I'm going with 17" here, average of several measurements. Decent amount of blowing and drifting now.

What a storm! We traveled home yesterday from VA so got to experience the snow down there as well. I'll get a measurement shortly, I see there's a 19" measurement from South Russell, with most between 12-15". Still moderate snow falling.

It's not often we get favorable trends this close to the beginning. Looking like a great storm with the potential to be similar to one of the December storms last year.

I like where we sit to the NW side. The bleeding to the E seems to have halted. Ukie came west, and Cmc and GFS still give a good storm. We're very close to being big storm, just need a slight bump W.

I would not be too concerned with off runs. 0z suite looked great. GFS was a monster crush job. It's good to see the Euro continue to come W. We need a stronger secondary piece to pull the storm a bit to the W. From CLE Models trends over the last 48 hours have been tot he north and west with the track of the surface low, bringing better chances for snow to the region. The evolution of this system will be impacted by a secondary piece of energy moving through the northwest flow into the back of the trough on Sunday night. Depending on the strength of this secondary piece of energy, this can tend to pull the system westward, lending confidence to the recent trends we have seen in the deterministic models over the last few cycles.

Agreed! More model support other than the gfs would be nice. Though others seem to be ticking back west. I would think we would get some lake enhancement into play as well.

Looks like winds are W now keeping the current main band closer to the lake. Hopefully the turn more wnw later today.

Arw is about as good as it gets for flow over here. Long fetch + what looks like a connection to lake Michigan.

Ya didn't take much to melt that fluff. Short rangers still look pretty good for tomorrow, Rgem a hair north.

Rgem for Mon-Tues looks pretty similar to yesterday's event.

Had another 1/2" last night, bringing the event total to 7.5". Nice overachiever.

3" additional since this afternoon. Running total at 7". Looks like the band is drifting south at the moment.

A bit over 4" here. After a brief let up, the snow is picking back up. Looks like the band is wobbling south a bit.

Same here. Radar looks decent, looks like a band trying to form from the west side through Chagrin.

Their map seems reasonable, the low end amounts will be nice. It'll be good to get the ground covered again. Cle mentions the possibility of the band getting hung up along the shore....so hoping that doesn't happen (although that would be good for @WHEATCENT). Looks like @OHweather had a part in that discussion write up!

Merry Christmas all! What a dud of a December. Hoping for some measurable snow next week to avoid a shutout at least.

The majority of accumulating snow ended up E of Painesville and into Ashtabula county last night. Looks like a boring stretch. I'm glad we at least are at 12" from Nov. Could be worse.. Bummer the lake is cooling off though.

Had thundersnow last night around 10pm with the Huron band. The snowfall was very intense, but must not have lasted too long. 2.5" additional is what fell overnight.

I've got 4" that fell yesterday and today. Currently getting light snow, small flakes.

The Canadian has been showing a snowy upcoming weekend into next week for Northern Ohio the past few runs. As far as I can tell...it's on it's own though...

Same here, looks like 4-5" in Chardon.

Congrats man, that's awesome to hear! It's got to be extremely exciting to be able to get a job at the nws in your home area.

Winter storm watch, Cle seems pretty bullish.

Should be a good quick hitting event. Cle mentions a 280 flow, not quite ideal for out here (I think 290 is our ideal), but still should get some accumulation as the band shifts.

4" total, less in the grass, and minimal on paved surfaces. Nice start to the season.
