Major ice storm in region last evening through this morning as low pressure center moved from lower MS Valley NE through Ohio Valley with strong southerly low level jet and moisture advection. Freezing rain began at 16.30 last eve and continued through early morning. Precip was occ moderate in intensity. Air temp remained at 30-31F during the event with a 28-29F dewpoint. Ice accretion was somewhat slow given the air temperature and precip intensity, most likely due to a very warm layer (+3-6C) above surface resulting in relatively warm precip. Almost all of the precip in the gage at obs was still liquid. The thickness of the ice layer averaged 3/8". Thousands in the area are without power (including this observer) due mostly to trees falling through power lines. Power flashes and cracking tree limbs were constant in the area from approx. 22:00 through obs. Worst icing event (and resulting damage) I have witnessed in 22 years in the area. |

Day 7 of power outage and the original scheduled 'Power restored no later than...' from Consumers and still no sign of any utility people (we have heard rumors that some of their people are in the area). Spirits somewhat lifted by warm advection and a thaw yesterday afternoon (high of 38F) that melted much of the glaze ice on trees, roofs, etc. Driveway covered with at least 1"of glaze ice remnants from overhanging trees. Birch tree branches that were resting on roof now recovering closer to their original locations. New power restoration estimate of 23:00 on the 28th. We will see... |

Mild weather came to an abrupt end yesterday afternoon as arctic front raced through area between 1300-1400. Temp. fell from 40F at 1300 to 25F at 1700. FROPA was accompanied by some light drizzle which changed to freezing drizzle by 1500 and some flurries by 1600.
Most important news of the day: our power outage finally ended yesterday at 1430 at 8 days, 14 hours thanks to the efforts of a line crew from Kentucky who have worked 16 hr/day since last Monday and through the Christmas holiday to restore power in MI following the 21-22 DEC ice storm. Our sincere thanks to them and all utility workers, our neighbors and friends who helped with logistics the past week, and hopes that all those remaining in the cold and dark will have their power back soon as well. |

Major snowstorm across area and region, the most significant in several years. After a lull yesterday morning, snow began again about 1130 and continued into the evening. Snow assoc. with FGEN and deformation forcing of intensifying low pressure center which moved from mid Mississippi valley NE into Ontario. Snowfall rate was moderate to heavy from 1300 to 1900, with 1.5" from 1800-1900. Winds turned northerly late morning and continued the remainder of day as temp fell from 28F to 21F by 1800. Snowfall difficult to measure due to blowing and drifting. (Running) event total going back to 1800 on the 4th was 14.5" with 1.10" water equiv. Light snow (lake enhanced origin) at obs. |

Light snow overnight, at obs with weak shortwave moving across region. SWE core taken this AM with a total of 4.36", which is the largest such value in memory at this location. Snow in the core was mostly granular and included remnants of pre-Christmas ice storm in lowest 2" (virtually all of the 1.07" that fell in that event was absorbed by snow cover at the time). Collectively, the core suggests that there has been little or no melting of snow pack since late DEC (soil temp has been steady between 31.5 and 32F since early JAN) and a potential major flood risk in coming weeks depending on the rate of which melting eventually occurs. |
