Re: February 18-19th 2025 High Ratio Snow Event

I called in a WFH day, have multiple employees stuck on the road for over 2 hours now, lots of accidents. It doesn't help that the Ohio is flooding so some alternate routes are closed.

Nice heavy snow squall. A few of these for top dressing and I'll be happy!

Re: Pack Refresher Storm - Jan 10-11th

Good snow here as well. Hard to tell but I'd say a quick 1/2 inch already.

Re: January 5-6th, 2025 First Legit Winter Storm of the Season

10" in 3 locations, though it is starting to drift. I'm happy with 10 and I bet we got 11 since there is ice sandwiched in the middle.

You always round up lol
Ha. I think with the sleet we had crushing it down a bit this is easily over 10 inches. When was the last time we had 10" of snow in a single storm?

Flightradar24, I love it when the trucks show up. They are trying to clear the runways.

I'm sure this might fade but still a lot of radar echos out there.

Back end of the heavy precip moving into NKY now,

I seriously doubt we get much more tomorrow, the backend of these storms always promises and never really delivers. I'll take what we got and be happy with more if it happens. :) Sleet will compact the snow so accurate total measurements will be ...

Thanks for the link!

Moderate snow with some sleet, but still mostly snow and coming down quite nicely here. I'll measure again in an hour to see where we stand.

Silent out now and snowing at a good clip. I have no idea how to judge moderate or heavy but it's accumulating quickly.

Re: January 5-6th, 2025 First Legit Winter Storm of the Season

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.

Re: January 5-6th, 2025 First Legit Winter Storm of the Season

Sleet here in Oakbrook. Noticed the radar looked good over us but no flakes. Can hear the sleet hitting the ground. If this stays sleet our totals bust way low IMO, we need the next 4 hours to be heavy snow.

Re: January 5-6th, 2025 First Legit Winter Storm of the Season

Snow is a lot more scattered than I expected. In a heavy band right now but I feel like if we keep missing this pockets of heavy snow the overall total will be less than expected. OR If we end up getting the heavy bands it could be much more than expected.
