That was a nice finale to the LES season. Picked up 5.5" IMBY. Good to have fresh powder on top of the old snow.

I woke up around 6 and it was drizzling… around 8 it flipped to snow and has been light to moderate since. According to the models we will likely stay all snow. There has been a lot of compaction since yesterday which will turn into a glacier.

Finally a good view of the lake today. Surprised to see so much open water. Feels like Spring out there with sun and temps in the mid-30's.

Your area seemed to be doing well today. We've had a lull since late morning but snow is pushing in off the lake. Eyeballing 2" so far.

It has been snowing here since 5am... close to 1" already.

Picked up 2.7". The dry arctic air and ice probably limited accums. Nice refresher to come tomorrow as well.

We'll see what today/tonight brings with snowfall. It was encouraging to see the stronger lake bands yesterday with the WSW flow as there is still open water. Anticipating 3-4" around this area.

Looked at the radar loop from last night and was surprised to see the heavy snow over parts of Lake and Ashtabula counties. Wonder what caused that pocket of heavy snow…. Looks like 4-6” fell in that area.

Considering the lack of synoptic snow we've had a good run since 1/1. Didn't pick up much additional yesterday - 1/2 inch or so. Hopefully the Central basin can hold off on freezing for a few more days... need the wind and waves to stay up otherwise a calm cold night will rapidly increase ice.

I'm sure there will still be open water in the central basin which will help. Picked up another 1" last night.

Lots of ice on the western basin already. Probably closed for business soon. This is a cam from middle bass island looking west-- once this area is ice covered the remainder of the western basin is as well - http://64.246.98.57/CgiStart?page=Single&Language=0'

Picked up another 1"+ last night/this morning. Snow growth must be poor as it is mainly snow pellets.

Heavier snow than I expected this morning. Large cotton ball flakes are stacking up.

Storm total of 12.8” here. Was lucky to get under some of the better banding late yesterday afternoon. It was pure fluff. Still some snow falling this morning.

Same amount overnight as well - 10.5 total. Its a perfect wind direction to maximize the fetch from the western basin. Surprised there hasn't been a primary band on the eastside.
