Indystorm Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Surprised to find I had liquid rain most of the morning here with a puddle in my lawn. Now the Mt. Comfort airport is reporting 32 degrees and I have little icicles starting to form on my redbud tree branches. Winds starting to pick up from the north as well. Supposed to get 2-4 inches of snow from precip in the second batch later today if forecast is correct. Indpls concerned about flash freeze on wet surfaces tonight with a lot of events happening around the area today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRegionRat Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Still snowing at respectable rate. Not sure how much life this band of snow has left. Heading out to lunch. Will have a great view of the Lake. Looking forward to some LES tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushing a 1/4 inch of ice. These winds tonight are really going to be a concern with the amount of ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UMB WX Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Nice 5" event for most AWT and of course a few locals went over that and with the wind I imagine there is measuring issues slant sticking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoboy645 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Got about 4-5" overall from this storm. Considering I was supposed to get 2" I consider this storm a success. MKX is saying 6 down by Madison and 8-12" by the border and over towards Mineral Point and Grant County. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Was outside and it's difficult to come up with good measurements with all the drifting. Seems like somewhere around 4" but I will see if it's similar to nearby reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Significant mesolow influence toward the second half of its lifecycle, too. Seems to now max out over Porter, but with so many cards on the table I’d be hesitant to place a bet on “ground zero”. General spread the wealth looks likely, with some interesting lollipop potential in NWI. Agreed. There are times when the mesolows keep it farther west, so it's basically wait and see. The idea of it eventually coming back west still looks good, but there may be some wobbling around before a more definitive move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwohweather Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Of course the WAA made it surge north and west. It always does and that's why I thought NW Ohio was in such a good spot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northward track helped a bit but I believe yesterday's trough dig, which helped trigger the surging WAA, really made the difference out here. Brought the mix line north of Dayton to about Piqua and resulted in fantastic rates in areas further north. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwx Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 got about 5.5"-6" in downtown Madison. A family member northwest of town got 6.2" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 The LES could have extreme ratios with how cold it is and the favorable overlay of omega in the dgz. Hard to say exactly but I wouldn't be surprised at 30:1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The updated AFD mentions that they've bumped snow totals up a bit and that the system is slightly further north and west of guidance. If I have this already, then yes i think i end up with 7".

Ottawa Blizzard Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Definitely heavier snow in Toronto than I was expecting, or dared to hope for. Thinking 4" might be doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
