I hate it too. Luckily a few meteorologists in Indy are snow lovers 

We're under an inch for the year I think, and they're on air complaining about a dusting. It's stupid. They do it to cause anxiety, I swear.

For me, there's about 5 weeks left before I start hoping for warmth vs. snow.   When it comes to March, go '08 or go home.  

I'm already over this winter just from looking at the models. Ready for spring. Get this crap winter and crap 2021 behind us.

Ben Gelber: "unfortunately we're gonna get some snow. Fortunately we aren't gonna get much but unfortunately it'll come at rush hour and could cause traffic issues"

This is why I hate TV weather. They overplay dustings then constantly make stupid comments like "oh this sucks its gonna snow a little bit"

Drives me nuts.

Bring on spring. Sick of this winter already. What's our total for the year? Gotta be under 2", right? You know it's bad when Tennessee is beating you faily handedly in snow totals and the ski resorts are having to shut down.

Good times in here. Would y'all want an Ohio severe thread, or is there no interest?

Can but major severe outbreaks here is about as rare as a winter storm lol

65 Wednesday. From the looks of it, this winter is in the books. So barring severe outbreak, I guess we shall talk to you all in a few short months lol.

Average snow, average temps. Average winter.

Agree. Too much credit given to the Christmas snow. If not for that this winter would be a D+ for me. Instead it's a C. Lol. I mean we only had 2 decent snows all winter. Is that our standard now just because the snow stuck around? Only 3 systems to track in a 3 month period and 2 of them panning out and the other a historical bust... C winter and that's only cause of Christmas and longevity of snow lasting.

Further did cmh even reach its average for snowfall on the winter?

Well not much on the radar aside the little passage tomorrow. Then we have to go 8-9 days out, with GFS showing a 975mb low. Something to at least track as its shown up on 3 straight runs.

Idk about that. I don't know how one system could depress the SE ridge (that will inevitably show up) for the whole month of march. By mid month we should be looking at close to 50 for highs. That would be an epic cold outbreak to keep us that cold for the whole month.

He blocked me years ago for doubting him for giving storm and snow calls like 10 days out.

NAM looks like it'd be a good snow, but for some reason doesn't translate to accumulations

18z runs where better. NAM gave a significant area of Ohio 4-5" if we could legitimately get that much, idk, but maybe it overperforms

One moves NW and becomes a sleet fest, the next one goes SE and becomes a snoozefest. Central Ohio may very well be the worst location that receives snow, to actually get decent snow. Sure, we FINALLY had a storm near Christmas, and we had the one 2 weeks ago, but other than that this winter has sucked. Not as bad as last 2 years, but still isn't anything grand. Snow pack is useless imo if you aren't adding to it. My grade as of now is a C and if not for the Christmas Eve storm, it'd be a D.

Also, that NAM run barely gives anyone in Ohio anything, despite the look.  

Agree. Despite the look it only drops a couple inches of snow. But last storm took a nw jig, maybe this does the same. It's funny though, as models had shown this second one being the stronger of the two, yet its significantly weaker.

Well finally turned to snow here at about midnight. Looks like I have about an hr or so.

Just now, jbcmh81 said:

Does it?  The airport was reporting only 0.5" through 5pm, and that presumably included the first wave.  It was definitely sleeting long before 5pm.

Yep. Guess it does.

As for Wed Night/Thursday, it's garbage on models currently too. Need another NW shift.

I'm a hurricane guy, winter is not my hobby. Can you explain in layman terms what is happening to allow such a bust in central Ohio? Too warm of air? 

Yep. Layer of warmth in upper atmosphere. ILN reported a layer of 37° at 6000ft.

I wonder if Columbus even officially reports an inch from both waves combined.  Just an absolute historic bust.

Seen someone say sleet goes onto the snow totals, so I'd guess it will. 

Just now, pondo1000 said:

Doesn’t matter I guess if you are north with this one. Need to be west.

Even west haven't done well unless far west

Heavy sleet here with the flood returns.

NAM this Thursday.   Fool me once.....

Oddly enough, it doesn't amount to much on the clown maps

Looks like the sleet has made it all the way up to Akron. This is an outrage.

FYI I was wrong lol. I dont think anyone seen this though.

Can confirm sleet in Wooster and Canton. Funny how the areas thatll get snow are the area cle didn't put in warning lol..

Radar is completely useless. No accuracy on radar currently. Is anyone getting snow?
