ILN has a WS Warning now in a skinny row of counties 5mi south of MBY, and I have the exact same snow totals of 4" or more in the forecast! Close to 1" of new snow here on the SE side of Dayton.

Visibility down to about 1/2 mile, everything white again (anything exposed to the sun melted the last snow over the past week or so), maybe 1/2" per hour rate. Its so rare in southern Ohio to get a snow system that every single flake sticks beginning to end (and we might get 3 or 4 in a row thru this time next week)!

First flakes are starting IMBY, ILN says 2-4" tonight, that might happen south of I-70.

Still amazing the GFS still has over a 1.5ft in southern Ohio thru next week over 2 1/2 days worth of runs up to 12z today!

Today's 12z GFS has 20 inches for KDAY the next 16 days, you can lock that in! Now more than 2ft on 06z GFS: https://www.pivotalweather.com/model.php?rh=2021020706&fh=378&dpdt=&mc=&r=us_ov&p=snku_acc&m=gfs

Last year 2019-20 I never touched my snow blower, but did some minor shoveling a couple times. This winter, haven't touched my shovel yet!

The mammoth artic blast Christmas December '83 is an excellent example, in SE Ohio in Athens Co we went below zero for 3 days down to -13F w/o a flake of snow, then 2 days later the very next spec of precip was..... ....wait for it, ....rain!

An area of stead light snow has formed tonight in the western & central parts of Ohio over the past couple hours, I've picked up about 1/3" since it started, my truck and the streets are covered up already. Looks like it may last the night stretching all the way to Lake Erie, ILN calling for up to 1" new snow, if this keeps up for like 8hrs they may have to adjust that.

After about 18 or 19 hrs its FINALLY switched back to snow IMBY, but very light.

Had 2" on when I went to bed, been raining fairly hard since, maybe a half inch of crap left on the ground full of bullet holes. Radar shows the northern half of Montgomery & Greene counties back to snow, but its not according to my buddies, still rain. chuckster you talking about the back side of the Friday system, looks like a wave forms and rides the cold wave into Sat, mood flakes for the weekend

Well dammit, you guys don't want to hear this, only after 1" of snow, it quit, and I don't know what is falling now, but it isn't snow at 30 degrees...

I went from 34 to 30 in minutes, dew pt went from 22 to 25, I have a coating on already. Steady light snow, but looks to become heavy soon. This is my station: https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KOHBELLB15 Edit: Dumping the snow now just before 9pm.

First flakes has started to fall just after 8pm on the southeast side of Dayton IMBY, and so it begins!

Well NAM is even cooler, never goes above -2C for KDAY on the 18z GFS.

For us in the Dayton to Newark I-70 line, I'm sensing an over performer, 12z and now 18z GFS does not have KDAY 850s going above 0 degrees!

I have 3 times, Jan '78, April '87, Jan '96.

LMAO! Somebody in Indiana must be getting thunder snow, if not they're about to!

Serious virga over the SW Ohio area now, hope it doesn't turn into Thunder Virga!

12z GFS for the first time doesn't have KDAY 850s going above 0 degrees! Its possible my season snow total could double by tmar morning (~9"), then most of it will be compressed or gone by evening!

pics? Lol, not one flake on the south side of Dayton.

I posted this in a thread somewhere in here a couple years ago, but can't find it, oh well here it goes again: 1. Either Jan of '67 or '68, NW corner of Athens Co, OH, we got 28" of heavy wet snow in 24hrs. When it got cold at night it froze the top 6" so hard you could walk in top of it, us kids carved out big chunks and made igloos. 2. Last week of Feb '80, again in the NW corner of Athens Co, OH, picked up 15" in five hours and it wasn't predicted (forecast was partly cloudy, chance of showers high of 38)! I got snowed in at my college studying for a test and I missed seeing as I was in my buddies dorm room, went to go home and my hand-me-down boat of a Chrysler New Yorker was a lump in the snow! 3. March '08 storm SE side of Dayton, OH, ended up with about 16" over two days. 4. Dec '04 storm, 12" in one day in Dayton no ice or sleet, 2ft of fell 1 county west of me and 31" in Liberty, IN (couple guys posted above) in that storm and 1.5" of ice 1 county SE! 5. Jan 96' tie with Jan '99, the '96 storm buried everyone in the Dayton are in all directions with a foot or more, I got about 6" IMBY for a major bust, buddy of mine's dad got 40" in Lucusville in Ross county). The '99 storm was a foot of snow with almost 2" of ice/sleet pilled on top that ruined it. PS - The Blizzard of '78 was a miss for SE Ohio at the time, warmed up with heavy rain over night, finished with wind blown fluff after the cold wave that day (we already had about 2ft of compressed glacier on the ground at the time from dozens of snows through that winter).

First synoptic snow today IMBY since the first part of Dec I think! My daughter lives in Lebanon about 25 miles south of me has almost at half in down already.

Only 6 posts so far for the entire month of Jan , (well now 7) First week of Feb, a foot and a half to two feet of eye candy for an I-71 Screamer! Lock it in!

Yep pretty bad with Gulf coast states gets more snow in one storm than we've had all winter season! Parts of Spain which rarely gets snow got almost 2ft! https://wgntv.com/news/unusual-snow-kills-4-brings-much-of-spain-to-a-standstill/

I noticed that as well, got to 43 IMBY on the SE side of Dayton, yesterday they were talking highs near 60 for SW Ohio. Line of heavy rain or maybe a storm has formed along I-75.
