MesoscaleBanding Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Eyeballing some nice drifts outside. Looks to be a pretty good storm total in the 4-6" range maybe? Hard to tell obviously. Wind is raging & visibility is low even though the heavier snow has moved out. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can use the trash/recycling bins as a gauge of the winds maybe. They're still there as of 6:12AM, lol.

Hassaywx1223 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) I can say first time in my life it sounds like the winds are like a strong/severe storm coming through but the windchill is 0 and it’s ripping outside I’m amazed by it can’t lie to you guys now at least even though it’s not as bad. I can understand why my parents talked about the blizzard of 78 IMG_8811.MOV Edited December 23, 2022 by Hassaywx1223 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak9971 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Power outages really picking up in areas I thought they wouldn't... Georgia has over 100k people without power currently. Texas and South Carolina are another 120k combined. Assuming 10k for the rest of the states which wouldn't be enough but there's no good way to sum them we are sitting at approximately 379,000 customers without power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ak9971 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) Snow has blown around so much in parts of the yard that grass is showing again. Probably 8" piled into my back door. Probably 4.5" is my best estimate from an area that's sheltered from winds. Currently -9 degrees at my house and weather station up the road reported a 37 mph gust not too long ago. Most have been in the high 20s for now. Edited December 23, 2022 by ak9971 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayPSU Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Really hard to tell how much we got…maybe 4” or so? Crazy out! If the power stays on this is a joy to watch!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulaman984 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) Will need ILN to confirm but media is stating all 3 blizzard criteria were met in Cincinnati.

Hassaywx1223 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 you can’t tell what we’re getting I’m stepping in drifts of 2 inches or so then seeing side walk with just ice on it it’s blowing everywhere have fun getting a measurement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWOhioChaser Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) Hmm, let’s see. About .5-.75” maybe. Grass isn’t even completely covered. But the winds though. They’re brutal. 30-40mph with some gusts up to 45. Some minor ground blizzard conditions when gusts roll through. Temp is -1. So first time is a while we’ve dipped below zero. Maybe the snow showers today can get us to the 1” mark. My lowest expectations of having the ground covered haven’t been met yet. Pretty disappointing storm IMBY overall. I had suspicions that we were going to underachieve on amounts and that cold and wind were the major factors. But waking up to still see grass was a major letdown. So…it’s kind of a white-ish Christmas? Edited December 23, 2022 by NWOhioChaser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Hiramite Posted December 23, 2022 Moderators Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) The heavy SWS band just went thru, too bad it was so narrow. Snow to grass top level. Unless we get some redevelopment, lucky to hit NWS "low end" amounts. BUT, my world is white and power is still on so I'm a happy camper.

Have to remember we have snow showers and flurries that’ll develop with lake enhancement and keep going most of the next 18 hours that’ll bring totals up not dramatically but we’re not done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be the first official blizzard since 1978 I’d be skeptical just my opinion. I agree wind criteria certainly met but visibility Im not entirely sure I could agree with that. I would say certainly for an hour while the heavy band was going that was the case but for 3 hours I’m not so sure. Doesn’t take away from the fact that this has been quite the impressive storm so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
