@southmiwx Ah okay, I didn’t see it, but that’s what my son was thinking it was… regardless, 47 is still pretty strong!
@southmiwx I’m in Chelsea (5 miles north of downtown) and have ash falling from the sky - assumed it was a bonfire nearby. 😳
Saw this on Facebook tonight. Some people forgot the rule that April Fools pranks are supposed to be funny. Even if a meteorologist can quickly see its fake, the general public can easily think its real and cause panic. Do NOT mess with public safety.
@southmiwx Love all that you guys do to keep us informed!
Thanks for the report and photos! This is a good example of how difficult it is to measure snow precisely, and drifting snow is not even a factor today. Here at NWS Grand Rapids, we measure snow on a flat, white board that sits in the grass.
@NWSGrandRapids Trained Spotter Report: 8:40am Measured total snow accumulation since 3:30am EDT (start time estimated by radar). WMIWX Headquarters - US 131 and 22 Mile (Kent/Montcalm/Newaygo border). Paved driveway: 1.90" Vehicle Roof: 2.50" Grassy areas: 3.00"

@southmiwx @NWSDetroit Have you ever considered using Radar Omega for your projects? It's really good! It has a lot more stuff than GREarth.
@southmiwx Appreciate it. Thank you so much for the info!
@ScottTGL1 @southmiwx Thank you both! I appreciate your help!
