just got in from a Jebwalk.....its coming down.

over an inch in the first hour with big fat flakes, but the snowflakes are now smaller but more numerous, still wet as the temp at CYOW is an even 0.0C.....the wetness is going to compact it, but i am still excited that it started as all snow and accumulated on everything main roads etc, immediately. should be a good night here.

i'll probably do another jebwalk later tonight when the heavier stuff gets here.

right now 32/31, mod SN in south ottawa.

Still rain here in cheektowaga as well. Temp has risen to 37 degrees. This is looking like itll go down in the bust category for this year as well as weve had .30" of rain so far the temps are rising and the precip is moving through here pretty quickly. On the link below im right in the green circle of rain around BUF :axe::ee::flood::cry:

had to go and wipe off the satellite dish outside, snow is very very wet and compacting as i type lol

there is about 2inches / 5cm of snow OTG now

rates have eased up a bit, i think the high reflectivities on radar actually represent the wetness of the snow after all.

so it would be better if we see less birght and more standard green so we can start drying out the snow, but that may not happen until the storm passes

the storm track is ideal for back side snow in YOW, though the models arent very agressive in pivoting a lot of precip after 4 or 5AM even though the RHs are high.... but i think they may be underdoing that, they usually do with deepening storms i have found.

Still all rain and 35 here in Cheektowaga. Moisture over S Ontario looks to be drying up. By the time we finally turn to snow we will be EXTREMELY lucky to see 2" total out of this. This pattern fricken sucks giant sweaty hairy elephant balls. This will be the year without a winter. Well somehow find a way to dodge every single storm. Well be lucky to see 5" fo the month of December and as of today we are 30" below average.

yep we have defintely switch over to rain here in South ottawa. really am baffled as to why, all of the critical thickness are SE of the area it appears, my only concern earlier in the day was the surface temps and even that is 32F on the dot.

heavy rain is being reported SE of ottawa by 20 miles. meanwhile NE of ottawa over by gatinuea still reporting snow and 1/2 mile visibility.

i'm afriad in the S end of town we may be stuck in the rain for the next couple hours or so, before switching back to snow. only going to make the lower end 4 inches likely at CYOW, but amounts will increase as one moves NE of the city.
