Hoosier Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Based on my quick analysis, the surface warm front appears to be on or just north of a GBG-IKK-OKK line then arcing southeastward to areas just north of Cincinnati. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormJr Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Just measured 7-8" before this next burst came in here in Minnetonka, MN (West Metro of Minneapolis). Received 1-2" in an hours time. Snow as heavy if not a bit heavier than that right now. Looks like wave after wave of heavy snow over the next several hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrick7032 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 How much snow? 4-5" over here so far I would guess about the same....I haven't measured....been busy....plus had to COR my ob just because you can put it in any order but usually we put ALQDS AND OHD instead of the inverse.

ayuud Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Niagara Falls - Welland - Southern Niagara Region 3:34 PM EST Sunday 20 February 2011 Winter storm warning for Niagara Falls - Welland - Southern Niagara Region continued ..Snow and blowing snow beginning this evening and continuing tonight.. A Colorado low over Southwestern Iowa this afternoon is tracking towards Northern Ohio. Snow ahead of this low has moved into Southwestern Ontario an will continue to develop eastward. Snow and blowing snow will intensify tonight giving winter storm conditions. Snow amounts of 15 to 20 cm are likely. The snow may change over to ice pellets for a few hours tonight in locales near Western Lake Erie with risk of freezing rain. Brisk east to northeast winds will cause blowing snow in many areas. Driving conditions are expected to deteriorate quickly beginning this evening and become hazardous due to very low visibility in heavy snow and blowing snow. Freezing rain in the extreme southwest may make untreated surfaces become icy. The winter storm will end early Monday morning. Environment Canada is closely monitoring the situation. Warnings will be issued later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't do snow increase/amount obs because I am in a tower 60 feet up and there is no feasible site nearby to go down to do so....closest spot to go to and back would take a half hour so we don't so them to stay on top of the obs.

Moneyman Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 God damn I hate shoveling. Probably have about 6 inches, but the snow keeps blowing onto my driveway and more keeps on coming.

L.B. LaForce Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Well, on a flight right now from Denver to Detroit..this should be interesting. First 10,000ft or more were pretty bumpy, but it fairly smooth now. Some need cloud features, but now the sun is going down, so its hard to see them.
