snowlover2 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Got another inch of snow in the last 30 minutes. Up to 2" now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I'll be honest, the HRRR has been crap this year. RAP is very hit and miss... but I'm not expecting any big shockers. Still hoping my 1-3" call pans out. It'll be nice to see how long this lake effect band stays right over the city. Impressive gusts happening right now. I'm happy to have something. Plus, it's a pretty cool synoptic setup! Yeah, it's fun just to be able to track something again. Plus this storm has all sorts of cool meso-scale features in play. I think my 2-4" call is in trouble, especially the higher end. The only thing that might save me is that it's a storm total call so it'll include what falls tomorrow night.

snowstormcanuck Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Thanks for the input Mike. Would be different to see something more than a couple inches at a time. Those Cdn folks looking for snow should be moving to NS. My cousin in Sydney NS is looking at a blizzard currently. Must be the 5th winter storm at least since Jan. And this winter has been mild compared to the last 2 years............... They get some absolute brutes in the Maritimes. They are unsurpassed snow kings (I guess outside of the Rockies/Coastal Mountains)...but I could never adjust to their folksy Celtic culture.

I'm not aware of very many Italians in N.S. so probably not a good fit, But don't mistake folksy for dull. Most Maritimers I know love a good party..............

I'm 4th or 5th generation Canadian at least, so the Scottish is very diluted, but I'm always looking for a deal as well. I guess they call frugality 'being Scotch' for a reason. and now back to the weather (as boring as it is....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I wonder if ILN or RLX are close to pulling the warning trigger for that mesoscale band in southern OH. We're just starting to get into it here, instantaneous rates have easily been an inch per hour at times with quarter to golf ball sized aggregates falling. Not sure if the best of the banding stays jussst to my north or not looking at radar, RAP and HRRR look pretty locked and loaded. A very deep layer of steep lapse rates and a nice band of forcing FTW here or close to here it looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very deep layer of steep lapse rates and a nice band of forcing FTW here or close to here it looks like. I'm surprised that ILN hasn't added Montgomery and Greene to the WWA. I'm on the east side of Dayton and sitting at 2.5" and still snowing. 3" seems likely which is the threshold here for a WWA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Welcome to the synoptic wintertime disappointment that's London. Hours of precip. and it's cold rain. It's usually LES or bust around here. What do you make of the squall potential the next couple days? EC finally mentioned a couple periods for LES, but the Buffalo WRF that I looked at showed the best activity both west and east at various times. Not much in the city. Same here! Snowing in all flippin directions....Yawn. I'm Italian. I need a constant stream of yelling and swearing. Lol! I've got the Pennsylvania Irish in me, so I love to laugh, but don't tick me off! On the scoreboard here....0.1". So no shutout for this area. Snow is a lot more west then modeled. Looks to over achieve overnight for much of eastern southern lower. Same here. Misery loves company.

TugHillMatt Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 There is just something maddening about seeing ALL this precip. on the radar while you're stuck in the same dry slot for hours...and hours...and hours....

cyclone77 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Haven't had accumulating snow from this event since early this morning when we received our 0.2". Had off and on flurries during the day and evening, but now we should get one last bout of accumulating snow with this final band about to move through. Could get another 0.1-0.2" out of it. Sure hope the road crews are ready to tackle this beast or it's gonna be one hell of a tough commute in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
