certainly much better than just brown & grey. Did some looking around at reports from the LES event and looks like IWX's area will take the prize with 15" totals in Berrien Cnty. Snagged this nice photo from where I used to live in S. Bend as a reminder of what a real storm looks like. You know, the kind where plows are required and such:

Yesterdays official high of 53 (I had a high of 54 here at my house) was the 3rd warmest day of record at Grand Rapids for any December 23rd The high tied 1979 and 1957 for 3rd place. The record high of 60 was recorded in 2015 and in 2nd place is a high of 57 set 1982 and 1941. There was around a 0.25” of rain fall late yesterday and overnight. Currently light snow if falling but so far just a dusting here at my house. The current temperature is 22.

Apparently, something in common with hot days before Christmas, and arctic outbreaks that treats S. Bend really, really well. This record event posting was later increased. Awaiting the final numbers on their snowiest Christmas ever.

Had on/off snow falling all day with the burst of westerly flow LES mentioned above hitting later after dark. Was coming down moderately as in "a virtual snow globe" when heading back. Must've been 2" around that region and still snowing nicely. Freeway was snow-covered so got my first true winter driving conditions of the season. Managed to score a bit more here in Marshall I see, as SHSN was intermittent til about 7:15 this evening. Looks like 1/2" total, so my hunch of 2" not happening ended up correct. Still, considering how mild it was just a day ago (46F at midnight 12/24) this was certainly much better than just brown & grey. Did some looking around at reports from the LES event and looks like IWX's area will take the prize with 15" totals in Berrien Cnty. Snagged this nice photo from where I used to live in S. Bend as a reminder of what a real storm looks like. You know, the kind where plows are required and such:

Meanwhile here in GR officially 1.6” of snow thus year.   We are the snow hole.  

Unless Grand Rapids records 3.7" before midnight on the 31st GR will set a new record low for the start of any winter season. the current record is 5.3" set in the 1905/06 winter season. If GR indeed gets to that point we would be well on the way to a record low total seasonal snow fall

Unless the Canadian is correct, it’s almost assured we will not get there.

Ultimate Screw Zone by deficit perhaps, but Chicago and others have had even less actual snowfall to date.

Unless you live at the airport in GR, chances are you saw more snow over the past couple days. You wanna see a snow hole? Look here.
