MAIDEsNow Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Thanks so much. Going to track snow in both spots (best I can as it's about 35 mile drive from my Edinboro home) next couple / three years til we build and move there permanently. I'm sure for most LES events and our occasional synoptic storm I'll stay up there. Most likely will put webcam at the cabin property as well.

dta1984 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 The storm for tomorrow night seems to be creeping northward. Might be good for a few inches at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was kind of hoping to be done with the snow. There's a surprising amount of glacier like snow still on the ground in the shady areas. Most of my yard is still covered.

dta1984 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Just shy of 5" here. Definitely a bit of a surprise. Now over 100" for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Measured 4.9” here about 40 minutes ago. Nice surprise. It’s been snowing since so I’m sure I’m at or a bit over 5” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpbob21 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Nothing but a few flakes here. It's amazing how snow goes out of it's way to avoid this area. Congrats to you guys out east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dta1984 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Decent lake effect band this morning. I've got .25-.5", but a definite increase in flake size and accumulation in Solon. Probably an inch here. West side appears to be doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 1.3” here. Wasn’t paying much attention and a bit of a surprise. CLE even reported 1”/hr rates in one of their hourly obs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Hate to say it, but I think there could be a few inches of snow in parts of the snowbelt Monday night into Tuesday morning. Enough instability for lake enhancement, with a potent vort max dropping across the lake bringing a nice shot of synoptic moisture and lift. Winds swing from WSW to WNW as it goes by. Think there's a general area of snow showers that moves through giving much of north-central and NE OH a dusting, with a band of more robust LES that starts off near the shore and swings inland across all of the snowbelt and probably the Cleveland area early Tuesday that could drop a few inches on the northern Snowbelt and maybe a couple of inches on the Cleveland metro.

OHweather Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Let's see how this does. Actually a pretty good W to WSW flow setup later tonight into Tuesday morning with a deep layer of steep lapse rates, synoptic moisture and moisture from Lake Michigan, and a decent shot of synoptic lift from a shortwave moving by Tuesday morning. I think there's a pretty intense W-E band for a time tomorrow morning with 1-2" per hour rates in the northern Snowbelt. Assuming it hits the higher terrain for any length of time, several inches should be doable with temps below freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAIDEsNow Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 1.3" overnight. Snowing moderately at the moment, small flake size. As of this mornings measurement, puts me the exact seasonal total from last year, 154.8. Should move past that soon. Never would have guessed that at the end of Feb.

dta1984 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Right at 2" on the deck. Probably half of that in the yard. There were some impressive squalls earlier, especially in the northern areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAIDEsNow Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 3" yesterday at the house. Went to cabin after work, about 6" out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I’m hoping ERI doesn’t get enough snow tonight to hit 200” on the season. I do believe they’ve gotten 170-180” which is still very impressive, but given obvious measuring issues at times this winter with bad over measures I hope they don’t get the distinction of being the only large city to get a 200” winter.

Well the snow spotters at ERI were just quoted saying they are not measuring snow by the generally accepted guidelines of 4 measurements every 6 hours... measuring in 3 hour intervals during the day when compression is highest then at an 8 hour interval overnight when compression is less. Also they are summing 5 daily measurements instead of the accepted 4. I believe this should make the data unofficial!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Just tallied up my spread sheets...a total of 93.5” here this winter here. Certainly not bad, a little above average. Would give this winter a B here, but can see how grades range from A to D across northern OH and NW PA dependent on your exact location. After last winter’s crap fest and spending the previous 4 in SE OH, it was nice. And, this will be my last winter in NE OH, for a while at least. Will be moving to New Jersey for a meteorology job in July. It will be a reduction in annual snow, but it is in an area that can see big snows from those Nor’Easters and is in the somewhat snowier NW corner of the state which averages an ok amount. Plus, they have clients in the OV/GL (including Cleveland) so I’m sure I’ll check in and live vicariously at times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to be a pretty consistent light to mod snow year from early Dec up until the second week of Feb. Then of course a booming march, which was the highest snowfall total month at 39.75". My 5 year average from measuring (estimated ) in Newbury is at 101.2". Congrats on the job!! Though you'll miss the lake effect, I'm sure experiencing a few noreasters will be awesome. It's been great to have you in our subforum to share your forecasting and knowledge. Make sure to stop back by! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is bitter sweet for sure, for a number of reasons. I’m happy to get a job in the field, this one seems like a good fit for me, I’m not a big fan of moving away but ultimately I have more reasons to take the job than not...a lack of met jobs that you can get into right out of college around here is a big reason. Either way, I’m sure I’ll still drop in at times as time permits me to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always look forward to your forecasts and input throughout the Winter. As DTA mentioned, we had over 100" of snow out this way so no complaints. We made a late rally which changed things dramatically. Good luck with the new job and take care! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEOH Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 CLE will be -6.1 for the month of April. After a -4.0 departure in March I'd say we are due for some warmer weather. There were a few flurries around yesterday morning before the clouds scoured. out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HO1088 Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I was at Cuyahoga County Airport today in Richmond Heights (KCGF), and I was told that an AWOS will be installed by the winter, on the east side of the airport near Bishop Rd. 24 hr observations will be available for the first time in the airport's history. It's one of the few airports in the country where manual observations are still taken only when the control tower is open. I also noticed a ceilometer and visibility sensor on top of a roof at the airport (odd placement for such sensors). I don't think they are associated with the official weather that comes from CGF, not sure who owns them but found it unusual as I assume they are private?
