Burghblizz Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Band in Ohio getting thicker. Hoping that can swing north a little. I got into a little heavier snow, but mostly on the outside looking in still. About a half inch so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burghblizz Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Totals in eastern Ohio are going to be interesting. Places near Steubenville with 4” and a good bit to go. I saw about 2” downtown already but not a lot of reports from the western suburbs yet. Figure some folks there are doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwilson Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I drove through that death band in the city. 279 from the north was completely covered and I passed one vehicle that had clearly spun around. It was snowing so hard snow was accumulating on my hood while I was driving. Massive dinner plate flakes. Once I got beyond the Liberty tunnel you could see the subsidence. Much worse dendrite growth and 19 in the South Hills was mostly just wet, excepting a few spots. The snow started getting a bit heavier in Bethel beyond Mt. Lebo.

Burghblizz Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Airport looks like it’s been catching the northern fringe of the band. 1.5” in the last two hours, with 2” total. Steubenville/Wintersville area is about 25 miles southwest and is pushing 6”. Some of those types of totals will likely translate east. Definitely a nowcast storm. Certainly looked like the sweet spot would be further south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimB Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Official NWS obs at 9pm was 1.9”. Hopefully they can squeeze out another inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
