Yes sir! What a beautiful pattern this is. I hope you get some snows too from next weeks storm that comes outta the central part of the country.

Just realized I haven't used my snowblower since early December 2022, 3+ calender years and counting. Pretty sad for northen minnesota and hard to believe given the record snow of 22-23 for central and NE Minnesota.

Wow what a snow blitz! Looks like it will keep coming.

The snow has finally stopped. Its a true Winter Wonderland outside. Temps are brutal. Currently at 8F w below zero wcf. I will go and take measurement later and take pics as well. My pl received a very good unexpected snowfall between 6-8" In the meantime more snows are coming..... NOAA: Hazardous Weather Outlook National Weather Service Detroit/Pontiac MI 441 AM EST Thu Jan 15 2026 MIZ047-048-053-054-060>063-068>070-075-076-082-083-160945- Midland-Bay-Saginaw-Tuscola-Shiawassee-Genesee-Lapeer-St. Clair- Livingston-Oakland-Macomb-Washtenaw-Wayne-Lenawee-Monroe- 441 AM EST Thu Jan 15 2026 This hazardous weather outlook is for southeast Michigan. .DAY ONE...Today and Tonight Sub-zero wind chills expected this morning. Lake effect snow showers taper off this afternoon. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday A series of clipper systems bring much colder air and accumulating snow potential to SE Michigan Friday into the weekend. 1 to 3 inches of snow expected with Friday`s system, with additional accumulations likely Saturday. Sub-zero wind chills will be possible again early next week. After a brief period of ridging tonight, the next low anchors over the northern Great Lakes Friday-Saturday. The low itself will be responsible for two waves of accumulating snow Friday and again Saturday. For the Friday system, forecast soundings show top-down saturation occurring between roughly 06z-09z Friday morning as broad isentropic ascent envelopes the area. Thermal profiles start off with an isothermal layer at least partially intersecting the dendritic growth zone, leading to efficient snowfall ratios through most of the morning. Another strong vort max then engages the elevated frontal zone and saturated dgz before differential thermal advection causes profiles to shift toward a warmer, more convective structure. The wave establishes deeper ascent and moisture, causing in uptick in snowfall rates around mid-day. Model snow accumulation fields are likely underdone given their the reliance on the snow ratio-qpf formula, in which both parameters are running too low in the guidance. Opted to go with a pattern recognition approach to the accumulation forecast instead, equating to a widespread 1 to 3 inches across SE Michigan. As we saw yesterday, any change in speed to the upper wave or frontal boundary could push totals toward advisory levels. Regardless of amounts, the cold airmass will allow snow to accumulate on roadways leading to a slippery morning commute Friday. The synoptic snow comes to an end with the departure of the wave late Friday afternoon. That said, leftover cyclonic flow leaves plenty of mesoscale opportunity for lake enhanced snow showers Friday night into Saturday as column saturation holds on. One feature of interest is a trough that pivots around the upper Great Lakes low, drawing a strong plume of cold advection toward SE Michigan Saturday morning. 850mb temperatures will have potential to drop nearly 10 deg C (from roughly -10 C to -20 C) during the day as a result. This could establish a low level convergence component across SE Michigan as the cold air wraps into the southern half of the cwa around Lake Michigan. Models are again lean on QPF and snowfall amounts, but another few inches are in reach Saturday. Very cold temperatures arrive for early next week with a stretch of lows in the single digits and sub-zero wind chills. Highs in the teens to low 20s. As of now, Monday-Wednesday look to have the coldest temperatures as 850mb temperatures drop to -25 C (currently around -15 C). Additional clipper systems are likely into next week, with a similar flavor to the current snowfall pattern. Additional snow accumulations are likely. The strongest of these systems attm is a compact PV anomaly that reaches the Great Lakes region Monday.

I know we have a lone Canadien on here near Ottawa or TOR??? Nevertheless, the radar looks beautiful as the SLP tracks into NW NY and pumping up some enhanced moisture coming off of Lake Ontario??
