We just got home, snow stick on my deck is just below 9". I'll do a better measurement in the morning. The interstates are a mess as you would expect, but the worst stretch was definitely once we got on 422 from 480..

HRR runs have a near ideal band out this way.

Chances of some snow around Thanksgiving are looking pretty good. SW to WNW wind. From Cle morning discussion "By late Wednesday evening into the early overnight hours, the cold front will have departed to the east, leaving much of the region under the influence of a surface trough. With 850mb temperatures quickly dropping into the -8 to -10C range, this will mark the beginning of an increasing threat of lake effect snow. Initially Wednesday night, a sustained southwest flow across Lake Erie should isolate the heaviest band north over Lake Erie and have minimal impacts to the snowbelt minus possibly along the immediate lakeshore. By Thursday morning however, the upper level trough axis shifts east of the area and overall flow across the lake gains a more WNW wind component. This is expected to result in lake effect snow gradually shifting inland across the primary snowbelt. As this happens, ample moisture combined with deepening EQL and moderate lake induced instability should result in areas of heavy lake effect snow through Thursday night. Overall structure of the lake effect should be multi-bands with embedded heavier bands. Confidence continues to increase that there will be accumulating snow across portions of the snowbelt through Thanksgiving, but exact snowfall totals, locations, and timing remain uncertain. Given the increased travel surrounding the holiday, please keep up to date with the latest forecast and plan accordingly"

Great start to the season! My snow stick on my deck was at 7" total when I left for work this morning.

About an inch here overnight. Looks like the Huron band is getting organized now.

Flipped to snow here about an hour ago. Already a covering on the grass.

Lake effect rain season is here, definitely looking forward to next month when we can start tracking some snow. A lot of trees are already bare, we're not far away.

Looks like 83" imby last winter. Definitely was a good winter, especially after the past few terrible ones.

We definitely needed the rain, it's been a dry few weeks. Fall is definitely in full swing with leaves starting to drop. Temps have been pleasant and next week looks beautiful!

Incredibly wet month, I'm guessing we're getting pretty close to a foot by now? Parts of my property have only dried out for a short stretch in early June, otherwise it's been pretty damp.

Sure was! Looks like dry weather and 50s starting late this coming weekend. Not ideal, but I'll definitely take the dry streak.

Same, it's been a good (not great) winter and we were due after the past few clunkers. Bring on an early spring.

5" here since yesterday morning. Quite a long duration light snow. Definitely working our way towards a normal ish winter finally.

Just eyeballing this morning, looks to be 5-6" additional since my 3" measurement yesterday afternoon. Roads were still a mess this morning with the wind and light snow still falling. Overachiever

3" so far today. Currently not snowing, but looks like some lake enhancement picks up later this afternoon.

WSW now for 4-7" additional

Snow here now as well, big flakes. Pretty consistent agreement in the models of around 6" .

It's been a very scenic morning, right at 2" before it switched over to drizzle. Good start, hopefully tomorrow delivers as well.

Picked up 1.5" of snow this afternoon. Drizzling right now. Wonder if we'll get some thawing of the lake ice with the slightly warmer temps this week?

Same here, and looks like we may do it again tomorrow. Pretty crazy story about the Lake ice near Buffalo: https://www.wivb.com/news/local-news/buffalo/ship-stuck-in-ice-off-lake-erie-shoreline-in-buffalo/

5.75" here with 3" of that coming in a few hours yesterday with the Huron band. Nice to hit an event on the high end. It's been a great January, been a while since we have had a normal ish January.

33 and snow this morning. Wondering if it will stay snow or if we will flip to rain this morning? It's actually starting to stick to pavement again. Interesting quote from CLE regarding tomorrow - Sun night "The Sunday forecast is a bit sneaky with the snow potential across Northeast Ohio, especially near/east of Cleveland. After aa lull in snow tonight, a system developing southeast of ther egion will allow for some synoptic moisture to try and creep back into the forecast area and bring some light snow to the eastern half of the forecast area. Then, a favorable lake effect snow setup will start to emerge Sunday afternoon with NNW flow across Lakes Huron and Erie. This should allow for lake effect snow to push into Northeast Ohio with a couple inches of snowj ust east of the Cleveland metro given the favorable fetch. This wvent will be limited by the lack of deep moisture across the region. However, the sfc-5000 ft layer over the lake will be very unstable with good low level lift, so this has the potential to uptick as a sneaky shallow lake effect event before this events starts to pivot east, as mentioned in the short term" period below."

Definitely a great start to January. I have recorded 21" the first 8 days. Pretty good stretch that looks to continue, especially after the season total of each of the last 2 winters being around 50"

Hopefully we can make it to early next week, sounds like another good LE setup with the next cold push.

Was just reading through the CLE discussion and looks like several LES chances this coming week. https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=CLE&issuedby=CLE&product=AFD&format=CI&version=1&glossary=1&highlight=off
