what are people thinking about the precip coming on the 10th?

5", looks super wet and heavy.

5/8" on my grille on my back deck. super wet/sticky snow. great for pelting people with snowballs.

not sticking yet to roads.

You know, looking back at my notes, last year around this time we had a whopper of a storm as well. That one was a mess for plowing.

Observing flakes now.

5 minutes ago I could see the sun barely through the clouds. Now, I can't.

that dog does not look amused.

my faith in the NCEP Model Time-Series is now shattered; it's been "right" all year until just now; they were only calling for about .5" of snow. glad I followed gut at the last minute and prepped last night.

I wish I were on that line.

I'd say 4" on the ground so far, and it's still falling.

I'm so confused. Are we getting something? or not?

I will note that exact same situation here. They did early dismissal, which meant 1pm for us. the roads were mess with multiple spin outs and wrecks on the 3 mile drive from home to the kid's school for pickup. As we were leaving the plows were coming through and laying down salt, and the roads were clearing up. By 3 (normal dismissal time) all the roads were in MUCH better travel shape than at 1.

looks like we're back to small flakes here.
