Chicago Storm Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Most legit pixie dust I've ever seen. Small and thin plates fluttering to the ground. Actually looks like a snow globe. Pivot point area is filling in around here. Another period of SN incoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman1952 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 They are calling for 2-3 for us later tonight and tomorrow with the two clippers. I'll take it to hopefully build up the snowpack some before the warmer comes this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Your earlier ORD call may be back in play? Na...Slightly under 0.5" here with the first burst and likely the same at ORD.

Thunder Road Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 It started snowing while I was taking my Dynamics final. Huge fat flakes, too. I didn't get out to clear the board before it started snowing. When I did, there was lot more snow on there than I thought there would be. Did it snow this morning too? Some of it could have been drifting from Saturday's snow too, but I don't think all of it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 .6" and my neighbor is running a snowblower... Haha! lazy... not to mention waste of gas. 30 minute commute turned into a 55 minute commute. Moderate to high end moderate snow the whole way. I can't believe Taft was saying there was only high end light snow being reported! Will measure when it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blizzardof96 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Think a general 1" looks good for this for Toronto, but it wouldn't surprise me to see 2-3" fall in the lake band that'll likely setup. With an ESE/SE flow it'll likely be in the areas from Toronto and east that missed out on the LES during the weekend. Agree. Lake enhancement should help bump up totals across eastern/central parts of the GTA. HRRR looks good for some decent oak ridge upsloping/ESE convergence with a 0.1-0.2" QPF max showing up downtown.

nwohweather Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 wouldn't .6" settle to dust? With the powdery nature of this snow you might as well get out a leaf blower.

tuanis Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Tacked on another 1.2" this evening and still light snow falling. Somewhere between an inch and an inch and a half fell this evening. Just enough to cover everything nicely again and turn the tollway into a parking lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
