tsteel Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 8" drifts here... About 3" since last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 3-4 so far I would say. Impossible to measure accuarately though as mentioned earlier with blowing snow and previous snow pack. That snow hole that the models were showing was evident on the radar this morning, although I do think it was a bit SE vs models. Very nice wintry day! Funny how 20s feel warm lol.

RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Actually you are wrong, look at the radar, Cleveland will be in the clear within the hour and the density is breaking up. We will be seeing the sun by 4. From NWS discussion: MINOR ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO THE FORECAST TO INCREASE SNOW AMOUNTS ALONG THE I80 CORRIDOR AND A SMALL AMOUNT ELSEWHERE. LATEST WV IMAGERY SHOWS JET MAX BEYOND THE DOWNSTREAM INFLECTION POINT AND JUST ENTERING THE BASE OF THE TROUGH THAT IS DRIVING TODAY`S WINTER WEATHER. WITH THAT...WOULD EXPECT THE TROUGH TO DEEPEN ONLY A SMALL AMOUNT WHILE SWINGING EAST...WHICH WOULD PUT THE FORECAST UNDER THE DIFFLUENT AREA ASSOCIATED WITH THE JET FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE DAY. AT THIS POINT THE CURRENT ADVISORY STILL LOOKS SUFFICIENT...BUT EXPECT MOST LOCATIONS TO SEE STORM TOTAL AMOUNTS ON THE HIGHER END OF FORECAST RANGES BASED ON LATEST GUIDANCE AND OBS TRENDS. I highly doubt we see the sun today... snow may start breaking up and scattering out by late afternoon or evening but partly cloudy skies look unlikely. Are there obs from Western Ohio that have clear skies or something? Just curious what reasoning is behind your comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Also are we looking at any snow tomorrow/night. 1-2 tomorrow, and probbaly the warmest temps with the WAA of the next 5-6 days. When I say warmer, I mean some areas may approach freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I will most likely be out in the roads around then if they hit us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think we escaped that for the most part in the metro. The 20's do feel warm. After shoveling and walking to the store, I was sweating pretty good by the time I got home. Some of those drifts were 6" +. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Everytime the snow starts to lighten up it just seems to rebuild right over head. Pretty impressive. Probably the best region wide storm of the season, no temperature problems for anyone, combine that with an all day light to moderate snow and you have a nice little event for everyone. You can see that squall line in central OH getting more organized. Hopefully it keeps building as it moves towards SWPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rdd9108 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 It looks like that band is too far north to hit agh county. Am i seeing that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwilson Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 No idea how much snow down here, looks somewhere between 2 and 3 inches. I forgot to clear off my board before the snow and I don't think we've had any melt since the Monday storm. Right now it looks like the little snow we receive tomorrow into Monday will be the last snow for a week or more (depending on temps). If there is a warm up in Early Feb, it may be short-lived as the pattern reloads. At least one can hope. Maybe we can get some southern stream energy with the cold in Feb.

RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Sun just came out right at 4 here lol lol, The sky here started to get very bright, but the sun didn't actually peak out and all I could think was the broken clock anaology. Light snow has since resumed with some pretty fluffly flakes. Squall line looks pretty impressive hope it holds or strengthens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 So once this squall line moves out. Is that the end of the snow for today? Should be the end of the steady snow I would think, except for those lucky enough to get under that band from Superior. Probably some scattered snow showers for everyone shortly after it goes through, but the story will be winds and droping temps at that point.

wstaude Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I'm seeing 2 squall lines; 1 coming from Ohio and moving SE, another moving through Wheeling to the ENE that look like they want to converge over Allegheny county. It could be a very very white 15 minutes for us here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north pgh Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 This will be fun. Too bad there on no dynamics with it to produce thundersnow. I just shoveled mine and my neighbors driveways. 4 inches total here so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Its eerily calm out there, very little wind but clouds are lowering. Almost feels like waiting for a line of summer storms to roll thourgh. Road conditions are probably going to deteriorate quickly when this comes through.
