Will never forget this one. We live on the west side of Alum Creek park, and IIRC this storm started Friday morning as I worked until around 1:15-1:30, then kicked my assistant out and told her to go home and I left right after her. Lots of snow until evening when it stopped, then started back up in force overnight into late Saturday afternoon. There was even a blizzard warning for Friday, but not sure if conditions met the technical blizzard definition for winds. This is the heaviest snow I can recall since I was a kid living in NE Ohio.

For Central Ohio peeps - this is too bad:

Central Ohio weather for the forseeable future:

These next few weeks, I fear, are going to be boring.

Think we’re just in a bad spot - no LE, and we need just the right path to get any good snows.

Nothing in Orange Twp. Told my kids to be ready for school tomorrow.

Would love to, but think we're only going to get a few inches at best. Other models showing more south. Already told my wife and kids that they'll have school tomorrow.

No kidding - they also get a day every other week off anyway

Curious if schools will open - wife teaches in Columbus and kids go to Olentangy.

I think they're the same - it's when you get down toward Pickaway/Fairfield etc where the WSW criteria is lower, but someone more knowledgeable than me can chime in. I'm in Delaware County as well on the west side of Alum Creek

Of course, you're correct - WWA just issued

So we get lots of cold without much in the way of snow - such is living in Central Ohio

Maybe we'll get lucky. Recall Dec 2013, when we were supposed to get 10-12" on Thursday night-Friday and ended up with only about 3" as the storm moved about 60-70 miles to the south (areas like Chillicothe got a foot that we were supposed to get) - maybe this time the weather gods will push this thing north to give us something worthwhile

Still have nightmares about Jan 2019, when we were supposed to get around a foot on Saturday, and instead got a few inches (granted overnight was lots of blowing/drifting with bad roads) preceded by rain due to WAA.

If we'd at least get some decent snow out of the cold shot - unfortunatly, it's usually a high of low 20's with sun. Give me upper 20's-low 30's with snow
