    Driveway had been shoveled twice

    Went to bed around 10, thought it was winding down, wake up and it's still +SN. Wow, what a storm. Fudge it, let's go for a foot.
  3. snowstormcanuck
    YYZ at 6.7". Back edge of synoptic now crossing Lake Huron. We'll make a run at 10" but probably come a bit short.
  4. snowstormcanuck
    Ottawa Blizzard probably frolicking like nobody's business.
  5. snowstormcanuck
    YYZ reporting 5.1" since noon. So we've been averaging 1"/hr rates but at its fiercest it was coming down over 2 per hour.
  6. snowstormcanuck
    It's incredible out there. YYZ back down to 3/4 SM visibility in SN. Well, the LES certainly over-performed on this. We should easily coast into the 7-10" range when all is said and done. Probably the best storm since 2013-14.
  7. snowstormcanuck
    We're rocking in the west end now. 3/4 SM visibility stuff. Nice sized flakes (as would be expected with LES). I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised by this event.
  8. snowstormcanuck
    EC upgraded us to a warning for 6-8 based on synoptic and les. Given upstream reports, the les is going to have to drive this warning. Not confident. I'll take the under.

    YYZ officially reporting 4" on the nose from last night. Honestly, it may be tough to beat that tomorrow. This ul energy sort of blows its load over the western lakes, and we're left with the scraps as it dissolves into the descending PV. Could get some lake enhancement though early on. I'd go with 3-6" for tomorrow. The more contribution from Lake Ontario, the closer we get to the high end of that.

    Tim, my man...not much. Just making the most of the cards I'm dealt. I mean, I'd love that 2 footer, but yeah, you know. So I'll have to be content with pocketing these nickels and dimes.

    lol

    Just shoveled 3-3.5" of the fluffiest 20-25:1 ratio snow as a whirl of dendrites tumbled to the ground. What a joy. And we'll at least match that tomorrow. I may never get my 2' blizzard, but clipper livin' ain't bad.
  13. snowstormcanuck
    This is probably going to over-perform here. Bit of a lake convergence zone setting up out ahead of the main synoptic thrust. I'm going with 2 to maybe 3" by morning, especially near Lake Ontario.
  14. snowstormcanuck
    Well then 4-8" it is. La la lock it in.
  15. snowstormcanuck
    12z RGEM with a 1000mb on the WI/IL line. Fairly similar to the 12z NAM, a bit weaker and further south.
  16. snowstormcanuck
    With a track north of us, we'll be lucky to get half that. The northern models are quickly diving the PV southward and phasing, causing the slp to curl northward. EURO/UKIE are slower with that feature, and thus more favourable to us (although they've been inching north too). I'd say 3-4" for us right now, and hope to god it doesn't trend any further north.
  17. snowstormcanuck
    Overall consistency from the models since Monday regarding this storm is actually pretty remarkable. Also getting excited about a pretty strong LES signal (although details yet to be pinned down). Still 96+ hours out, but so far looking good for our first 6"+ storm of the season.

    I love how this demonstrates so vividly the Great Lakes' ability to modify arctic air.
  19. snowstormcanuck
    Back from Bermuda. It's like I'm walking on the face of the moon by comparison.
  20. snowstormcanuck
    Looks good for the first siggy snow since November. I'd prelim call for 4-6" imby, but it's pretty obvious looking at the dynamics involved that the max band is going to drop 1'+, probably south of here. In Bermuda this weekend, so the only thing I'll be shovelling is mixed drinks into my gut.
  21. snowstormcanuck
    Congrats Jhamps.
  22. snowstormcanuck
    Back in the day when I really cared about snow, I'd be in full meltdown mode right now. Today, just enjoying day after day of easy commutes to work.
  23. snowstormcanuck
    I was going to say, I think for most of us futility is out of the question due to November's production. However, it'll be interesting to see how things unfold with regard to the DJF records.
  24. snowstormcanuck
    Imby....I'll take the under.
  25. snowstormcanuck
    Needs to trend south. We have a bit of cold dammed in, but as progged now, might not be enough to save us from mix/rain.
