Not quite an inch here, but it's nice inch. It's a heavy, fairly wet snow that fell lightly enough to still be fluffy.

[AppsRunner]

Looks like one or one and a half inches here. Everything is covered, including trees, which is a first. Probably have a couple hours left of on and off snow showers though

[SpartyOn]

Few tenths of an inch here. Just need some rain now to wash the copious amounts of salt off the roads.

Nice snowglobe morning. The snow falling so gently, a nice refresher snow for sure. We dont have quite an inch yet but probably 0.7-0.8", and looking at radar we should surpass an inch.

Only a few tenths? Wow the RUC wasnt kidding with Wayne/Oakland border as a cutoff in snowfall. When did you get home?

[AppsRunner]

Lol can someone explain how a public, city school close for this snow? BG's population in 30k and the roads are slushy.. Lol

Closing in on an inch of sugar and theres look to be some heavier returns moving in for the first time of the event! The sugary snow is dusted on trees and the old snowbase is making for a very pretty winter morning!

1.7" total here. Looks like a range from 1.5-2.0" from local spotters. My initial call of 1-2" wasn't too bad after all.

Yep, not deep but very "Currier and Ives kind of morning" in historic Marshall..an even inch for MBY..

Some "jackpot" amounts getting close to 3" per the LSRs in central Indiana. An over performer to a degree.

[michsnowfreak]

Had 1.2" of snow with 0.09" water equivalent. Snowpack has around 0.4" water in it now.

^I love how you always manage to get good pictures even with events like this

0.9" here. Another penny for the pathetic piggy bank that is this winter.

[SchaumburgStormer]

Ended up with an inch, and had a nice little crust of freezing drizzle on top of it.

[snowstormcanuck]

Snowing lightly and steadily the last couple of hours. Nary a flake has stuck to the ground.

I'm sorry but It's just comical now For being one of the top 3 snow weenies in this sub-forum I admire how you've handled your emotions on the board this winter and in the past in hard times.

Still liking the weather pimps old ball state professors thoughts on a window of winter later this month in to march for the whole sub-forum to have some fun before the severe weenies take over the board. I can't imagine YYZ's mostly terrible luck rules the whole winter.

Ended up with roughly 0.5" on the Eastside.

Thanks for the sympathy. What's made this ****show of a winter more tolerable than 2009-10 (when I verbalized my anger more) is that we're all in this together. Although I'm starting to get a little pissed off at how DTW once again is managing to blow me out of the water.

Measured 1.75" in Bowling Green this morning, and I doubt anything accumulated afterwards. Nice little event I suppose.

We have made it above 20" with smoke and mirrors because the longest snow has been on the ground is currently.

Yup 5 days in a row has been the longest weve had 1"+ snowcover. DTW has seen 21.6" of snow but just 18 days with 1"+ snow on the ground (tomorrow obviously will be 19, wondering if Thursday will be 20 or a washed away trace). Still, compared to much of the region, DTW isnt doing bad at all.

I too feel bad for Toronto, somethings gotta give and it will. Coincidences and bad luck can only go so far.
