Fwiw (not much, probably)

You'll never guess what the new one looks like...

Ik people stay away from politics here, but this would be awful if it happened. even if nothing happens (it probably won't), I hate that our field is politicized needlessly, and this really undermines the stability of the work they do at ncar

hitting 54 today has dissolved whatever snowpack remained from Saturday. Was nice while it lasted, but will take a couple weeks of warmth before (hopefully) a return to the cold

Fwiw (not much, probably)

thinking that somewhere in the middletown to wilmington to circleville area is gonna cash w/ 7-8", just have gotta get lucky with the these bands of higher rates. 

Really coming down here now, starting to accumulate on grass/vegetation, not much on the roads yet though. Temp is just below 32f, so hopefully it starts dropping soon and we see some higher ratio stuff move in

Some of the cheapest tickets I have seen available for this Sunday. Tons of lower bowl seats for well under $200. 

bengals tickets for a game w/ low teens air temp and sd's wind chill are going for about $20 on the upper bowl, lower for 40-50. Will probably be there, thats almost too good to pass up.

Wow that clipper today trended real far south and real weak, local mets have been scrambling to drop totals, the ones who had 3-5 for the Cincy metro really caught out, looks like most will be lucky to see 2.

What, lmao. It took an act of god to delay or close CMU when I was there back in the 2000s.

We closed twice last year for cold, but never had enough snow to close for that

University delayed start until 11am, doesn't really seem like 4" would warrant that, but I guess so

Started coming down here around a half hour ago, hoping for a good 4-5 inches

-3 at home, -17 at work in Grayling with co-worker reporting he had -20F along the lowlands eastward. 

crazy what a difference a few dozen miles makes

looks like 4-6" probable here by tomorrow afternoon, the hrrr finally got with the program and came way south. 

1 here right now, still looking for our 1st below 0 low. got about 15 minutes to get it, until the sun is really up.

6z HRRR way, way north with the Wednesday system, and about 10mb deeper, faster than any other model

And not 300+ hours away, lol

#lockingitin  (its 15mb weaker and a fifth of the snow on the new runs)

Fire Up Chips! I initially started there for Meteorology but after one semester, it wasn't for me long-term. I ended up graduating with a degree in GIS tho which has a lot of overlap with the MET group.

fire up!! yeah fair, i know a lot of people who are doing a minor or double major with met and gis

only got down to 14 here, but winds stayed between 6-10mph all night. yesterday's freezing rain/drizzle event left a nice coating of ice on the roads and sidewalks, and the snow now has a nice crust of ice on it as well.

Recent arrival here, relocating from NJ to Cincinnati.  I was told there was less winter here!  5 inches Monday night, and now embedded in one of the more severe cold snaps I've experienced since 2018,  It's been some time since I've experienced more than a week when highs barely touched freezing.  

haha you should've been here last January, we had almost a foot in a 24hr span. 

Eyeing next tuesday-wednesday-thursday for the next possible system of note around here. GRR mentions a lot of uncertainty, but the west ridge being a little more amplified should allow for a sw or two to ride the ridge down to the GL area and maybe bring a couple inches of snow. Would be a nice send-off from Michigan 

EPS 24hr snowfall very cluttered in that timespan but that 2nd system, late on the 10th-11th, has been uptrending a little bit the past few runs. 

anyone know why NWS cleveland is issuing AFDs and other products for WIlmington? Been going on since Friday afternoon. staffing issue?

should be a nice early-season event for parts of IN and OH that missed out on the past weekend's big one.

temp never really got below 34 here last night for any of the flurries to stick, then a changeover to rain stopped any hopes of accumulations. Still, really fun storm to track and I wasn't really expecting much down here anyways.

Looking less likely we'll get much of anything down here in s Ohio, although the GFS and nam are stubbornly holding onto a couple inches before some rain. Looking forward to seeing 6-8 on the ground headed back north, tho.
