Did KIND drop their Winter Storm Watch ? I'm not seeing it anymore.

They did not. 

Expecting more Winter Storm Watches to be issued later tonight into the overnight.

Can someone explain the difference between the two snow maps above??  I guess I always thought the Kuchera was I higher ratio version, but the difference above seems to be more than that.  

If I recall correctly, the Kuchera takes into account the actual air temperatures.

Anyone mind posting the Euro snow map for this storm.  Offices seem to be riding this more than what the GFS and others are showing.  Thanks!

10:1.

Kuchera.

Interesting tidbit from the NWS in Cleveland in their afternoon AFD.

Will let this speak for itself.

This morning here in downtown. 1/2" to 1" here of the fluffy type snow. 

One thing also to keep in mind too is that while we are nickel and diming with the snowfall right now, that will aid in building that snowpack. Also, it could easily cause the temperatures to be be colder than what is shown on the forecast models.

The gfs is starting to make me very concerned. This is a potentially very serious pattern shaping up. Hopefully the gfs is over doing the severe cold

I’m hearing 5” in Bowling Green? Insane storm

Yes. I posted a tweet earlier confirming the 5" in BG.

Near Picture Perfect here downtown tonight.  About 2-3" here downtown.

If this was happening in the Cleveland area right now they'd be all over it.  It's not so they don't care.  They told a local meteorologist that it needs to be 4-6 inches of snow in a 12 hours period for a winter weather advisory. 

 

Wow. That would qualify as a low end Winter Storm Warning...

Why CLE wouldn't issue any advisory for the Toledo area is beyond me!  We've had two inches in two hours and have accidents everywhere.  We also have another 2 to go.  On top of that we will have a legit flash freeze overnight with 30-40 mph winds and an absolutely treacherous morning commute.  It's like having 7/10 indicators for tornadoes and not issuing a watch.  Almost borderline negligent.  If it's not happening in Cleveland proper or the snowbelt, they won't mention it.   

I feel at times the NWS in Cleveland neglects their I-75 Counties (Lucas, Wood, and Hancock). Seems like at times they play favorites especially in their eastern CWA.

Accidents as well here in NW Ohio.
