Sitting under about 3 here in most of those. Not a bad last look. I see the radars filling in as everything saturates, so only a matter of time now. I think 2-3 is a good call for me. Yeah, that snow out by KVNX is already overperforming. Definitely a win. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Hole Posted January 15 Author Report Share Posted January 15 It was 1F at my place again overnight, but -3F at the Tulsa airport which is a record for the date.

KTPmidMO Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 Snow seems a little further south in Kansas than what short term models were predicting? RAP and HRRR saying just to the east of Salina, KS could pick up 4 inches of snow. No big models were picking up on that and RAP and HRRR seem to be reflecting that at the last minute as well. anyone close to these areas? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWS ICT has put the Salina area and points nearby in a WWA for up to three inches. I have picked up 1/2" in the past three hours and could see making it up to an inch easily. Radar has shown heavier returns generally south of I-70 so higher totals there make sense. 4 Quote 23-24 seasonal snow total: 17.8" (as of 3/9/24) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can be satisfied with it. The only thing it lacked was in amount of snow, at least for me. We still had bare patches when it was over, plenty of grass blades sticking through, etc. In that sense it didn't quite have that deep snow cover feel that you can get. I suppose if we want to get super picky it was pretty much entirely composed of small flakes, so the snow ratio never got that high. One of my favorite types of snow is the super light fluffy flakes. I didn't get that this go around. But that said, you can't have everything. So yes, it was a satisfying event. It was certainly enough that I am happy with the way it turned out! Having several days of subfreezing conditions while it's sunny has really made up for the lower amounts. The wind wasn't too bad either. Obviously, the temperature the snow fell at was amazing all on its own. 1 hour ago, OKwx2k4 said: Our forecasters also did an excellent job, in my opinion, given the changes and spread sometimes going into the last 48 hours of the forecast period leading up to the start.

Stormy Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 (edited) Sorry guys for not keeping you posted on my weather here lately. If I check this forum only maybe twice a week there's no way I can keep up during winter storms! Lol Anyway we had some epic winter snows here in se. Iowa with approximately 2'+ of snow last week, which probably makes for the snowiest week that I can remember of! We got 13" from the first storm about a week ago and another approximately 11.5" from the second storm. There's snow everywhere, but it blew into big drifts after the last storm making it a little easier to walk in a few places. It was difficult walking anywhere with snow reaching up to my knees at times! Some of the lower level house windows in the walk-in basement are half covered by snow. And the snowplows had to mount the huge blades like back in the 2007- '08 winter. Plus the road guys also used other equipment to clear roads. There were stranded people all over during the storms. I forgot to mention the weak system between the two big storms also produced only 1" of snow. Edited January 16 by Stormy 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a fan of bitter cold, but that's to be expected with deep snow. It now has been below zero for approximately 2 days. Oops, I just noticed this comment should probably just be in the January thread. I'll just add a comment of the cold temperatures which should make it a little more relevant to this thread.
