The flakes have been very tiny here. 

Was thinking the same thing. Do we know if the size is expected to increase as we get into the middle of those larger bands?

Edit: Nvm, I can answer my own question. From the IND AFD update a few minutes ago:

Vertical lift in the lower levels will be robust this evening as well, which should aid
in dendrite size growth and volume as the greater snowfall rates increase. Further compounding
the complexity to the atmosphere is the layer of anomalous warm/moist air steadily advecting
north, eluded to in the prior discussion in regards to the precipitable water.

Thermal profiles indicate that dendrite size should increase marginally over the
next few hours, coupled with the deeper moisture aloft.

It actually looks like they improved a little bit at my location (dead center Carmel) while we were talking about it.

Yeah, I'm starting to see some bigger ones mix in down on 106th, too.

I am a little concerned about the dry slot headed our way but every model is pretty insistent that fills in, so we shall see. Still an awesome storm so far.
