34⁰ light to moderate snow. A dusting in sheltered areas.

It is bone dry here. Although the radar is lit up like it's snowing everywhere. It must be a lot of dry air because of the cold air behind the front. Looking like we're going to get nada here

12/2: T .003" zr and 5-6 sleet pellets 12/5: 3.0 12/8: 3.8 1/25: 4.3 (1.8 snow / 2.5 sleet) 1/31: 2.5 2/4: .5 3/12: .4 Total:14.5

0.3"-ish. Not counting it. 0.25" looks ugly

That's a crazy stat

3/12: 0.8" T: 22.7"

This got me thinking... we haven't had a HWW in a while in St. Joseph County. Turns out it's been the first one issued here since November of 2019!

Magnolia 33F Heavy snow 2 hrs.

nearly 55 degree drop since yesterday afternoon. looks like just about an inch otg

Next winter will be for your yard, while it mostly rains here. Ninos aren't what they used to be for coastal areas. Prefer Ninas lol.

12/5: 1.5" 12/14: 1" 1/1: 0.3" 1/17: 0.1" 1/25: 9.5" (5.5 snow/4 sleet est.) 2/6: 0.3" 2/22: 3.3" 3/2: 2.0" 3/12: 1.0" **Total: 19"**

nice writeup from Milwaukee NWS Here are a few things to keep an eye on over the next couple days. The first thing to watch are the surface and 850 mb low tracks. Given the expected transition from rain to mixed precip to very heavy snow over a fairly short distance with this deepening low, any wobble north/south with the low tracks would have a significant impact on local precip types/amounts. As mentioned already, while the surface low track has remained fairly steady, the 850 mb low has been trending northward. Another trend to watch is that models have been slower with the exit of this system, lingering into at least Monday morning with the moderate to heavy snow and blowing snow. This would bring the higher impacts into the Monday morning commute. Lastly, models are often on the high side with storm total liquid equivalent 2-4 days out. Given the current anomalously high storm totals for a winter storm, it will be worth watching if models start coming down with totals in the next 24-48 hours. Give the strength of this system though, liquid equivalent totals of 1-2 inches seem reasonable, maybe not upwards of 3" per 12Z deterministic models.

This is probably the most unprecedented weather event ever. It would be like if this July, DCA recorded a high of 106 one day, and an early morning high of 98 the next day, then the temps dropping to near 50 by the end of that very day.

Ended here.

12.3. Horrific winter Edited to add i am over it already. Got plant sprouting and tree pruning going on. Ready for the torch.

for those keeping score at home, here are all of the moving pieces involved with this one.

Congrats guys Take alot of pictures and videos. Love seeing places with alot of snow .

Snowing in the Bronx.

How much did you get the whole winter? I’m at close to 18” which is right at the median (few inches below mean).

DCA picked up 0.1" today after an early morning high of 78°. Yesterday's high there was 86°.

Congrats man. Below 50% of climo here again. Insane drought out this way.

Had some flurries about an hour ago. Certainly chilly out with a led grey overcast overhead but brightening to the north

Congrats to those that got snow. We didn't again out here. On to next years disaster.

Dude, after what you went through you not only picked a great storm to chase again but you did it right (except for one thing). It sounds like you (and from your posts during) were patient and waited for them/it to come to you which is always the best way IMO. ESPECIALLY in the Lakes/OH Valley where we get more 60 mph screaming F3's than most places. Your one mistake was getting on 65. NEVER GET ON 65 when theres bad weather lol. 65 will kill you and I'm serious. It's a Semi UFC ring as far as I'm concerned. It's bad enough on a sunny day. I seldom chase anymore because about 10 years ago my buddy and I were about killed when a Honda Pilot with Harbor Freight flashing lights plastered on it and 3 Iphones hanging out the windows going 90 mph blew through a 4 way stop sign and missed us by inches. Our chase turned from the storm to them and when we caught them we put the fear of God into them. They said they were "pros" and I told them so is this baseball bat. After that nope. You have more chances of getting killed by another chaser than a storm nowadays. Study, prep, pick, sit, wait. Thats my method now if I do lol. Thanx for the vid and hope you exorcised some demons

Sun came up. And so did the temps. Sunny 45.8 degrees. Winds at 13 with gusts to 22.
