Winter Storm Watch - N Houghton & Keweenaw Counties

[mezz]

NWS Mqt has issued a Winter Storm Watch for Thursday 8pm to Friday afternoon. Snowfall of 7-12" possible with wind gusts of 45 mph expected. Looking at the model runs, both Euro & GFS are in agreement, we cannot get a break here.

NWS upgraded to a Winter Storm Warning, expected snowfall remains unchanged as well as winds. Snowfall rates could be 1-2" per hour. To add further insult to injury, Sun into Monday's storm looks to be even more intense with the possibility of a Blizzard. Crap!
For what it's worth, snowfall to date is 302.75" this is 35" more than last year at the same time which of was 267.75". Last years season total was 315.25" & by the looks of it we will surpass that & last year was the third snowiest on record.

Records are meant to be broken...LOL. Looking at some of the reports, we might have a chance to break a 1-day record snowfall down here in Green Bay. Record is 24", March 1, 1888.

these snow fall totals I'm seeing are hard to believe. 31 in. in sheboygan? 28 plus anywhere in Fon du lac. 27 in. washington. co.
Even though its useless at this point,, like the great George Constanza said,,, "you wanna get nuts,,, lets get nuts"

We are getting pummeled right now. Started at 3 am and has not let up since. Winds are crazy, visibility is less than an eighth of a mile. Schools were canceled, NMU closed and plowing is minimal. So far we've had 9"+ and no sign of letting up. It doesn't look like I've plowed after 3 hours, will get back to it tomorrow morning as you can't see and can't keep up with it. Hopefully a break on Saturday to get ready for Round 3 which is coming Sunday night into Monday and it's supposed to be worse. This is nuts
