Obviously it's not going to change over, but surprised to see snowflakes mixing in with the pouring rain here lol.

It's probably not, but I'm 36, and this is the worst winter with regards to lack of cold and snow that I can ever remember. As a 3 year run, it's gotta be one of the worst runs ever.

Our first snow cover actually survived the rain.  Snowing nicely again.   At least we'll go into the next couple cold days with a snow cover.  No idea what the totals will be from this when all is said and done....but probably 2-4 and very localized.

And now nothing on the horizon for at least 15 days. Sure that could change but as of now nothing. At least it was something to track for a couple days..

Finally switched to light rain here after maybe 3" give or take. May be enough to survive any light rain we get until it goes to snow later

Was fun while it lasted...now raining in Newark!!

Hey, we made it to over 10 pages at least lol

Downpouring rain in coshocton now. Still hanging on at my place in mt vernon

Snowing like hell in coshocton

Snowing here in Howard near Mt Vernon. Temp has dropped from 36 to 32. Latest HRRR went a little further south again. I'm either in the sweet spot or the biggest disappointment spot lol

No man's land....otoh, if trends continue that white stripe might be the sweet spot 

Agree. That's the spot that has the opportunity to either be a soakers or the most snow from the system.

Shit, we’d take that & run these days! Whattawinter

5 inches IMBY? Will seem like a foot!!!

Too many model runs between now and then so it won’t happen.

Not really. 4? 18z, 0, 6, 12

Our best hope is with a front end thump....    our miracle Hail Mary would be just enough dynamic cooling with significant precip rates to get some respectable slop...and that's a Hail Mary.

I can't recall what winter, I think it was 13-14, but the day leading up to an overnight event, all the models kept the rain snow line about 20 miles north of the city.    When the snow wall hit it stayed snow and we picked up like 8-10" overnight, even places further south did well.  Granted that was a different set up and a different time....long long ago lol.. .but the incredibly tight rain/snow line being modeled just north of us reminds me of that.     

Not being a IMBY guy here, but I'd guess from my area (Knox County) up to 30, has maybe a 30% chance of a decent front end thump. Most models on pivotal shows some decent front end snow. But I'm not going to hold my breath, nor care. If it isn't 5" plus I just dont care lol

Nam, wrf, and rgem is trying to give just north of i70 some decent front and back end snow.

the only good thing is it doesn't appear to be a 'big dog' for anyone, even where the axis of heaviest is, it's a moderate event.  After that it's cold for a couple days and then the rain/snow line moves even further north taking out a lot of the sub.   

Sorry I know it's petty, but it's hard not to be in the misery loves company camp when all you've had is misery....   

#bring_on_the_torch

Gonna disagree. 8" is definitely a big dog here now. I'd venture to say 6" should be considered a big dog here now.

And just like that, any hope for i70 corridor is gone. 

Snowed good for a couple hours. Rain snow and sleet mix now.

Sickening seeing heavy snow for the first time really this winter knowing it's gonna turn to rain after a couple inches. So sick of winters altogether. Haven't had a really good storm since 2010 imo. None that I can remember.

You know our winters have become sad pieces of crap when we're happy over an inch of snow lol.

I went from freezing rain to pounding sleet. Covered the roadways pretty quickly.

Quickly turned to rain here thankfully 

Getting a heavy downpour of freezing rain at 30° here. 3 counties NW looks to be snow.

Over or under for 12" of snow at CMH this winter? Literally nothing to track, unless you enjoy rain. Horrible so far.

Wanted to bring this back and give Buckeye a second chance to reanswer lol.
