Hoosier Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Just did my measurement, and came up with around 4.5" here at work on the southeast side. Thought that might be high, but considering the drifting...and seeing this report from 8:00 am, I may be close. Steady fatty flake snow here right now. Beautiful. 0800 AM SNOW LAFAYETTE 40.41N 86.87W 01/02/2014 M4.1 INCH TIPPECANOE IN PUBLIC My total is around yours too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 looks like a minor push west near Chicago Storm Riding the edge with SN. Probably +SN in the heart of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeenerWx Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Thinking probably 1-2" of LES here in Northern Jasper County later this afternoon/evening. There is an outside chance of reaching our (whimpy) average seasonal total by early next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoar_Frost Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Had 7.6" in the 24 h ending at 12z. Storm total through 12z is 10.5". Snow has decreased in intensity in the last 90 minutes; there are some peeks of sun, even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwohweather Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Happy New Years from Toledo! This neighborhood is just outside a small country town though and the field is at the end of the street which may be contributing to our wind and drifts.

Blizzard23 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Cool pics! Is there a roof line just above those peaks? Yes there is a roofline right above. The deck overlooks the lake which is about 60ft below the deck level. The views are amazing all year long. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCNYILWX Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 going to look so silly when 20"+ amounts are all over N Cook/Lake and ORD comes in with 9 or something stupid like that Problem is that because we're trusting those reports and sending them out, and I do think they're legit, it only heightens the contrast given that they're only a few miles from ORD. Maybe we can push for them to get a snow fence after the controversy with this event. https://www2.ucar.edu/atmosnews/features/4477/how-deep-snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 This will be one of the more impressive west side Lake Michigan events in recent memory by the time it's over.
