OHweather Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I can say with confidence we had 2" before it started getting windy. It snowed heavily for a good 20 minutes after that measurement but I can't get a good measurement now. So 2-2.5" here so far. Heard three rumbles of thunder.

Stebo Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Thunder snow!!!Those squall lines of snow were very impressive on radar. Glad to see they produced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Those squall lines of snow were very impressive on radar. Glad to see they produced.For a time we warmed a bit above freezing so for a little bit it was mainly graupel (some of the heaviest graupel I've ever seen) before going over to dendrites. In that 15 minutes we may have lost a half inch or inch of snow to the graupel, that's how hard it was coming down. Overall I'm quite satisfied with how it went here. Some 3-4" amounts showing up in east-central OH towards Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vespasian70 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Picked up nearly 4" here. The grass is completely covered. Much, much better than I ever hoped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClicheVortex2014 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Thunder snow!!! Looking at the reflectivity, I was wondering if there could be some thundersnow in there. We had a very strong gust earlier while it was snowing... I'm guessing it was around 50 MPH. That was pretty exciting. That might've been when you heard thunder, I dunno.

HighTechEE Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I always make this post each year, the 51st Annual Winter Hike is at Hocking Hills St. Park this Sat. the 16th starting at Old Man's Cave and ending at Ash Cave. http://www.heartofhocking.com/Winter_Hike_Hocking_Hills.htm Obviously it's not going to look like Jan two years ago when Ash Cave almost froze to the top for the 1st time since Jan of '78: Ok, that's what a real winter is!

buckeye Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I realize I'm jinxing the hell out of this but next week looks kind of interesting. Wave on arctic front, Monday/Tuesday which can often model stronger over time....possible clipper soon after ....and then whatever cluster gets together in the southern plains day 8-10. Maybe this time we will have an arctic high to our north rather than another low pressure system coming first and scouring out the cold. Ok that's your glass half full for the day. Best you're gonna get from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayb a little surprise for later tonight? well euro really winds the 8/9 day storm and sends it due north into northern MO. But at least we have the general set up of a cold high to the north. A direct hit now would be kiss of death anyways. yea, just looked at radar...maybe a fresh coating before it melts tomorrow lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro is the only one showing this now. 0z GFS went to a flatter solution and has stuck with it at this point. 12z GGEM went to a suppressed storm after previously agreeing with Euro. I think Euro eventually caves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 The GGEM isn't suppressed. It has no storm. Probably not gonna happen. The PAC is back in control and it will be spitting energy into the CONUS. /\ best news I've heard....considering the source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachLB Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 It's fizzled out. Nothing but a blip on the radar. Lack of moisture has killed it. I've got mood flakes right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachLB Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I know it's the GGEM lol. But that would be a nasty ice storm for parts of souther sub forum on 21st 22nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pondo1000 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Since the central Ohio crowd looks down and out on the big one the end of the week, I am officially on board for an over-performing clipper tomorrow! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Since the central Ohio crowd looks down and out on the big one the end of the week, I am officially on board for an over-performing clipper tomorrow! LOL It appears south too lol. At any rate, I never had any confidence in this one anyways. I've said from he beginning I was predicting one major storm (6"+) sometime between the beginning of and mid February. And that being it for winter. I just simply refused to allow myself to get sucked into following this one outside of 2 days. So with that said, I'm back off. Tty guys when something interesting actually happens lol.

buckeye Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Remember when the clipper was gonna give 3-4 inches? I never trust snow that isn't associated with a visible closed contour on the surface map. Had one fleeting moment of interest in this and never followed it since. Congrats KY and TN.

Guest ovweather Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Kind of an overachiever down here in Louisville. 4 to 5 inches has fallen with the current system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I am seriously feeling bad for the Ohio crew. SDF picked up 3.7" this morning, more than CMH has all winter. Now, they're under a Winter Storm Watch for 4-6 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
