CentralNebWeather Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 This is the 48 hour snowfall map from NWS Hastings. It has me in the 12-18” color and it lists Holdrege at 14”. Might be a smidgen high, but maybe we had more from 6 pm last night until 9 am this morning than I thought. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 The total snow on my three snow boards is 6.8", 4", and 3". I'm going with 6.8" . I'll never know exactly what I got, but there's no way I only got 3-4". I really need to find additional spots in which to measure following windy storms. Maybe I can still use all the current boards, but add a couple boards in some drifty spots downwind and average them all. 1 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a couple 8s on the north side this morning, but I'm not super confident in the reliability of those.

I would guess it is close to 4 though. Still coming down pretty good, so might end up with 5 to 6 inches or so, which is pretty decent this year. Radar is starting to get holes in it though. Awesome, another MI poster. Welcome! We just had a heavy band move through NE GR. 1-2" an hour of fluffy stuff.

snowstorm83 Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Of course I knew I wouldn't get 20+ like some of the Kuchera maps had, but this was still on the higher end of realistic guidance/forecasts. Even Norfolk got 6-7", so farther north solutions verfied. Falls City area only got 4-6" after being in the 12-18" zone for several days, ouch. They had some mixing issues I believe. 4 Quote Snowfall in Lincoln, NE: 2017-18: 21.4" 2018-19: 55.5" 2019-20: 17.6" 2020-21: 49.4" 2021-22: 5.1" Average: 26" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy to think that! Jim Flowers was all over the fact that the models were way south with their prediction. It shows how experienced he is in the weather department. He even called the wrap around before any of the local mets picked up on it! I also give credit to the canadian and euro model. They pretty much nailed the storm from 5 days out. The GFS was south south the whole way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmahaSnowFan Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Melted down my snowfall and came up with .62" of liquid. So with my (once again measly) 8.5" of snow, that's at 13.7:1 ratio. I believe Jim Flowers even mentioned how this ended up being a much higher ratio snowfall than the 9 or 10:1 even he was predicting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted January 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 ORD FINALLY managed to score a 6" storm total with a final 2-day tally of exactly 6.0". It appears N COOK where I reside was near the epicenter of highest totals. There was a very sharp cut-off just south of the I-80 corridor. All in all, it was a pleasant storm even though it started off kinda shaky at the onset. Most of the heaviest snowfall happened between midnight and 8:00am. The models really didn't account for the northward bump till last minute. By in large, I think the Euro/EPS (and Canadian for that matter) did the best sniffing this storm 5+ days out, then the remaining models caught onto the storm. Inside 3 days, there were shifts back n forth but none of them except for inside 24 hours really accounted for the northward jog. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNebWeather Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 With the 2-3" more of snow last night, we have 14-15" on the ground. Most snow on the ground since Feb. 3rd, 2016. Local sheriff reports county roads still in rough shape, and I can say that town streets weren't much better this morning. Hopefully we get a repeat late next week. GFS and Canadian weren't really on board with the 12z runs. Will look to the Euro and then see how things change in the coming week. If nothing else, it looks like a very active pattern. Around here, late January - early April tend to be our best storms. Many dynamic storms/blizzards in this time frame. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
