  1. Probably a mistake to jinx this one but this is looking like an overperformer for here.  Already closing in on 2".  That band that went through Erie and Huron counties is delivering the goods.  Hopefully it holds together for you guys out east.  Nice to finally be on the scoreboard for the season.

  2. This "wet" stretch of weather has been a dud locally.  We've had a little over a tenth of an inch (total since Sunday).  Looks like south and east of I-71 has been the jackpot zone.  Still some chances today but after that it looks like it could be a while before it rains again.

    Hot one today in the Eastern Lakes. The high reached 93 degrees at Erie, 1 degree shy of the record set in 2005 & 1936. Cleveland officially topped off at 92 degrees, 2 shy of the record set in 1936. However, it reached 95 degrees at Burke Lakefront Airport. May have been a record if the official station was downtown as in 1936. A stout southerly, downsloping flow brought some of the warmest temperatures to the lakefront. Certainly, not cooler by the lake today!

    Speaking of Cleveland, yesterday was the 21st straight day with a low temp at or above 65, setting a new record.  Will be interesting to see how long they can stretch this as there are no lows below 65 in the forecast for the next 7 days.

  5. I'll give this winter a C for my area.  Not a great winter for snow (around 20") but a lot better than the pathetic 8" total from last winter.  One good thing was that what snow came down stayed on the ground for a while, unlike the past few.

    If I were grading based on the winters I grew up with in the 70's, this winter would probably get an F.  I've had to adjust my grading scale over the years, otherwise just about every winter would get an F.

    I would feel pretty confident in Northern Ohio for this one. Looks like a solid 6-12” in that main swath

    I wish I could be as confident as you are.  Certainly there is big time potential here but plenty that can go wrong.  Last few GFS runs have been pretty good but I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

  7. Picked up another 1.2" today.  We're slowly grinding our way to a decent snowpack, looks like around 3" on the ground.

     

    Saw something you guys out east aren't going to be happy with, Lake Erie looked like all ice as far out as you could see out from Huron.  That surprised me a little, I didn't think it had really been that cold.

  8. Picked up about 1.5" with the overnight and this morning's snow.  The line of snow showers that came through around 10 AM was very impressive, even better than the line that gave us the snow squall warning a few weeks ago.  Visibility at peak was probably 1/8 mile and we got 1" in maybe 15 minutes.

     

    Looks like the Sunday night/Monday system has gone south on us (literally).  Never really had great expectations for this but was hoping we could score a 1-3"/2-4" type event out of it.  Even that looks overly optimistic at this point.  Hopefully we get more chances later in the month.
