TugHillMatt Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 That band that moved through Muskegon and Spring Lake DUMPED the snow. About five inches in a couple hours..on top of the 2 inches we got last night. Beautiful outside! Looks like there is some more on the way. Whiteouts throughout the afternoon.

Indystorm Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Nice inch of snow to whiten things up again from bare ground here in Elkhart this morning. Could get a significant amount tonight. Need to have the snow move offshore into the lake and consolidate into a nice single band moving down the east side of the lake and then turn se to really plaster some of us in Michiana area. Congrats to Detroit and Ontario posters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Had 2" of snow here today. We have inched our way, literally, up to 35" already on the season. Funny thing is with the sun peaking out, those who live on the sunny side of the street didnt even have to shovel as the pavement melted the snow despite temps being in the 20s. Probably a mix of increasing sun angle and fluffy snow. Got a couple cool squally sky pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 You can see the spin of the mesolow over Lk Ontario on King City Radar. Downtown looks like it's getting kind of screwed being in the "eye" of the storm. Snow re-intensifying here as of 5pm. Could have an inch down but probably a bit less.

blizzardof96 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Heavier band is inching its way towards the downtown core from the SW. Right now I am sandwiched between the two bands but should get back into the action soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I am sandwiched between the two bands but should get back into the action soon. Mississauga is getting just hammered right now. The 20-25dbz returns over me are huge flaked moderate snow. There is some pivoting to the east, so yeah, hopefully downtown and North York get back into some good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I am sandwiched between the two bands but should get back into the action soon hopefully. haha. my area is getting pummeled. Quite heavy, about 7.5cm down. Coming down at a rate of about 3-4cm an hour. Western regions towards Brampton, Mississauga and north Etobicoke and Far Eastern regions getting destroyed as well. How much for your area? Added with the extremely cold upper air temps, this is producing some outstanding snow ratios. I suspect temperatures tonight may dip well into the mid to high teens if the skies clear.

Snowstorms Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 8 cm of snow fell at Toronto's Pearson Airport between 2 and 5 PM.3 cm of snow fell since 2 PM at the Ontario storm prediction centre HAHA, i think that Nipher malfunctioned.

In all fairness it really makes up for the snow we lost in the past couple of years. I got about 8.0cm down now and still going heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowstorms Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 More compensation for the Feb 8th debacle. Like it. yeah i cant deny their numbers. The Western regions seem to be getting destroyed as well. I suspect they'll atleast finish with 10cm putting us to almost 40cm for the month.

Ottawa Blizzard Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Yeah you too man. In all fairness it really makes up for the snow we lost in the past couple of years. I got about 8.0cm down now and still going heavy. I measured 3" about 30 minutes ago and it looks like the snow is starting up again. Good call from yesterday Canuck.

Toronto4 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 After a break in the action, snow has begun to pick up in intensity in the downtown core. Radar is looking pretty good as this thermal low is moving very slowly. An hour ago, there were some sunny breaks downtown after the first band of snow fell.

Talk about a bust by the forecasters who were calling for a sunny weekend! Tom Brown blew it! Thanks. Yeah, I don't think any of the local mets were calling for this even though it was plain to see on all the high-res models. I'll admit though that my 1-2" locally was too low. A few places look like they're going to flirt with 1/2 a foot. 1" on the nose here as of 5.45pm. We've only been able to get these spurts of heavy snow with the more consistent returns staying W/N and E. Ring of fire and I'm living on the fringe.

To my surprise, we've had alot of LES events off Lake Ontario this year, haven't we Canuck? lol haha. imma go measure in about 15 mins. Its moderate now in my area.

blizzardof96 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Snow picking up again. Very high snowfall ratios, time of day and surface temps should work in our favor. Snow should start piling up again, hoping to squeeze 3-4" out of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 We sure have. Any chance of my region getting in on a bit more of the action? Going to be tough. Overall tendency is going to be for this to sink back across Lake Ontario. Maybe the northern edge of what's affecting Snowstorms right now clips you guys.
