snowstormcanuck Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Based on what I'm seeing on radar, the most intense snowfall rates for the west end of Lake Ontario may be wrapping up. That's a bit quicker than I was expecting. The SREF/NAM/RGEM ridic numbers you can now safely throw out the window. 1 foot mark is going to be the ceiling.

Did you mix with sleet at all through the night? Think we did for about 20 mins along the 59 corridor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottawa Blizzard Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Like I said, if anyone's going to be our foot (maybe foot and change?) boy, It's you.

When your viewing shots from your digital cam/phone cam on your computer, take a screen shot of it and re-save it. That'll reduce the size of the image and you'll be able to upload it.

YHM Supercell Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Was just at a hill up the street from my house...2 plows lined up going up the hill with a car in front. Car started to slide backyard down the hill..managed to miss the plows. Interesting to watch though. About 8 inches so far where I am at. Still ripping here too.

Ottawa Blizzard Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Still ripping snow. Approaching 11" on the ground. Looks like a heavy band of snow has just come onshore and is making its way to the Kitchener area. A second heavy band still over Lake Huron.

Looks like a heavy band of snow has just come onshore and is making its way to the Kitchener area. A second heavy band still over Lake Huron. So the Hamilton guys who saw no snow yesterday are at 8", toronto blizzard in Mississauga said 8" (probably 9 or 10" now), you out in Scarborough at 11" and I'm not yet at 7"? The snow is stratiform, not convective so these discrepancies are a little puzzling. Interesting to see when the official numbers come out.
