Local authorities and private businesses can do whatever they want. This was just lifting the state mandate. If Best Buy says you have to wear a mask they still have that right.
Not trying to pick a fight, but why didn't you do this before Covid? This goes for anyone saying it is such a great idea. Masks have been around for a long time but suddenly they have become essential?
26.6" so far at CMH. 6.1" ahead of normal so far. Not entirely sure what normal is for CMH but it seems to me they will be very close either side of normal when the snow year finishes.
You average a lot more than me, but cut that deficit in half and that is where I will be. I would be happy at this point to make it to 50% of average since it would be an amazing comeback in February/March to an overall bad season.
My brother in Caldwell (SE Ohio) measured 9.5" this morning. Nice little surprise for them. WTOD normally kills most snow over there but this time the cold and suppression helped bring a nice snow to that part of the state.
LES has been alternating between light and moderate/heavy all day. No way of measuring when my yard is either bare grass or a drift. Looking forward to more this evening and overnight.
Still waiting on the turnaround of this side of Lake Michigan. Even the UP is hurting for snow. Looks like this week and next might at least make a dent in the deficit.
I can almost match you. I just put my plow on Sunday. I have shoveled 1 time all year. Sad this is I probably average at least double your yearly snowfall.
You just described LES fairly well. The fluff factor is something most people outside the lakes don't really comprehend. The nearly 80" I average in a normal year here is not like Iowa getting 80" in a year. Look at WeatherBo. He gets 200"+ but depth never gets anywhere near that.
