Another snowy morning. Might pick up another inch or so today it looks like. I'll have to look back, but this is looking to be one of the snowier November's in at least a few years.

Just got home from being out of town for the weekend and have 1.5" new snow on the deck. All rain and grass until 422 , 271 areas.

Just glancing outside, maybe 1" of snow. Definitely seems the models were having trouble with the sleet and freezing rain that fell today.

Seeing some snow reports around Columbus and out west.... definitely encouraging

32 and ice in Chardon, parking lots definitely slick. Had a few flakes mixing in earlier.

Yep same here, ice pellets started around 7. Hoping we can flip to snow. Models seemed to still look good.

Wonder if we pick up a few inches tomorrow and tomorrow night? Some of the snow maps show snow here, but some of that may be sleet or freezing rain i imagine.

Right at 2" on the deck this morning. Definitely a surprise!

Nam 3k and ARW show a decent snow through Monday. 3-4" out here, 6" a little further north. Some of that may be graupel though.

Ya definitely looking forward to next week. At the least, should have some flakes flying at times this weekend.

Does anybody know what the fv3-gfs is? Just noticed it on tropical tidbits.

Ya it was a fast process this year. Most of my leaves have fallen....still a few trees left. I'm hoping to get out Sunday and do some cleanup. Definitely some interesting looks for next weekend and the following week. Seems to be right on schedule with our first snowfall if it does happen.

For some reason I thought Cle had already implemented the replacement of lake effect warnings and advisories with winter storm products. Maybe I'm thinking of another office. Looks like snow squall warnings this year too. https://www.weather.gov/cle/news_Winter_Weather_Products_2018

The wet pattern continues for the end of the week. Reading back over last year's posts, our first snow was mid Nov., then pretty quiet until early Dec. Hopefully this year has a better Nov.

I am! Leaves are falling in a hurry now. Hope the wet pattern keeps up through winter.

Yep, same here. Definitely quite the switch to fall this week.

Colors are popping and leaves falling. Definitely not as vibrant, but still early. Great observation, we were just talking about all of the squirrels this year. They are everywhere it seems. Also noticed more black ones than I've seen in the past. Crazy temps, reminiscent of an August day. Tomorrow looks the same, and then the bottom falls out. I'm done with this heat.

Looks like the lake is running a bit above normal at 69 degrees. Hopefully the warm weather the next week or so will keep the temps up. https://www.glerl.noaa.gov/res/glcfs/glcfs.php?lake=e&ext=swt&type=N&hr=48

I've noticed the colors are definitely lacking this year. Not sure if it's just too early still or because of the dry and hot weather recently?

Same here, cant believe we're approaching fall and les season already. It's been a nice summer, not too hot (until this week lol). I changed jobs and now working in Chardon, so I'll get to see more of the northern events that miss home.

Incredible! Seems the west side got more rain the past week or so, while we missed out. Certainly has been a wet summer.

109" here for the winter. A nice change compared to the past few below avg winters. Seemed to be a pretty consistent light to mod snow year from early Dec up until the second week of Feb. Then of course a booming march, which was the highest snowfall total month at 39.75". My 5 year average from measuring (estimated ) in Newbury is at 101.2". Congrats on the job!! Though you'll miss the lake effect, I'm sure experiencing a few noreasters will be awesome. It's been great to have you in our subforum to share your forecasting and knowledge. Make sure to stop back by!

Right at 2" on the deck. Probably half of that in the yard. There were some impressive squalls earlier, especially in the northern areas

Decent lake effect band this morning. I've got .25-.5", but a definite increase in flake size and accumulation in Solon. Probably an inch here. West side appears to be doing well.

I'm going with 5". I know more fell after I left, but it has since melted from my deck.
