Would have been better if this storm didn't even happen.. This last band has been nice and is pretty much the only one we've been under all day. Atleast its finally sticking.

Organizing Low Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 just massive flakes here in ottawa, these are some of the biggest i have ever seen, 1-2 quarters width, just started up like that but i imagine the temp of 32 has something to do with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the type of flakes than can provide decent ratios even when the temp is close to freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 GOod rates were key with this thing. Although totals aren't in yet I'm assuming places from IND-Muncie northward got a general 2-4". They were under some good bands for a while.

roardog Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 It wasn't too bad here. The grass is completely covered now. The last burst of snow late this afternoon did the job. I'd say there's close to 2 inches out there except for areas under trees. It looks like Winter again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that is the key: It looks like Winter again. Sure it's not enough to do most winter sports but it's a start I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're either at 1.3" through 6pm or 1.7". I didn't make note at what the precip was before the change to snow. 2.5 or 3.5mm. It's at 6.7mm now. Ross Hull on SWO CTV News just called for 4" through tonight. I don't know where he gets his info from. HRRR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Organizing Low Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 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.
