mlgamer Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 It has been lightly snowing here for at least 30 minutes with no real accumulation to speak of. Looking at radar, we may be able to squeeze out an inch before it's over, but I don't expect much more than that. 2 Quote 23-24 seasonal snow total: 17.8" (as of 3/9/24) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the current time is is 18 here with light snow falling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 Looking at the latest RAP and HRRR, it sure seems like Wave 2 will be south of what Hastings has forecasted.

CentralNebWeather Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Hastings NE 553 PM CST Sat Feb 6 2021 ...Updating Snowfall Forecast... .UPDATE... Issued at 543 PM CST Sat Feb 6 2021 We plan to slide our heavier snow band for tonight a bit further south based on the 18Z NAM and the most recent runs of the HRRR and RAP. We will mainly be increasing snow amounts in the Hastings, Grand Island, Kearney area and on the south side of the current forecast snow band. Generally now expecting another 3-5 inches in the Tri-Cities tonight into Sunday morning. The best frontogenesis will be over our area around 3-6 AM Sunday morning and we will see most of the snow falling through a large dendritic growth zone given the very cold temperatures. Therefore, expect a nice 20:1 ratio making a light and fluffy snow. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted February 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Only picked up 0.5” of very fine powder today but it was enough to provide a fresh coating. It should be a nice looking morning sunrise along with the brutal subzero cold to come along with it. Was hoping to score a tad more out of today’s wave. It did look pretty, however, falling during most of the afternoon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Wave 2 has arrived. Forecast says another 3-5” at least tonight into Sunday morning. This is a dream pattern. Snow is like what you’d find in the Rockies. Easily 20:1 ratios or higher. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Snowed only 0.8” here with 0.10” liquid so the ratio was even less than 10:1. It was mostly pixi dust so flakes didn’t stack up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
