CentralNebWeather Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Dry air here is keeping the fun out of Lincoln for now.I was wondering if that might happen as the radar looks impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Just measured 4.2”. Plenty of blowing and since it is like feathers, it’s tough to be precise so this is as close as I can get now. Local radio says between 4-5”, obviously not official yet, but heavy snow continues. Could I hit 6” before this wave let’s up? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minny_Weather Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 The dry air dome is noticeably beginning to fill in on radar. Still have a ways to go before I see any appreciable rates here, but actually getting moisture down to the surface is a good start. 16.2*F. 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

CentralNebWeather Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Short range models look to inch the 2nd wave tonight a little further north. More love for locations I80 and south. Still really good for Kansas over to KC and @Clinton. Let’s see if it can overproduce also for other Nebraskans in here. Quite a winter wonderland here with previous snow and new snow. Even now getting some minor drifting as wind picks up and the snow is so light. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks really good for your area. My brother in Shawnee doesn’t have a snow blower and said he is sick of scooping. I may get some decent amounts from the 2nd wave. Such a surprising day. Models didn’t handle the 1st wave snow band well at all. I’m sure there will be some changes as wave 2 approaches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Good sized flakes have been coming down for the past 30 or so minutes. I'm not sure why it is having such a hard time accumulating. Still just a dusting. There's not much wind so that's not the reason. 16.5*F.

CentralNebWeather Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Here comes round 2 snow. Hoping for 3” or more. Along the border is golden it looks like. We are 30 miles north of Kansas border. It is blowing quite a bit, so the new snow and previous snow will easily drift overnight into Sunday. I could end the weekend with 6” or maybe more combining the separate waves. Not bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 A decent dot of returns popped up outta nowhere on radar and now we're getting a brief bout of moderate snow. About as big of a flake size as you can possibly get at 9.3*F. Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

The temps have dropped though so I guess everything has frozen over since then. 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.

Clinton Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Lots of wind driven snow falling it's going to be hard to measure but I would guess around 2 or 3 inches so far. Nice way to welcome in March. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clinton Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 As it becomes more light out I would guess about 2 inches has fallen. Looking at the radar there looks to be a nice heavy band developing south of Topeka stretching back to Salina so my hopes for a 5 to 6 inch snow are still alive. This baby is flying though!

CentralNebWeather Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 I would guess I got a couple inches but no way to know with the amount of blowing and drifting we had. Still light snow here with -24 wind chill. Our church and most in my area are cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny_Weather Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 You southeast Nebraska snow-dome guys have more snow this season than we do over here.Yeah hopefully this is the start of a good stretch of Winters. Usually when we have one we have more. I think we're done with any appreciable accumulations for the rest of the season. Obviously March and April could bring a couple stat-padders, but the pattern looks to be more climo-favored in the coming weeks and here that means rain. I think the snow in next weekend's storm will stay North of us and we may get some on the backside. 1 Quote Formerly *ahem*: LNK_Weather, TOL_Weather, FAR_Weather, MSP_Weather, IMoveALot_Weather.
