When it cleared off late last evening and the temp fell to 37, I got a bit nervous(garden), but it then never fell any lower and remained warmer than what was forecast by the nws and all locals.  The nws is only calling for patchy frost tonight with a low of 35.

 

I don't know if we saw any flurries early this morning.  I was sleeping when the radar returns passed over us.

I slept through it too, although I did see on Twitter that Mount Mercy (not far from where I live) saw snow this morning.  :axe:

Had a rain/snow mix here this morning when I woke up around 8 am and lasted for at least 30 minutes.   Then had to sit outside and watch my kids soccer game at 9 where it started again for a little bit.  Kids were distracted with the snow then playing soccer.  Funny.

Snow in Columbus

Nice! I'd heard a few rumors on Facebook of actual snowflakes mixing in across parts of Ohoo, but was skeptical. Wonder if it's more grauple than true snow with air temps above 40.

I am legit surprised that the snow made it down to parts of Chicago and NW Indiana. I don't even think the NAM had anything getting that far, it was by far the most aggressive with the snow though, probably the only win it will have this winter :lol:

 

A few runs here and there had snow to about I-39 or maybe a touch ESE of there but I was surprised to see it at ORD

Right on. My mom said she saw it too. No dice here...just some miserable really cold liquid here this morning.
