buckeye Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I would think that once you see snow, it isn't going to go back to rain. Not on the western fringes at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 About 6 miles west of 71 here so I may be effed! That's Lewis Center??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoistWx Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Getting some solid snow here just south of Newark. Starting to recoat the walkway by my house at least! Radar makes it look like I'm right on the rain/snow line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vespasian70 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Very light snow here. Not enough for accumulation at 34F That's how we started out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayPSU Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'm in Huber Ridge which is about 3 exits east of I-71 on 270, so looking at radar I'm getting optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Powell. I used to work in LC oh ok, now I remember that. You'll still get in on whatever we do here in Westerville. I've never seen a sig gradient between Westerville and Powell. Now a location like Hilliard might be a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better in the east, of course, but it is setting up far enough west that I bet even the western burbs get a decent accumulation. Actually, even Madison County doesn't look to do too bad.

buckeye Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 That's the circumference of a circle with a diameter 1.0" Well the last big storm in the area, the sref was off by about 6" for us, we got 0, it had a mean of 6.. Since we can't have a negative amount, I'm assuming the margin goes the other way and we end up with 9.14" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoistWx Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'm up on N 21st street. Starting to pick up here too. Roads just look slushy. I live close to the arboretum (if you know where that is), about 5 miles south. Haven't gotten a good look at the road yet since it's pretty low traffic, but guessing it'd look pretty similar. Feeling better about tonight as a whole. With things switching over already, I'm thinking we get some solid snow out of this. Especially with some of those nice radar returns already showing up.

You should be switching to heavy snow shortly. Nice returns moving up this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowcaine Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Still sticking with my 1-3" call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 4K NAM has 3.5" in CMH now... unless this thing really falls apart on the western edge, 3" seems like a solid bet looking at radar. But then again, it's Columbus so no potential disappointment should ever be underestimated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 Sitting at 33.7F, so we are close to being cold enough. It looks like a few extremely mangled flakes may be making it down but for all intents it's still raining here, not too surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vespasian70 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I wonder if ILN will be hoisting winter storm warnings for any of the area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbcmh81 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I wonder if ILN will be hoisting winter storm warnings for any of the area? Radar looks great right now. If it continues, I could definitely see warning criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbcmh81 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Interesting that ILN actually lowered accumulations for Columbus in the most recent update... 1-3" vs. 2-4". ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
