Steve Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 We may be in trouble..the rain line does not seem to be moving north!! http://www.accuweather.com/us/radar/sir/oh_/radar.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbcmh81 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 850's have to be falling then. At least I would think. It is just pour the zr right now. It wont take long to add up at this rate and the wind is picking up.. Don't know... it didn't last long, maybe 10 minutes, but I could hear them pinging on my windows and saw them bouncing on my porch. Back to mostly zr now.

vespasian70 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 They just showed our governor on NBC 4, and I don't care whether you're a dem or repub, the guy sounded like a whack job. He recommended we stay home and read a book. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherman5416 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Do you guys think that the zr will reach western pa? I'm in Beaver county, directly north of pittsburgh. At first I thought we would stay rain, but I am already down to 32.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherman5416 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Ive got you right on the line. Just looked back at your map, sorry I didn't see that before I posted. Anyway, if we get it, its going to surprise a lot of people because our local news have been saying mainly rain tonight with ice accumulation up near I-80. Looks like the heavier stuff is on my doorstep, so I'll let you guys know what I experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdudemike Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just called in 1/4" total here, but we might be up to .3" actually storm total. It's hard to measure off of the trees and railings. Everything that was clear (just wet) earlier is completely glazed including Curl Drive out in from of my dorm. Really nasty out there. Trees are sagging more now.

Trees are sagging more now. Yea, still falling hard here. With the winds starting to pick up quite a bit. Hoping we keep power. EDIT: Just went and broke off some pieces and measured again. looking like close to .35 here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vespasian70 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Using the Intellicast radar it looks like the rain line is slowly creeping north, however it isn't fast enough IMHO. Where is the WTOD when you need it??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the WTOD when you need it??? Nah bring on the ice At least it is wintry precipitation. I dont mind a good ice storm every once in a while, and if we can pick up a couple inches ontop of it, the trees and stuff will look amazing and will make for some sweet pictures. Aside that it really isnt moving north at all.. Just fluctuations up and down right along the same line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyGreens Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Finally, got the wireless going on my laptop. Time Warner in Delaware has had cable off since 330 this afternoon. That would be my tv and internet. Luckily, I have my wireless card! Roads were definitely worse up by marion but that was due to sleet they received. Raining pretty good here still. Ice is accumulating quickly! Ice sicles hanging off of everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdudemike Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hmm, just heard a loud noise and had my power flicker... this is going to suck. Franklink county outages just more than doubled.

vespasian70 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Not much ice fell here last night...just a glaze really. Looks like tonight we make up for that. Radar looks ominous if that rain line doesn't move north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbcmh81 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Okay, now I'm really confused. The temp went up to 28 here in Columbus, but now the airport is reporting a mix of zr and SNOW. Dayton is reporting only snow, and Cincy's still just zr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdudemike Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 porch railing. Why suggestions? Ive never actually read the proper way of measuring ice. Me neither, that's why I was asking.

jbcmh81 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I can confirm in dayton.. Whats this mean you can clearly see snow on the roads in DAY It means I have no idea what's going on Dayton and Columbus were not supposed to see snow until sometime Wednesday. The only thing I can think of is that the heavy precip is allowing for a thump type snow to mix down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 another live shot from dayton. roads are definitely snow covered. That is just north of dayton on I70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveG Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Lots of sleet with zr here in Marysville. Losing power is becoming a very serious threat for everyone in central Ohio. I was on the phone with my brother who lives in Grove City and both of us are having the power flickering at the same time. That is not a good feeling........

jbcmh81 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Was just looking outside and witnessed a good chunk of my neighborhood go dark, and saw at least one power flash to the north. Still with power here, hope it stays on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several 'power flickers' in the past half hour here in Clintonville. There is a pine tree precariously slumping over the power lines a few houses down from my apartment.
