There is still some snow left

DETROIT – The last big winter storm just grazed us on Thursday, as expected, leaving one or two spongy inches all over the area.

Scattered snow and snow showers are slowly falling and mostly cloudy skies (i.e. some of us may have occasional sunburns) will prevail during the day until scattered snow showers develop in the afternoon. .

Peaks will reach the mid-1920s (-3 degrees Celsius), with a light northwest wind of 5 to 10 mph becoming westerly winds during the afternoon; it is this westward shift that will help energize the Michigan Lake Lake snow machine. some snow showers across the state later.

Today’s sunrise is at 7:23 a.m. and today’s sunset at 6:11 p.m.

Snowfall decreases Friday night, with mostly cloudy skies hanging. Minimums in low adolescents (-11 degrees Celsius).

The skies should be partly cloudy on Saturday, with highs in the mid-20s (-3 degrees Celsius) … a good day out to play in the snow!

Announcements

Saturday Night partly cloudy, with lows at single digits (-15 to -13 degrees Celsius).

Hopefully we start our Sunday with some sun, but the sky darkens as the morning progresses. Highs, however, should reach 30s lows (0 degrees Celsius), another great day to play in the snow.

The next storm is still on its way to reach us on Sunday night.

However, the disturbance of the upper level that will generate this surface system will not cross the west coast until Saturday morning, so it will not be until then that our computer models will benefit from direct observations of our network of land balloons. (called radiosondes). Until then, I can’t really rely on any specific data.

The snow will develop, that is true – but the big question is the thermal profile of the lower atmosphere. It still seems like some of us will see a transition from snow to rain and icy rain, but whoever gets this change is still up in the air (no puns, really, those words just came out) I don’t want to know what’s going on in my head).

Announcements

But I see enough suggestions from the models to think that there will be a change for at least two-thirds of the southern part of our area, so the amounts of snow seem less impressive now, maybe a little more or less on Sunday morning. Of course, if something changes radically and we keep all the snow, the amounts of snow will increase.

And for those of you worried about another return to freezing, stop worrying. I don’t see anything resembling the temperature regime we just released over the next two weeks, which puts us in March, where Arctic explosions are even less likely.
