You guys get any lightning or thunder? negative here, but thought it was going to as hard as it snowed when that band moved through, picked up a quick inch before it moved out.

OHSnow Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Boy, the NWS was really caught like deer in the headlights with this storm. I don't know what they were thinking... we've been discussing here for three days. I still think even the 4-8" forecast is too low, considering I'm already hearing totals at the top of that range with several more hours of moderate to heavy snow in these areas. This is almost as bad as the storm at the beginning of the month that dumped 8-10 inches here in Toledo, when the forecasts weren't calling for half that much.

I remember that. Forecast called for 4-6 storm total when I had already had 4" of overrunning... then added another 4.5" the following night. Local forecasters did somewhat better then the Feb. 5th storm... they called for 1-2" that morning and we got 5.5". This time they were going with 2-4" and we ended up with 6" give or take a 1/4". Still could pick up another 1/2" or so with that wrap around in towards Hillsdale/Monroe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part 1 of this storm DTW saw 10.1" and TOL saw 0.9"...part 2 its the oppositte! Nothing meaningful here yet though looking at radar we may talk a little bit onto our fresh deep snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol...what I don't get is all the models picked up on this yesterday...there wasn't even an advisory this morning...an advisory this morning would have at least got the word out.

michsnowfreak Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Lol...what I don't get is all the models picked up on this yesterday...there wasn't even an advisory this morning...an advisory this morning would have at least got the word out. Hmm...maybe the DTX guys get a LITTLE more slack than PIT then lol. They did have a warning in place, but were harping on ice, and snow not being a big issue. They called for the snow to turn to freezing after 1-3" but cold air aloft won the battle and it never did (just a brief negligible mix). DTW was reporting thundersnow with 0.06 mile visibility at 7pm last night when it already was supposed to be glazing lol. But if PIT just flat out had no advisory or hwo in place when signs were pointing to it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Congrats southern counties. Heavy returns on the radar down there. Meh snowfall here. Snowed hard for 30 minutes then back to light stuff, barely. Over an inch so far. One more inch and my call with bust. Another Dud! Sandwiched between two 6-10" storms. Looks like a wind blown 1-2" will do it here. The never ending winter of perpetual light snows and near misses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happened with our locals feb5-6 last year. 6 pm news they were saying 3-6, with about 5 on the ground and 16 hours of snow left. Ended up with 22 inches. Nws did do great on that one, but the locals got a lot of people stuck out that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppsRunner Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Either way congrats. So u are south of TOL, did you get bad ice last night? We had about 8 hours of freezing rain... but with temperatures hovering just below freezing (31.9* for almost 12 hours straight during the day/night) it didn't accumulate too much on roads. It refroze this morning and was covered in 6" of snow though... so roads aren't in good shape right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Martin Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 We got a glaze of ice here in the downtown this morning. The pavement was a pure skating rink. Now, there is 4" of snow on the ground here with 12" drifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 That storm sure made a quick exit from Ohio. Judging by the reports from the CLE PNS, which were mostly through 8-9 pm, the snow totals from the southern CWA weren't terribly excessive, 4-6" with a couple isolated higher amounts. A little bit of junk rolling off the lake here, about 2 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 quite an amazing storm. Totals weren't extreme, but nearly 6" in 5hrs is a pretty impressive snowfall. Was fun to watch. Gotta be honest though, it wasnt as fun without my columbus buddies getting in on it. How did you do over in newark steve or vespian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilly84 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 apparently that band coming from IL must pack a bit of a punch cause PIT has me getting another 2-4" overnight. Ive gotta revel in the fact that I called this storm to the date 15 days ago. Pretty sweet feeling to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
