Thanks, hopefully the Sub can take advantage of a cooler January and get several storms to roll through.

Coagulations to all of you well to the south of me here in West Michigan on the next snow event.

Some January 2nd weather history for southern Lower Michigan. 876: Record highs are set for the third day in a row at Lansing and Detroit as the temperature reaches 62 degrees at both locations. 1999: A powerful winter storm gets underway with heavy snow and high winds shutting down travel for the next several days. 1999, a blizzard hit southeast Michigan and continued into the early morning hours of the 3rd. Detroit Metro Airport received 11.3 inches, Flint had 8.5 inches and Tri Cities Airport in Freeland received 13.2 inches. Between 10 and 15 inches of snow fell over many areas south of M-59, and between 5 to 13 inches across the Saginaw Valley and Thumb regions.

Radar is showing a nice band of snow moving east for central and southern Iowa.

6z Euro closely resembles the thoughts of the EAX write up this morning freezing rain over to snow. Other models have trended to more of a sleet over to snow for many of us on here but the Euro has remained insistent on freezing rain. Grizz shared a great map above. Here's snowfall using 10:1 ratios which will fit this type of storm better than Kuchera as of now.
