RogueWaves Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 My county was upgraded to a WSWarning about 10 am (through 7 am Monday). I'm right on the boundary line of warning criteria totals expected, but shockingly have been getting hammered since just before 5. I ran out to the grocery store about 4:30. When I went in, it was just wet pavement and with a few puddles and 34 degrees. Came out not 10 minutes later and it was a wall of white sticking quickly on roads too. Everythings covering up nicely and already looks like about an 1"+ has accumulated. Forecast radars did not look good until about 1am with about a six hr window. Looks like I'm ahead of schedule and might just luck out and bust high! Happy New Year! Classic LES set-up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Still snowing here as a shortwave trough moves through. Even though the low pressure system busted in snowfall, we still may end up with the 1-2 inches of snow that was expected thanks to this trough.
