    Any chance you were out and about this morning there? I was also worried in the evening when I saw the warm surface temps, but I saw a lot of schools closed and I saw some reports of very icy conditions. Curious to hear how bad it actually was or wasn’t. TOL never got below 34 degrees 

    When I was out main roads weren't too bad.  Most side roads I saw still had a coating of ice/slush at 10 am.

    Welp, that was interesting.

    Here in NE Ohio, everyone I know lost power bad during the straight-line wind thunderstorm that blew through in late August of last year. The forecasts showed winds gusting 50-60 mph, and we have been on edge since Thursday. Every single person I talk to says they're "done with snow and winter", and I personally detest winter weather, so we were happy that we had no snow accumulation. I should note, we had a quick 1-2 inches in an hour around 4pm Friday night before turning to rain and melting away.

    Thankfully, it's past us, so now we just get some arctic air. Overall, the local mets hype about winds didn't get *quite* as bad as we had been fearing.

    For those more seasoned in winter weather than myself, was the storm weaker than expected? Did the winds underperform in NE Ohio or was it what you guys expected?

    National Weather Service reported gusts over 60 in Cleveland and Parma. 

    Here's a link that hopefully works.

    Before things get bad here, I would suggest stopping in at Ventura's Mexican restaurant.  Welcome to T-Town!

    To each their own, but if we're talking food there are better options. If you want a margarita it could be a good option.

    Snow wise, the models are still looking good for Toledo. Hopefully we can get the first real snow blower worthy snow of the season.

    Looks like the Cleveland office isn't buying the models showing bigger snow accumulations for the Toledo area. They are going with a winter weather advisory for 1-3 inches and some ice.

    Crazy depths around Chicago. Depths gotten quite nice here in Southeast Michigan as well. East Side has the deepest snow right now. Snow depth in SE MI vary anywhere from 11 to 18". We had 15" here this morning, 14" at Detroit, 15" White Lake, 13" ann arbor, 16" bad axe, 17" Richmond.  As mentioned above the 17" snow depth in Toledo is their deepest since 1978. We however had deeper snow in 2014 & 2015.

    I am surprised the snow depth wasn't higher in 2014 in Toledo. We had 40 inches of snow and it was also the 7th coldest January on record.

    I feel at times the NWS in Cleveland neglects their I-75 Counties (Lucas, Wood, and Hancock). Seems like at times they play favorites especially in their eastern CWA.

    If this was happening in the Cleveland area right now they'd be all over it.  It's not so they don't care.  They told a local meteorologist that it needs to be 4-6 inches of snow in a 12 hours period for a winter weather advisory.
