kbotc Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Is ORD going to beat LAF? What are they both at now? I'm looking at blowing snow, so it's difficult to estimate, but I think I've hit about 6.5" maybe 7" judging on my dog's legs, but if I pull out a ruler, I can probably find a foot...

jbcmh81 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Record daily snowfall in Columbus, with 6.9". This beats the old record of 4.2" set in 1977. Snowfall since midnight has pushed the total past 8", all falling since 8pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppsRunner Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 We were sitting at nearly 3.5" here right now. Not terribly impressive. Hopefully this wrap around moisture doesn't end up being lame too. RAP has a bullseye of close to .6-.7" of QPF from midnight thru tomorrow morning here so hopefully the second wave isn't so boring.

Powerball Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Continued dry air issues and quick progression is going to keep things in check and from overachieving around the area. There are no dry air problems any more (lower levels are saturated). Just continued poor lift as evident by the lack of any decent Omega for example. That said, lift appears to be finally improving with support from the upper level low moving in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Hope this keeps up. Looks like we may be on the southern edge of the snow bands so far.

What snow is falling is pretty big, but there's quite a bit of sleet mixing in. 850 low is passing over IND, and then probably over or close to you. WAA doing its dirty work.
