NwWhiteOut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Ummm yea ok so just now they decide to stick my county in the winter storm warning lol, what happened to that about 5 hours ago. Really boggles the mind sometimes. Most of the heavy stuff is done now it looks like, maybe a few bands here and there to pass through still.

JoMo Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 And the bush is dead, just watched the last 2 pieces split and fall to the ground. It was being cut down this Spring anyway, guess it wanted an early start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Waterboy Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 It's snowing here!!!! Been coming down for a couple of hours. We probably have an inch now. Better than nothing. Now I feel like life is complete and I can move forward with life. LOL. I'm glad you guys up north got some decent accumulation. This may be the last hoorah for this year.

MoWeatherguy Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Close to 4" now after this heavy band for the past 30 mins or so. Giant flakes and beautiful I might add! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Got lucky with that developing over us. Sometimes it pays to be close to the N-NW side of the dryslot because you get the heavier precip and thundersnow due to the instability. The trowal never really developed over SE KS, it hung around the Wichita to KC area. Areas in SE KS that were expected to get 6+ inches only got 2" or so because of that and the dry air that worked into the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouamber Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Pathetic for Tulsa...it snowed for a long time, but it was so wet it never amounted to anything. Sucks...now I'm pouting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed the totals over SE KS were really light and wondered why. This was a strange acting storm in some ways and did overperform in some areas but underperformed in others. All models struggled with the thermal profiles after settling in pretty well on the overall track and intensity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NwWhiteOut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Ok before I get to a few neater vids i did, this one was decently neat to post. Slow motion mode of the water flowing in the stream behind our rental here, if you look good you can kinda see the snow falling in slow motion. Wound up with 7" here. I advise to watch these in HD mode if possible they look much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NwWhiteOut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Sorry for me grunting, I was tired and got startled by a big massive blob of snow falling off a tree and smacking me in the head lol. Not as much in the woods on the ground from the trees blocking most of the snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NwWhiteOut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Thanks guys I am really glad you enjoyed them, looked like a totally different area back in them woods with all that snow! And yea its really scenic right here around me and the landlords own about 15 acres behind this place thats all wooded with the stream so me and the dog go back there every day! I will miss it when we move to fayetteville, will not miss this area much but will miss the location we have right here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westhope84 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Thanks for the wonderful videos, NW. Snow makes everything seem right. I've heard rumors of something brewing around the March 9th or 10th time frame. Who knows. All I want is 4-5 inches of scenic snow. Ok, I'll be honest... 10 or 12 or 20 would be more exciting. Come on, Tulsa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
