SchaumburgStormer Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Odd feeling to shovel the driveway with the Christmas lights on. Haven't had that opportunity for a year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbertfly Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 While rates look to slow considerably in an hour or so in LOT....still flakes flying quite a ways to the west.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimillman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Definitely approaching 2" here. Rates still pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 HRRR encouraging for the GTA, puts us in the 2-3" range. Also keeps the system all snow, with rain only over the lake or right near the shore. I've got a bit of distance from the lake so hopefully I can remain all snow. Southern track shift discussed earlier may also help in keeping the warm air out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 The climo report issued at 4:21 had 1.4" on 0.12"...that is what I was looking at. OIC. Must have used the amount from noon for the 4pm climo. Then the 6hr measurement at 6pm added the additional 0.9". EDIT: Was just out shoveling and there is some light freezing drizzle misting down.

Geos Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Making that run up to the end. Looking good outside. Nice picture Huron - you've got a better camera for night shots I see. Tuanis - looks like we might end being the same in accum's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 3.4 inches here, a modest overperformer. Cedar Rapids was among the winners. There is another piece of energy dropping snow in central Iowa and we may get a bit more. I won't be able to get a liquid measurement until it's all done.

wisconsinwx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Measured an additional 2" on the deck after measuring 3" of snow the first time shoveling the deck. Going with 5" and change as my final total. Pretty much a range of 3-6" of snow in the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Radar is looking awfully anemic. I'm worried about my 1" call I have to say. Yeah the tap just completely shut off and radar cleared out. HRRR has a brief period of moderate to heavy snow around 2-4am, so holding out hope.

Gilbertfly Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 a few measurements showed basically 1.9 and 2 inches .... so, somewhere in there after the main moderate bands finished...as hawkeye mentioned still plenty of light snow obs out west....but maybe only another tenth or so out that for me I suspect... EDIT: Last random band brought me another tenth+ .... new measurements average out around 2.1 looks like my 3 to 5 inch call was too high for MBY ... but points north from me seem to be coming in around 2.5" +....so not bad ORD latest measurement had 3.1 ... so I guess it squeaked by FWIW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
