Chicago WX Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Snow still coming down pretty good, but smaller flakes now. I'd guess about 1.5" down and I'll measure for sure in about 20 minutes. Where exactly is Etobicoke, relative to Toronto? I was just wondering when looking at the King City radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see you updated our total without my input. Average of measurements comes out to a hair over 4" so no big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeastFromTheEast Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Looks like a total of 5" from this event. Last measurement was mid afternoon and I was at about 4.3", and there is at least .5" on the driveway right now. So, I am figuring about 4.8" to 5" total snow. Nice storm for us. Biggest one of the season officially at ORD. Looking back just a few days we definitely did better than what the models were showing. And we beat LAF for a change..

Moneyman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 "Offically" ended up with 3.5 inches here. Not a bad storm at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrick7032 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 So far it looks like Macomb, Wayne, and Monroe counties are the winners in SE Michigan with 4.5 to 5 inches. http://www.crh.noaa.gov/news/display_cmsstory.php?wfo=dtx&storyid=62628&source=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 got around 3.5" here with it still snowing pretty good, looks like I may be in a perfect spot for overnight. Wind is also blowing. Been a decent storm, not a major storm, but decent. Guess a lot will depend on the overnight hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that report came in earlier around 8pm from the spotter or so, we had a bunch of snow after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Where exactly is Etobicoke, relative to Toronto? I was just wondering when looking at the King City radar. I'm the red dot And even better than I thought. 2.4" through midnight. There's some drifting snow but I measured in a few locations and I'm pretty confident.

KeenerWx Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 like 4.1 lol. I wouldn't even bother to edit if I were you. With that, we go above our seasonal average and are within about 13" of putting 2010/2011 as a Top 10 LAF Winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 5.3" here in Cleveland, with a nice heavy band ripping through downtown. The commute will be terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Still snowing lightly, not sure on totals with lots of drifting, this was certainly the first snow of the season which felt like a legit winter storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajdos Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I'm positive I got over 6" of snowfall, and for some reason NWS has 4.3 for Sterling Heights, No way. We even got an addition inch over night, which I didn't expect.. more so l/e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 I received 5.3" total in NE Detroit. It's funny too because the snow seems much deeper than the half foot atorm in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Still snowing very nicely. We're somewhere in the 4-5" range. An overperformer, no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
