Just thought you folks would like to see one of the snowflake pics I just got. Lighting was hard but these are the best structures I've seen all day. I think these are satisfactory dendrites? :)

Wow! Yours turned out much better than mine. Do you have a macro lens? I was using a non-macro lens handheld with a flashlight. Not ideal.

Great job!

I didn't even see your shot when I posted mine. I didn't mean to steal your thunder. But yeah, I'm using the Nikon 60 mm macro lens with none other than an LED flashlight! Props for getting out there, it's chilly and dark to be sure.

ORH got over 0.30" of qpf in their bucket in a 3 hour period earlier and never reported greater than moderate snow....despite the fact that the bucket almost always under estimates QPF in snow events....esp fluffy ones. ASOS FTL...I had 1/8 vis several times during that period.

I might actually get more snow that you in this event.. we will see, will measure again in a few minutes and then bedtime.

getting some wind now blowing the snow off the trees

Gonna be close...we were neck-and-neck, then I passed you by like a half inch...then you caught up.

I'll measure at midnight...I expect it to be just under 7"
