Really good shot of putting this in #1 for March. A decent chance of knocking 1978 off its throne too. That would put today at #5 all-time.

IMADreamer Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Things seem to be winding down here although officially the NWS still calling for another 1-3 I'm not seeing it. What I scooped about two hours ago has not really filled back in even though we still have some light very wet snow flying. Looks like we may be just shy of 10 inches. The wind is gusting a bit more now though and with all the trees completely covered and weighted down I'm still concerned about power outages.

csnavywx Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 This and the Feb. 21 storm saved what was going to be a pretty terrible winter. This should put us at around 27" on the season, pretty good considering we ended January with about 4". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 It's drifting like a mutha...some bare grass, some spots 9" deep. Board is not going to work, so the best average measurement (of several measurements in the yard) I have is around 5.0" right now. EDIT: adding the inch I measured from this morning...the 6" drought is officially over at KTIM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Congrats to all who are getting hammered. It's just getting going good here. Listening to the cops on my police radio complaining about visibility. BTW, a quote from Alek from page 2 in the first thread. "Wagons south each run now. Liking my early couple inches of slop for the OH valley call. Enjoy guys!" Bust! I just had to bust your chops on that call. You've actually had a pretty good year with your predictions. The Euro let you down this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Global_Warmer Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 LSR has IL. Then someone is mistaken there. No biggie. I just assumed they meant Ofallon, MO which is 20 miles NW of STL where 12-15 inches fell..Ofallon, il had 8-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 This and the Feb. 21 storm saved what was going to be a pretty terrible winter. This should put us at around 27" on the season, pretty good considering we ended January with about 4". If STL can hit 28.4" they will crack into their top 20 snowiest winters list. They did pretty bad during the snowblitz years much of the rest of the midwest saw recently, so they are certainly due. The first time I can recall being jealous of STL, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
