jaster220 Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 GRR updates. Expansion north and now going 3-6+ (not bad) ย .UPDATE... Issued at 1036 AM EST Mon Jan 25 2021 We are expanding the Winter Weather Advisory this morning for the system tonight into Tuesday up to a line from Muskegon to Mt. Pleasant. There is a good consensus of models and ensembles, including some new 12z data just coming in, to support the expansion to the north a bit. Overall, the system is delayed a tad in getting started this evening. This is fairly typical, and is likely due to drier air that erodes the leading edge of the precipitation initially. Once the stronger forcing arrives however and the low level dry air is overcome, we will see it snow pretty good. These better snows will be centered just before and right through the morning rush hour on Tuesday morning. The consensus is that much of the area between I-96 and I-94 will be the axis of the heaviest snowfall, where 3-6 inches looks likely. This will taper off a little to the northern edge of the new advisory area to roughly 2-4 inches, and then tapering off quickly north of that area. Due to the nature of the fgen bands coming through, we could see some locally higher amounts where they may sit a little longer. We do think that there will be some blowing snow around as temperatures will be below freezing, and wind gusts of 20-30 mph will be likely. 4 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season)ย ย Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13)ย ย Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9ย Dec: 7.5ย Jan: 31.7 Feb:ย 6.0 Mar: 4.3ย Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2"ย (Harrison):ย 2023-24 = 53.1"ย Avg = 45.0"ย (KDTW):ย 2022-23 = 33.5"ย ย 2021-22 = 35.6"ย ย ย ย Avg = 49.7"ย (KRMY):ย 2020-21 = 36.2"ย ย 2019-20 = 48.0"ย ย 2018-19 =ย 56.1"ย ย 2017-18 =ย 68.3"ย ย ย 2016-17 =ย 52"ย ย ย 2015-16 =ย 57.4"ย ย ย 2014-15 =ย 55.3"ย ย ย 2013-14 =ย 100.6"ย (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!)ย ย 2012-13 =ย 47.2"ย ย ย 2011-12 =ย 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...
