Here is the storm total snow forecast from this afternoon through 7 PM Thursday (so just this ongoing event)...it was a big jump from prior forecasts, but still too low in the Toledo area and I suspect will be too low in locations downwind of Lake Erie from Sandusky points east. Coming up on an inch of snow, heaviest still off to the northwest. Initial signs of the first bit of lake enhancement near Cleveland on radar. 

Correct. I finished with 4” here in Toledo. Heck of a surprise and a terrible commute home. Anyone without 4WD was struggling

The traffic maps and cameras did not look pleasant.

This must be like 1/4 mile visibility, 1" per hour at downtown Cleveland now

Eh it’s kinda fun if you have a truck with good tires. But haha folks in a Honda Civic were not enjoying their time

Definitely an overachiever, between 10-11" on my deck and still snowing moderately.   Going to be some big totals if we can hold on to some moisture through this afternoon.

What an event so far... measured 10" and the radar looks great.  Really heavy snow within the stronger bands. Looks like the 422 corridor is locked in again.

Had 6.4” at home at 7:15am, probably about 7” at the office in Brooklyn Hts and still in and out of heavy, fluffy snow. Great event, generally overachieving across the board. Another few hours through the early afternoon where activity should remain intense before it diminishes from west to east into this evenings 

[NEOH]

Heavy snow most of the morning. You can see it starting to wind down west to east on radar. Pines are getting buried.

Got a little over 3" here but really difficult to measure with the blowing and drifting.

[dta1984]

There's definitely some drifting, but I came up with 15" from several measurements. Still lightly snowing   Pure powder, quite the storm!

Here in Chesterland, I believe at least 15” fell as of now with 3’ drifts against the front of my house.  Easily the heaviest snow here since 12/2020!!
