Seems like they were pretty bullish with my area this afternoon afternoon as well. They have me at >0.15 ice accumulation which seems to be a bit excessive.

tuanis Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Saturation underway. Wonder if precip breaks out ahead of schedule. LOT is saying 6 PM up here, hi-res models say 7-9 PM. Just picked up a bunch of dog turds half-buried in the glacier that's been around for more than 3 weeks before they get snowed over. Pretty stiff NE wind out there. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to go sledding in an old cow pasture growing up. Always brought a rubber mallet to beat the metal sleds round again as hitting a frozen cowpie at full speed would leave quite a dent. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natester Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 [beginrant] Saturation veeeeeeeery slow here. Heavy returns overhead and yet only a few flakes are seen. That will likely change in 30 minutes. [endrant] 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It snowed 6 inches in Poplar Grove right after Christmas, and it hasn’t gotten warm enough to melt to unbury the Christmas lawn inflatable that’ll be further buried under the snow & ice tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should set up a webcam, and we can all guess the day you'll finally be able to retrieve it. I guess that yooper webcam is dead. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our security doorbell is supposed to have a camera, but the wifi signal we have isn’t good enough to work consistently. And I’m sure our golden retriever pup would just attempt to eat the camera.

McHenrySnow Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Wind definitely starting to pick up. I think I'm in the minority, but I hate blowing and drifting. I like heavy snow in calm wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 It took a while to saturate the atmosphere once the green returns spread over us on radar. Just in the last 15 minutes, however, we went from flurries to mod-heavy snow with large flakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortex Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Spitting snow here. NWS knocked us down to 1-2 with .10- .20 of crappy ice. Good luck up north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Pixie dust fest here the past hour or so with maybe a tenth down. Better returns moving in from the south in the next hour will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, sell the ice amount. We won’t get that much total precip. And 1-2” of snow looks about right. And then freezing drizzle. All in all, a totally forgettable “storm” for us. The beat goes on... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
