Surprise tornadoes in Kansas yesterday. Constant forecast flip flopping in fall & winter. Subpar hurricane intensity forecasts in 2025. The Trump DOGE cuts have had a long lasting effect. Compare Monday’s weather balloon releases to one year ago. The data gaps are immense.

A few strong to severe thunderstorms are possible Thursday night, mainly in northern Lower Michigan. Any severe storms could produce damaging wind gusts and heavy rain. However, large hail and a tornado or two can not be ruled out. #miwx

#MeteorSighting: A fireball was observed by witnesses in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, and the Canadian province of Ontario on the night of March 23. The meteor was first detected over the Michigan town of Hope. It traveled northeast and disintegrated above Saginaw Bay. At its peak, the fireball was 40 times brighter than the planet Venus. 🔗 go.nasa.gov/4bGgIhF Eyewitness accounts supplied by the American Meteor Society

If possible, we need your ice measurements…just watch your step and be cautious of measuring on trees near powerlines.

No words to describe the experience of seeing an overhead corona aurora at THE SAME TIME as a total lunar eclipse--this happened last night on our aurora workshop. Crazy experience. The aurora was so bright and the snow glowed green under the blood moon.

Rain will spread across the area this morning, eventually switching to a rain/snow mix by this afternoon. Highest amounts of 1-3” are expected across parts of the eastern U.P. and Tip of the Mitt, leading to slippery roads and localized hazardous travel into this evening.

For #TimelapseTuesday, @NOAA's #GOESEast 🛰️ took advantage of mainly clear skies to capture 8 hours of lake ice moving on the #GreatLakes from Feb. 1. More than 50% of the Great Lakes were covered in ice as of Sunday, with shallow Lake Erie having over 95% coverage. #GOES19

Here's a beautiful look at (most of) the Mitten State! Note the ice cover across the Straits, Whitefish Bay, and along many lakeshores. Current Great Lakes ice cover is at 51%, which is close to 20% higher than average to start February. Image from 1/31/26 curtesy NASA Worldview.

Recent arctic cold and lighter winds have led to a jump in Great Lakes ice cover (43.3% as of yesterday) and now well above the historical average. This can be important for winter forecasting as ice cover can limit lake effect snow. More cold days and increasing ice is expected!

Absolutely stunning footage of last night’s geomagnetic storm as seen from the ISS. Russian cosmonaut Sergey Kud-Sverchkov said it was like flying straight through them.
