Good morning all! 8.4" officially at CVG and I'd have to put myself in that 8-9" range too. Looking for 2-4" on the backside today so the foot call still well within range. 0.73" QPF at CVG so far. 21 degrees currently.


That wrap around is impressive and. Not breaking up at all. Very impressive ...

Very impressive storm. We have little over an inch and working on another inch. Nice heavy snow band which is impressive. We’re going to end up in the 2-4 range (which is more than I thought we were going to get). Lake effect on top of that once the 850 low passes to our south.

I'm back! I just got done plowing when we had the first round. I had some pingers briefly too and that is because the precip lightened up. The donut hole came thru so I plowed when it occurred. As soon as I finished up, the accumulating snow began again. Better returns are coming in. Dynamic ...

Nice!!.

I'm going by sound, snow is silent, if you can hear it then sleet is mixing in. Some mixing was kind of expected but no model, not a single one, predicts sleet until 9:30-10pm timeframe.

Yes it’s very hard to predict how far the mixing line can go. Models never handle it well. Happens all the ...

It looks like snow in Cincy now too! I’m not ever sure it switched from snow to sleet I’m just looking at traffic cams

Nice to hear!!! I’m rooting for you guys!

Right now I think the snow line is somewhere near Middletown. Still scanning traffic cams to see if this is true.

Mixing line just south of Louisville

Mixing transition line is just north of elizabethtown twitter reports and traffic cams.

Somehow I squeeze out 3.5 inches in the 12z Hrrr. I was hoping to get a break on this one. Lake effect has made my nights very short

Yep even at 8-9 pm 850 temps get real close.

11z Hrrr moved up snow for cincy to between 9-10. Still looking good though!


I saw that and usually a good sign when snow starts earlier around these parts. Light at first but once we get into the afternoon some decent rates for several hours with temps staying in the low-mid 20's. One note ...

11z Hrrr moved up snow for cincy to between 9-10. Still looking good though!

overnight models look like they have shifted south a bit. less ice to the north but prob higher snow totals. major ice storm for much of Kentucky though. they will have a state emergency I would imagine. KC has a blizzard warning issued there and the state has deployed the national guard from what ...

At this point does it matter much what the gfs and euro are showing since they are long range models? How good are they in the short range?


Gfs and Euro are alright in the short range. Right now I think everyone should be paying attention to Hi Rez nam and hourly Hi rez rapid refresh. Most ...

Dry air is really taking a toll on the north side of precip shield on the Nam

Looks like cincy area has a possibility of 1.8 inch per hour snows.

18z nam up

I still don't buy the low getting up into Central KY. I could be wrong certainly. But so could the model. We just don't yet know. Once we see the surface low form this evening in the TX / OK panhandles, the radar will be lighting up too and that'll help us match up some real time data with the ...

Pretty much the same as 12z Hrrr

Same at hour 34 compared to 12z and a little stronger, precip shield should edge north a little bit

Actually stronger at 27, not by much though

Looks pretty close to 12z through 23.

Yep maybe a little weaker
