  1. Didn’t really accumulate anything after 8 PM last night so ended between 10 and 11”. Major drifting though. Had to clear my driveway again and relatives in rural areas have 3 foot drifts and will need a bobcat to clear the snow out
  2. Very light snow the past two hours. Barely any accumulation. Lots of drifting though
  3. Between 10-11 but impossible to accurately measure at this point. Drifting is getting impressive. Even some bare spots in my yard. snow is winding down. About .25” an hour now. Could get a few patches of enhanced snow over the next couple hours but overall shouldn’t get more than 2”
  4. around 9". drifts are impressive, it's all fractured dendrites now. wind is steady but will really pick up from the NNW after sunset
  5. a hair under 8" here now, still stacking efficiently. you can tell it's popped up to 33 degrees as the edge of the snow on my patio is melting but that's not slowing accumulations down at all
  6. https://ec.gc.ca/meteoaloeil-skywatchers/default.asp?lang=En&n=9DF2117C-1&wbdisable=true This is correct, the real old heads in here will remember the debates about the Nipher snow gauges and how they would lowball the snow totals
  7. 6.5" now, wind causing major drifts. during the transient subsidence bands flake size gets tiny but were still stacking
  8. 4.8" now but things are really starting to drift so this is my last attempt at a precise measurement
  9. 3.7” out there so far. Heavy rates but flake size is definitely impacted by the wind and lack of deep DGZ
  10. subsidence got filled in quickly and it's ripping out there, winds have been picking up from the north as well
  11. hoping that band over Janesville can shift nw just enough to help us jackpot this one, will be a close call
  12. gonna be a tightrope to get all my driveway/sidewalk clearing done before conditions become completely awful outside
  13. stared in horror at the dry slot when I woke up but we only got down to flurries here and already picking back up. 2.3" with the early morning WAA. the main TROWAL feature should start impacting us shortly.
  14. unsurprisingly the CAMs are moving SE this evening
  15. some of the Hi-Res CAMs keep daytime snow around here much lower and accumulations only reaching 5-7" in total. did some model sounding investigation and one main difference is much weaker omega in the CAMs. Verbatim the NAMs would give us a really good chance at thundersnow. One negative factor is that after the initial 3 hour burst the DGZ gets really shallow due to strong WAA and it doesn't really recover until the very tail end.
  16. 18z NAM drops 5.4" between 6 and 9 AM tomorrow. if we're gonna do it, lets do it full NAM style
  17. full sunshine right now. happy to sneak this in before the next system starts spreading high clouds in
  18. Final call of 9”. Wind is going to get very nasty tomorrow afternoon
  19. Snow starting here. Will have to see if the squall makes it up here. Low will be weakening as the night goes on
  20. should jackpot this and may even jackpot Friday's storm. will get pics of the upcoming glacier
  21. hoping for some sunshine. This is the most climatologically favored time of the year for this cold so not expecting any records
  22. it's crazy how underdispersive the GEFS is compared to the EPS
