This could definitely be a nice stretch of winter like many of us have been craving. Some high ratio snows would be nice compared to the "warm tongue" of death slush crap we've been getting.
Deform might try and do something during the day tomorrow. Other than that I think I'm calling this one finished. About 7" total fell but with poor ratios, melting and compaction, I will probably wake up to around 5" on the ground again.
I'll end up around 7" for the month of January. December was definitely a much better month but still ending on a high note. It's nice to not be 20" in the hole on an average season for once.
I measured 5” this morning north of plain city. Had about an hour or two of snow and now sleet. Looks like I might avoid pure rain before going to snow. I think 2-3 is possible on the back end of this because ratios should improve.
There's something going on with the Delaware county borders. First the NWS snow map had a 4" difference at the border, and now the HRRR back that up with some very defined temp contours. lol
edit: why is the pic so small
I'm still baffled that CLE and ILN didn't update some of their counties to a WSW. They have my county in a warning but are leaving some areas near mine that are forecast to get more in an advisory for 3-5.
This could still evolve in a few different ways so I went with a pretty broad 5"-8" range from a bit south of I-70 and onward north in my twitter forecast.
ILN must really hate Delaware county. They’ve got their 4-6 up against CLE’s 8-12 through 24 hours. I’m kinda shocked that they only have have an advisory for 3-5 outside of these counties:
If you look reaaaaally close you can see the WFO borders lol. I'm surprised that ILN left Delaware county and that CLE left their southern counties out of their warning.
Since it seems like ohio folks around I-70 will switch over to rain for a few hours after getting 3-5 inches of snow, I wonder if a decent about of that will melt before going back to snow.
