snowstormcanuck Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 1.7" down in 1 hour. White out conditions when the wind is going the strongest. Without the benefit of ratios. Damn impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Looks like snow is about to begin, band north of the main precip shield is backbuilding to the east and about to rotate in. 33F with 30+ mph gusts. Already seeing some flakes on top of the met building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baum Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 It appears that after all the concern about ratios,compaction and thermal profiles which all ended up working in our favor the dreaded dry slot will have the final say.
