Stebo Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Snowing decently hard down here, as a matter of fact it is snowing harder now than it did my entire shift last night as I am at 1SM now and the lowest I got to last night was 1 1/2SM.

Whitelakeroy Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Arctic front must be moving through now as winds are picking up and getting gusty. This afternoon was a very nice surprise here with over an inch from that heavier band that set up here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Looks like a fresh 0.2" here with the front so far. Still snowing lightly. Maybe some meager enhancement with the NW flow from Georgian Bay. Looks like some embedded convective elements from the Bay are drifting down here.

BuffaloWeather Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 1.5" overnight and 4.7" with round 2. 6.2" storm total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 The two rounds of snow yesterday were 1.4" from the early morning round (0.09" liquid) and then 1.0" of sugar snow from the afteroon round (0.09" liquid).. Ratios were rather low, traffic was a nightmare, but the snow is so pretty and deep out. Cannot believe we see this kind of snowpack two winters in a row! The density is nowhere near last year but we are at 1.5" water content now. Also...February snowfall is at 19.0" at DTW (18.9" imby) 4 days into the month. I have been saying it every year now but what has been happening in February the last decade+ has been mind-blowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
