  1. 40/30 Imby. Not a disaster but not good. When do temps fall below freezing again.... Tomorrow afternoon?
  2. Well, this weekend is looking rather balmy and wet. We should be able to maintain a decent snowpack though. Shoveled a path in the yard for our dog and noticed the ground was wet underneath the snow... Not frozen at all. Considering how cold it has been just goes to show how well snow insulates.
  3. CLE still mentioning all snow to the north over the weekend... But still leave the door open for mixing. Not sure why they are so bullish. Was reading in the NE forum that the short waves haven't been sampled. Perhaps that has something to do with it. Seems like it would take a big shift South the remain all snow. The one caveat is that the lake is ice covered. Tomorrow's model runs should bring clarity.
  4. 4.8" from round two, and daily total of 7.8". Depth ranges from 19" - 21" in the yard. What a week. Trends for this weekend are not looking that great. CLE's mentions the NE flow locking in the cold around the lakeshore but unless we see a shift south in the models I'm not sold on that.
  5. Yeah, should be one last heavy burst... If it can maintain we should close in on 5" for the second round, and 8" on the the day. Unreal.
  6. CLE was very specific about when and why the advisory was issued in the afd update.. I'm guessing someone read them the riot act about forecasting.
  7. Mod to heavy snow falling in Chagrin. This stuff will pile up quickly.
  8. Last nights snow was very easy to measure. It definitely wasn't fluff but ratio's had to be higher than 11:1. We just have to get used to adding 6-12" to CLE's annual total to account for poor measuring. I think the biggest problem is that CLE is located just a couple hundred yards from the runway at CLE.
  9. Picked up 3.0" last night. Much more than I expected. We'll see what the snow later tonight brings.
  10. Looks like an inch or two tonight and again tomorrow night. Nice refresher. Weekend storm is still in question but lots of potential. The snow in my yard is settling and I noticed the ground is soft beneath the snow. Not sure if that is do to the deep snowpack or what... strange considering we had a solid freeze before the snow cover.
  11. The band finally pushed west. It's dumping in Chagrin. Huge flake size. Wish we could get one of these huron connected bands to stay put for a few hours. We've easily eclipsed the 12" mark. Probably closing in on 14"+ with the fluff snow from this morning.
  12. Yeah, I'd like to know where that spotter is located. 5" is completely inaccurate. Granted I'm on the far eastern edge of south russell but the totals should have been similar.
  13. Definitely one of the better storms we've had in quite some time. As DTA mentioned, the heavy snow consistency will have some staying power... much more so than 15" of powder. I have solid 17" - 19" snowpack. The mix last night compacted it a few inches down. Still snowing in Chagrin. The band out west looks healthly and should drop another inch or two as it swings east.
  14. It will be interesting to see what CLE reports. I noticed they listed a snow depth of 1" in the climate report. Clearly they aren't paying attention.
  15. There was a 1/2 of crust in the snow when I did the driveway this morning. Looked at the radar and it definitely mixed from midnight to 2am. My total is right around 11". I would have expected more last night but ratio's were very low. Powdery lake enhanced snow coming down now. Don't think it will add up to much. Still a great storm.
  16. We must have had some rain here overnight. There's an odd pock marked appearance to the snow.Temp spiked to 32.4 around midnight.
  17. Temp still 31 here. Shoudn't be too long before it starts to drop. There will be a lull but I'm pretty sure it will pick back up again as the snow comes in from the NW, along with lake enhancement developing. I'd imagine the shifting winds on the lake have pushed the ice around enough to open up.
  18. I bet we do. Winds out of the NNE seem to always produce the "green blob". And your area seems to jackpot from it as it transitions east out this way. My call of 10-12" was a complete BS guess. Might actually work out though, or perhaps a little low.
  19. You should have stayed home... but glad to hear you made it back to athens. Yep, euro seems like it is slow to catch on to trends, but doesn't vary too much once it does. Consistency seems to be the key.
  20. 31/31 IMBY just a little south of you. Hopefully we can hold on to all snow. I noticed the heavier returns to the west/southwest. Each time they move over flake size increases along with intensity. Keep waiting for the mix to move in but not so. Winds are out of the east... have to wonder if that is keeping the cold air locked in place. Just measure over 19" on my deck. The surprise LES the other day made a nice base.
  21. Good to hear. Keep that junk down south.
  22. No doubt... radar looks great. Temp just jumped to 31. Not sure how much more we will climb. Looks like a mostly snow event... perhaps a brief mix but not much. As Trent mentioned, this is some of the heaviest snow we've had in quite some time. It just seems so much more substantial than fluff. Huge flakes and heavy snow right now. Good tiimes...
  23. Just noticed that CLE reported 4.4" in the evening climate report. Not sure but that seems awfully low based on obs and radar.
  24. Awesome storm so far. Snowing heavily again. The dry slot was short lived and the radar looks great. If this keeps up I wouldn't be surprised to see double digits by midnight. Looks like we are approaching a period where mixing might take place... but radar would indicate that is still well to the south... not sure it will make it this far north but you never know,
  25. Just dumping out there. Will be closing in on 5.5" soon. This isn't hard to measure either. Hopefully CLE can get an accurate measurement of cement. Don't want to jinx anything... but wondering if we don't stay all snow, with perhaps a brief period of mixing. Temp is stuck at 29/28 IMBY. Radar doesn't look great to the southwest but it keeps redeveloping just south here.
