Jan 30th-February 1st 2026 Arctic Blast/ULL Snow OBS Thread.

End total for me was 12" and got down to -1. Overall an incredible event which was by far my largest snow in the 7 years I've been here. -

14.4. 8" on the dot. Rates have been lackluster most of the day. I assume I need some NW winds to get some mountain terrain involved. -

They have been by 3-4 times salting my road this morning. Each time it turns slushy for 15 min then straight back white. I think they are just building up a skating rink at this point. -

Really starting to stack up now. Probably 7" or more. Temp is 14.7. Probably another 4-6 easily on the way. -

18.9. Got several hours of sleep during the slower rates. I'd guess 5" out there. Still snowing pretty well. -

26.5 here and down to a heavy glitter falling. The flow has shifted and should enhance southern areas for the next few hours. When the pivot begins moisture will back up against the mountains again. I'd guess 3" here, yard has that bumpy look right before it smooths out. -

This thing hasn't even started yet. Latest HRRR lays it DOWN across ETN tonight. Temps crashing from 20s down into the teens with a deform band just rocking. Accumulations don't start until 6-9pm. That's always been the case. at least the last few model runs- 782 replies
