Never managed to get any radar returns over my house this entire event and yet I have a decent amount.

Streets iced up quickly overnight but the sunlight seeping through the overcast is already strong enough to start the melting again.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Snow seems to be picking up here too. Slightly larger flakes. The sun was doing Nito's work for a bit but this might change that.

I think the MyRadar app works fairly well.

I'm on #teamsnow if this keeps up. Flurries are nice to look at when it doesn't wreak havoc. Plus I don't have to do any shoveling since the sun keeps my path and driveway clean of snow.

Everyone is happy.

I'm going to reverse Nito you now.

Clouds have thickened, filtered sun has disappeared, flakes larger and denser. Seeing accumulation.

Totally agreed. I didn’t follow you guys or expect anything last night so it is certainly a surprise this morning. Snow is still coming down nicely but the temperature went up a bit to 1c now. I believe it won’t last long though.

Yup!

I'm done with them for now. I'll just look outside for the next few days and see what happens.

Follow the models until the event starts and then just kind of roll with it. That’s what I do. :thumbup:
