Friday-
My final total is about 3″.
Winter storm warnings eh?
Have a good weekend! RJB
Hooray!! hooray!! It’s a snow day!!
8:30pm-
It was light snow for most of the day. I have right around 2″ down, maybe a little more in the driveway.
Our winter storm warning is now a winter weather advisory. The NWS is calling for another 1-3 tonight.

Greetings and welcome!!
We are under a winter storm warning as I type. The TV says that we could get 4-7″. The NWS says 2-4 today and 3-5 tonight.
I get that it is the first storm of the year and people get all excited, but it is just a clipper.
The two things that could lead to higher that typical 1-3 or 2-4 is that it is a little slower moving than a typical clipper, and there is a chance of some lake enhancement behind the storm.
Still, 5-9″ out of a clipper? I’d bet against that.
Watching the morning news as I type this I see that at least one station has come back down to earth and has us in the 3-4″ range. That I’m on board with. I’d be surprised to see 6+.
There is another small storm coming for about Monday. I would expect maybe a 1-3 or 2-4″ snow out of that.
That sounds like a great start right?
Looking ahead the GFS has us in the path of a strong southern storm for the 27th. There is a lot of precip with it, but it is showing as almost all rain.
I’m not sure if that is a disaster or the ingredients for a beautiful ice base. That is 6 days out, for now the focus is on today’s storm.
We are expecting the snow to start about noon, maybe a little earlier. I will update later with snow totals.
Have a good Thursday and thank you for visiting!
