I can actually confirm the pink over my hills is accurate. Cracked 17 for the season so far

I will say down in the mountain upslope regions those numbers are light. Some spots are at 100” this season

I was in the home run zone lol

My 6.8” of snow melted down to .51” liquid, for a ratio of 13.3:1. We had a couple hours up front where nothing was accumulating, so the actual snow that did accumulate was a good bit higher ratio. Had the kids out sledding and shoveling, now have a fire going outside. Nothing better than fire and snow. Great day in the sun. Cheers to American Weather!

This should work for you: https://forecast.weather.gov/data/obhistory/KLNS.html

Edit: oh you mean from a previous time. Sorry - no idea! 

[canderson]

Cold weather advisory is out for the LSV, midnight tonight through Wednesday evening.

Thanks, that would be perfect, but was looking for the 16th and 11th, basically I'd like to know the start time of snow and end time.  Just a day short on the link for the 16th though.  Maybe weatherunderground?, have to check there.  Don't need anything super official.

Up to 21 here now, already 2 over the forecast high. I alluded to this last week...cold, regardless of the extent of the air mass, often seems overdone. At least for today, that's going to hold true. 

In fairness - 21 was the highest that I got. Shortly after posting this the temp plateaued and has been bouncing between 19 and 21 for the past few hours. Original forecast ended up being pretty darn accurate.

All good now, weatherunderground worked for hourly obs.  Thanks @canderson

THAT...is a great picture. One to cherish years from now when as adults you can share this picture with them. Thanks for sharing.

If you come into the city tmrw you’ll see a pretty decent increase in snow here, judging by the yard and road status in this pic. 
 

Also bring the kids - I can put them to work shoveling more haha

Deal! Normally yes but this week I don’t come in until Wednesday. We should barely lose any pack the next few days.

That threat in the 160's is one to watch.

I think so too. Love some old fashioned overrunning. I prefer "easier" ways to win. This deep winter day after a 7" snow is awesome. That's what I went with after the extra bands last night and this morning. Another spotter from CV sent in 7 on the CTP PNS, sounds about right.

19 was the high here. Gonna be a very cold night tonight.

For early next week it would be nice to see a NS wave time better and give the moisture a reason to go around that SE high instead of attack it.  It is snowing under the highest point of pressure on this map.

It is going to take a long of sand shovels to clear the roads in Florida.  Actually it probably does not lay on the roads but grass may get a snowmagedon.
