Been snowing for 3 hours and there’s probably 2” on the ground? Hard to tell with the wind and I’m eyeballing from inside. What winds at there.

CoachLB Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Deformation band pounded my area. Just plowed all my lots and shut it down. Near 0 visibility. 2-3 foot drifts. Roads are horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilly84 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Latest hrrr. Dont know how accurate itll be but if it's even close could go as one of the most impressive turnarounds I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Still pounding here. Shame the models couldn't be wrong on track and this thing head due north lol. Cant really measure do to the 40 mph winds but I'd guess we've gotten 5" or more. I know I've gotten 3" the last 2 hrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woke up at about 12:30 and looked out side and have never seen such ferocity of snow fall and wind. The entire outdoors was white....no need to even turn on an outdoor light. We ended up with about 5 or 6 inches here....wind blown so hard to tell. Started shoveling at 6:15 and it was 15 degrees. Finished at 7:30 and it had dropped to 7. In retrospect....if yesterday's .92 inches of rain would have been snow....we would have been dead on with the original model runs showing a foot and a half. Oh well....with the pattern we are in....no doubt more chances to come. The remnants of last weekend's ten inches absorbed the rain with the temperature never getting above 33 yesterday. It is solid ice under the latest snow. The snow/ice cover should last into March....rare territory for southern Ohio indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vespasian70 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I think we ended up with 4" from the deformation band last night, kind of hard to tell with all the blowing and drifting. Looks like a snow globe out there this morning. Looks like some potential out there in the long range for stuff to track. Glad to have winter back! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually a horrible system for most. We were saved somewhat by the defo bands. For example in my area models were showing 11-20" 0z Friday. We got half inch of zr and half inch of sleet, then around 5" of snow thanks to the banding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were forecasted most of the week for 4-8” and ended up with 0.8” of snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hard to measure, but after a drive around ....5-6".... Jay? This had a huge local variability with snow amounts probably due to the convective nature. There were areas where it looked like they got 8 or 10 inches and only a couple miles away, maybe 3 or 4. Curious what you central Ohio guys think on amounts in your back yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye1994 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Driving to work this morning looks like Germantown got anywhere from 4-6 inches feel as rain mostly of the day, turned to freezing rain around 6:30-7 , then straight snow around 8:30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osubrett2 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I’d estimate 5” here, which isn’t bad considering it snowed for a 5-6 hour window. The wind was pretty spectacular, had a few drifts of 2-2.5’ next to my garage which is a decent size for being in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad considering it only lasted 5 or 6 hours. The lake effect snow showers this morning was a nice touch too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilly84 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 4 hours ago, Angrysummons said: The connective nature of the banking definitely led to a lot wide variance of totals. CMH reported 3.6 for example, but I am sure that there was more in other parts of the city. Lima had areas of 7 inches(official total but others around 8-9 inches(West/North Lima). Doesn't look like to much going on until the end of the month. Going to need a clipper or two to come in and refresh after it gets melted into a iceberg. One of few times I enjo9one of your posts lol, however I do disagree with your last paragraph. The Thursday system isnt out of the water yet. The gem tries to bring it up the Appalachian mountains. I am, however, ignoring it until this current system is off the coast and we get undisturbed sampling. Even if it doesnt pan out most models are showing a clipper next Saturday that looks good for 4-6" somewhere in Ohio. As for Thursday system, not writing it off until Tuesday 12z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frog Town Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Up in Toledo we averaged about 8". I really feel for you guys down south. I can't tell you how many times I was sitting in the same position as you, only to watch the whole thing fall apart and hit Michigan. It's a crappy feeling.
