Regarding the chicken debate, among the 4 places we have in Sandusky, I would rate them (from best to worst): Chick-fil-a (although I think they have slipped a bit recently), Lee's, Cane's, KFC

The models keep edging the track of the low farther east. I'm thinking flooding may be a bigger hazard tomorrow in Ohio than severe, maybe the counties near the WV and PA borders could get some severe action.

Tried the place out today after all the recommendations. Agree that it's good but pricey. Cracker Barrel is generally my go to place for breakfast - don't see myself converting to SBPH. 3 pancakes cost $10 (nothing else). At CB for the same price I can get 3 bigger pancakes as well as 2 eggs and 2 strips of bacon.

Looks like everyone in the subforum has eaten there. I live 4 miles away and haven't been (although I did eat there when it was a Perkins).

Yeah, I thought it would get darker too. I mean, it was dark, the street lights came on. But I thought the sky would go completely dark. As soon as it went total you could already see the sky brightening off to the southwest. I wonder if it would have been darker if the high clouds wouldn't have been around.

Yeah my county went up 3 categories (from general thunder to enhanced) in 1 outlook. Don't know that I've ever seen that.

8.1" total for the season here. I don't know how I could give it anything but an F.

This cloudy winter just continues on. It is almost getting comical how it manages to stay overcast when the general setup would seem to favor sunshine. Crazy to see places like Duluth hitting 50 while we are stuck in the low 30's down here.

Managed to flip to snow long enough for a couple tenths here. Pushes us past 5" on the season!

Appreciate your thoughts! Thanks!

Yeah the models always seem to overpredict lake enhancement this far west. It always seems to develop over Lorain/Medina then moves east from there. Not holding out high hopes for that band coming out of SE Michigan but we'll see. I always love reading your posts on the long range outlook. Any chance you'll have a new one up soon? The 12z GFS looks about as brutal as it gets. I know I shouldn't put much stock in the 384 hr. GFS but given the state of the MJO and the AO/NAO it certainly looks believable.

Looks like just under 2" here. Should be the final total. Surprised CLE hasn't killed the WSW for Erie/Huron yet.

Got about 1.2" here. More than I expected.

Line was pretty meh coming through here. Probably barely hit 40 mph. Crazy lightning though.

Had a severe thunderstorm warning for my area with 80mph destructive winds and 2" hail. The warning came blaring over my cellphone but no sirens sounded. The warning specifically mentioned my town so I herded the wife and dog to the basement in case a tree decided to come down on the house. Fortunately the worst of the storm looks like it passed just north of me. Currently under a Flash Flood Warning.
