cyclone77 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 9.6" at 10:30pm. Boggles my mind that there could be so much snow on the ground only 2hrs northeast of here. Simply amazing. I can't wait to see tomorrow's high-res visible shots. Loved your pics from earlier, feel free to post some more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Snow finally winding down here. Picked up another .8", storm total of 4.9". Surprise overperformer, and by far the bet event of the year. Not bad at all. Not really by the back edge now, temperatures are starting to cool, so could get another inch! --- Ok, Cyclone - Here's a couple night shots.

SchaumburgStormer Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Not bad at all. Not really by the back edge now, temperatures are starting to cool, so could get another inch! --- Ok, Cyclone - Here's a couple night shots. DSCN1464.JPG DSCN1466.JPG It definitely cooled an snow ratios improved. Got some minor blowing at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottawa Blizzard Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Quite the contrast in forecast amounts. CBC calling for 31.5cm (12.5"), Anthony Farnell of Global calling for 35cm (14") while Tom Brown of CTV is calling for 24.5cm (just under 10") for Toronto.

frostfern Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 9.6" at 10:30pm. It looks like you're going to win. I thought I would do better since the snow this afternoon was more intense than I expected. I just got dry slotted for way too long to recover.

It sounds like your area did great, Geos! I got about 13" on the ground now! Snow is light now, but is accumulating better since it's down to 31°. Blowing around a little bit too.

It sounds like your area did great, Geos! It looks like the the back end is re-intensifying a little over Lake MI. Too bad there's another dry slot pushing in from the SW ahead of it. You've managed to stay clear of dry slots and warm air intrusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow is light now, but is accumulating better since it's down to 31°. Blowing around a little bit too. South from Racine to Waukegan did great. As far as total depth goes, probably. Total might be higher if you take into account the minor melting and settling that occurred with the brief warmup between the first two rounds.
