Really happy with this storm. Definitely have over a quarter inch of ice here. It's snowing pretty hard now with these convective bursts rotating in from the east as the upper low moves overhead. Definitely wasn't worse case scenario due to sleet mixing early on and dry slot this afternoon but best winter event we seen here in a while.

Iowa City picked up a solid 4" of snow this afternoon.  I did not see a flake in Cedar Rapids.

That's about 15 inches in Iowa City this week.

That's sweet. I'm guessing you're more than half way to your seasonal average already? Glad somebody in this sub was able to score big with this event. 

Happy New Years! :)

I'm jealous lol. Those are good as a base for snowcover. How deep?

It's about 6" or so.  Even before today you could walk over the snow and not break through the crust and sink, that's how hard the top layer is.  I'd imagine it's even more impenetrable now with today's freezing rain and sleet.  

we picked up about 1/3" of sleet again this afternoon.  Not far from 2" of sleet in the past week.  Snowing pretty hard right now, looks like a good dusting so far.  Nice band moving through.
