  1. Ya Toronto and Detroit are similar. Toronto got lucky two weeks but there’s a reason why 12-20” paralyzed the city and the clean up wasn’t even finished two weeks later haha
  2. I think for SE MI and Ontario crowd is that we both got threaded by wave 1 and 2. 1 was north and 2 south. That’s why immediate border cities like Buffalo-Niagara need a bit more amped system. I think Rochester sits pretty good
  3. The snow line looks about 50 miles further west from where most models had it at 5pm
  4. Lol not to be that Debbie but I’d be careful with those numbers. Detroits storm evaporated. Transition events in GL region is tough and normally slower. A lot riding on that 2nd wave. Detroit snowed all day and saw 2”
  5. Haha this is some kind of revenge from CNY on S.Ontario. Heavy rain now expected to last until midnight with 1-3cm or under 1” during the night and 2-5cm tomorrow. So storm will now go from 8-16” modelled a few days ago to 2-3”
  6. Ya, this storms a bust for southern Ontario. Hopefully you guys make out a bit better. Certainly nothing big though
  7. The snowpack though will most likely not budge without massive heat and rain after this haha
  8. Lucky, its pouring rain here with upper 30s and dew points mid 30s. Haven't seen a bust like this in some time. Good news is that this wasn't a typical snowstorm so the excitement never got up as high as it usually does.
  9. ya, its definitely slower than what we originally anticipated. How many hours you think left for Hamilton? My guess is around 5-7pm but originally I thought 2-4pm and I have to keep pushing it back
  10. So judging from upstream Detroit and now Hamilton-Toronto it appears that the models were wrong with the cold air bleeding in. I think Buffalo-Niagara will struggle to reach 6" now as well. Most of that should come with the 2nd wave
  11. ya, I think this storm is a big time bust for Detroit and Toronto. Local weather station just mentioned max amount will most likely be 4".
  12. Global News dropping amounts. Not a giant surprise. Have you guys lost much to melt?
  13. Ya, these transition events are notoriously bad for amounts. Heavy rain still here and temperature is actually slowly climbing still.
  14. wow just saw Buffalo is 44F. I was skeptical when NWS said no snow until Thursday yet EC said change over by late afternoon/early evening. Heavy rain here as well*
  15. I can see it but lowering the totals also makes sense. I think 12" will be the max for NW Ohio and SE MI. Too much qpf was lost to rain/wet snow. Buffalo mentioned ratios could be as low as 4-6:1 for a period of time.
  16. Snow depth down to 4" with a temperature of 37F and light rain. This will most likely become a big glacier since its absorbing the water and not melting as fast as I thought.

  18. Environment Canada has cancelled the weather advisories for Toronto. Its rare for them to do it before the event has really started but shows how little impact they expect this storm to have. Original winter weather advisory was for 4-8" but now the forecast mentions more rain and max 2-4" for the event.
  19. nah, judging by the newest update from them. Rain all of today with only 2-4" tonight and tomorrow. Not often they cancel an advisory they issued before snow even falls. Shows how little impact they expect this storm to have on Toronto and the suburbs
  20. haha Environment Canada has fully cancelled any advisories for Toronto and GTA. Im somehow still in a warning but I imagine that gets cancelled soon as well
  21. Im in the warning and dont think I see that much haha. The transition events generally underperform here so I see where Ottawa Blizzard is coming from.
  22. Buffalo is talking about 4-6:1 ratios with wave 1. Groundhog Day storms are cursed for GTHA haha. 2011 one fell apart, cant remember 2nd one and this one is turning out to be a run of the mill slop fest
  23. I mean I hate to nit pick here with the board but Toronto is the centre of the universe since its the largest city on the Great Lakes. So Columbus is actually looking to catch Toronto haha (Chicago has bigger metro though I think)
  24. Im thinking Buffalo goes for advisory. Buffalo-Hamilton needed the 1st wave to be colder and instead were going to rain for most of it. Buffalo even mentions some awful ratios which means its all going to come down to the 2nd wave. Snow pack was putting up a good fight but temperature is 40F and rain. Looks like overall this system will end up being a net loss for my snow depth (started around 7" before today)
