I'll give winter until Palm Sunday to show itself, after that I am Spring or bust. May have to cut it down by 1 1/2 - 2 inches. 0 - .5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueWaves Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 About 1" on my deck here since evening. Even pavement is nicely covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maneee Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Actually a bit impressed with this given the 18z guidance. I think we’re going hit are 1-3... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIstorm97 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Measured 0.7” at midnight. Will blow past the 40” mark for the season today. May be able to escape any breaks in the precip with more snow filling in along the southern edge at the MI/OH border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 00z UKMET increased snowfall for the GTA and the 03z RAP goes bonkers like the 00z HRRR. It’ll be interesting to see what transpires tomorrow.

MIstorm97 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 FWIW, definitely running ahead of what the HRRR has been outputting for the Detroit area. 00z run had 0” for SE Oakland County at 06z. Meanwhile, I just measured 1.0” exactly. Hopefully a sign of things to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade off I'm willing to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackstraw Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Lite white drizzle, if there is such a thing. Anyhoots, some flakes about 12 hours too late. Been the worst thing this season, if ya get some it's an agonizing long event. Like sitting in the dentists chair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baum Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I might have busted low on the grass. 2" grass and trees. 0" paved surfaces. Forgot about the Feb sun angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIstorm97 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Exactly at 2.0" as of 7am. Just need 4" in the 2nd round of this storm to reach our 3rd 6"+ storm of the season. Hopefully this will be attainable lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t discount widespread flurries through out the day tom. The real fun begins in a couple hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Actually nice flake quality with this last band. Gonna finish around 2 on non paved surfaces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherMonger Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Ended up with about 1- 1/2". Roads were crap, it's like they don't even try to keep up anymore. Wait until it is finished then send the crews out, all schools canceled for less than 2". That never happened when I was a kid, took 4"+ and even then might be a late start but school still opened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuanis Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Shutout cancel. Got less than an inch. Need Geos to move back up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowstorms Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Latest HRRR now has only 6” compared to the 13” it was showing earlier lol. The Low is bit further East this run. Haven’t checked surface OBS to confirm this change. Sometimes you can’t have nice things lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frog Town Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Here in Toledo it's way under-performing and Radar is staying very broken with all bonus snows nil until the 850 low comes through this evening. Just can win, even when dealing with everyone's sloppy seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
