dta1984 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Had just over an inch last night of fluffy snow. January is definitely making up for a dud December. Running season total right around 50". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectOH Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 No snow whatsoever (except a few light flurries) here since Monday. I wonder how much the lakeshore towns such as Mentor & Painesville have gotten since Monday...Anyone have any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the heavier snow showers were localized but they must have moved through chesterland before moving south down this way.

I’m in the far eastern part of south Russell near the Newbury border I live about 3/4 miles east of 306 around 2 miles north of 322...far northeastern part of Chester twp. Looked to me like some of the snow showers moved SSE from west of my area to your area, thus missing my place. Also, the cells seemed smaller and less organized as compared to recent events. Looks like the freezing of the Lake might be doing its dirty work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a great snow pack out there for a change. Hopefully it can survive next weeks warm up and rain. Maybe we will see a few changes in the models over the coming days.

Next week's storm is still iffy. The overnight models trended a little colder, but colder trend was erased by today's midday models. Still have to see what the ECMWF has to say. These Chicago-Detroit storms have to be watched as we could get a nasty mix of snow and ice or if the storm strengthens, it can blast rain & 50°+ this way. There is nothing that melts a snowpack (even one that is like concrete) faster than several hours of 50° and rain. Keep fingers and toes crossed. Lol!

Interesting 12z Euro run with a 1040 HP pressing in from the NW. Not certain I can see a low moving NW and bullying that out of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOH Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Picked up 3 inches since last night. That was definitely unexpected. Looks the arctic front stalled for awhile over this area. Still snowing nicely. This is one of the deeper snowpacks in recent memory IMBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Yeah this snow made for a fun morning commute. Had 1.5" in Reminderville when I left but it was snow still good, estimated 2" driving up through Solon. Still snowing good now with a little flare-up of lake enhancement in and around the Cleveland area, may squeeze out another inch or so in spots which will push a few locations to 3 or 4" of snow. Next week is tricky...a stronger, consolidated low pressure would want to cut. But some models and ensemble members have weaker frontal waves as the Arctic front sags south and have a lot of QPF as snow or ice for northern OH. Let's see if we can reel another one in...

IIRC March 2015 was the last time we had a pack this deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpbob21 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Wow. Some really epic 0z model runs. Still too early to get too invested in it but you sure have to like what the models are showing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I'll hopefully be on the AFD and long term grids again today. An impactful system looks quite likely. Wouldn't rule out it inching back north, though the overall trend the last 2-3 days has been to sink the system a little farther south. Plenty of moisture to work with so I think warning criteria wintry impacts are almost a slam dunk, question is where that sets up though. A straight rain to snow transition seems unlikely too so some ice and sleet are probably in play somewhere. If the rainy side of the system impacts areas with a deep snow pack that could cause flooding issues too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOH Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Good to see the models slide south a bit today. Definitely a sharp cut off on the south side. 18z gfs had a 1050 hp parked over MN which would likely prohibit any extreme northward movement.

Tried to leave things as open ended as possible today and just give comments on what would happen if we saw the snowier or wetter solution pan out.

We got about 20 inches a couple weeks ago. Another 12-15+ would be amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
