hawkeye_wx Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 About 1.8" here I guess. I don't have a great spot to measure. My gauge has caught 0.18" of precip, which is probably understating it because there is wind, so the ratio is garbage again. I've been watching the KC radar all day and they are getting blasted. It has been many years since I've had that much snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see the different layers of snow on the ground with the dramatic increase in flake size. Parachutes falling for at least the last 20 minutes. the 88 and 80 corridors look golden for a while.

cyclone77 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Heavier snows seem to be hitting a wall about 5-10 miles south of here the last hour or two. Snowing okay, but much better snows remaining just south. Probably have a 1-1.5" or so out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 the year of being fringed for you, eh? enjoy the snows man! hope it picks up! Yeah it's trying to fight in, but the dry air feeding in from the north is saying get that **** out of here lol. Pouring small flakes the last few hours. Gonna be a much lower ratio than one would expect with a drier snow like this due to flake size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Actually more snow out there than I thought. Just measured a bit under 2". Must be adding up quicker than it looks. Still pouring small flakes, but it must be efficiently accumulating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
